[Error404]

thanks

OEM filter for this housing is 8A0819439 (paper only) or 8A0819439B (with activated carbon). That parts catalog picture is just for illustration purposes and misleading badly (as usual ).

[Nj]

I received this from Audi today and thought i'd share the part numbers in case they are ever useful for someone else.

First 3 are variations of the filter. standard, carbon and... something else.
8A0819441A is the housing/frame thing that I have to change.
8A0819497 seems to be temp gauge
Then there are air ducts for inside the car. i'm not planning on changing those
Then a couple of climate control units at almost a grand each. yoiks!
Then 8A0820177AA is apparently "Injector Nozzle, expansion valve"
8A0820191AB, 8A0820191B and 8A0820193AB - receiver dryers

That clip #49 appears to hold the filter housing frame thing to the bit below. The exploded diagram made me think it was supposed to hold it to the filter, or some kind of uber-filter with bits sticking out of it. This picture made me understand better.


No sign of the clip on that list of parts though

[Error404]

That's why I said don't forget the clip

[Nj]

Now that I know what it is and where it goes I won't forget it
Although I don't know how the hell to order it without a part number and especially if it's N/A now

Do you reckon it would be possible to make some clips from either headlight glass retaining clips or maybe airbox clips?

I need a couple too....

Cunning plan Baldrick I was thinking along the same lines. I have spare headlights and air box for the A4 so I'll investigate to see if any of those could be modified. And if they work i'll send you a couple. If they don't work I can still send you a couple if you like

[Monkeymagic]

Does anyone know the part number for the metal clip? I've just got hold of a housing.

[Error404]

It's NLA

[Nj]

it's weird that the original non-cabin filter housings aren't held on with that sale clip eh?

[Monkeymagic]

Is there a substitute. It does look very similar to the later air box clips.

[Nj]

If I had access to a scrappie these days I would check a couple of A4s etc to see if they have the same on their cabin filter housings. I'm going to check the clips on an old pair of a4 headlights and an a4 airbox tomorrow to see if any of those will work. I'll let you know how I get on.

[Monkeymagic]

Good man. I have a b5 rs4 I'll check that too..

[Nj]

weekend ran away and I ended up not having a chance to check other clips. I should be able to do so later this week though when I get back from my current business trip.
