Hi

Sorry to be a pain, but can anyone point me towards a link or other information on how to remove the front bumper? I need to replace the horns on my car next week so the bumper has to come off and I really really don't want to damage it.

Cheers

for FAQ's sake.

Mmm. RS6.com seems to be definitively dead and all the tutorials linked to there are no longer visible. Maybe someone's got a pdf copy? Mav?

I might have one myself.

Pretty much the same as this..

pdf attached.

Or if anyone wants a copy of elsawin, which is the full workshop manual for everything audi - PM me. It's a 5Gb download and needs a windows PC or Laptop.

Rescued it:

That's a good guide.

Thanks for the guide! It has been great to see it all in one place. otherwise, you can go down every rabbit hole.

It was working on the guides last week

Doesn't anyone use Total Technik as his videos are pretty informative?

Looks like a good resource. I'm pretty sure I've come across his videos before but didn't realise there were so many.

My problem is that I hate YouTube tutorials. Often I just need a tiny bit of info and have to sit through a whole video to get the info I need (or not, as is often the case). A good written procedure you can skim and come back to the useful bit. I'll always to try find written info before resorting to YouTube, but that's just me.

I used to hate em. But, have also found instances where a minor nuance on a tricky bit is easily overlooked in a written guide.
The "is it meant to look like that" moment.

You know they've had fast forward since Betamax and V2000 days, Ben? 🥳

I made a jig using 2 scissor jacks on a frame with wheels and a a plank of MDF wrapped in foam. I can set the jig at the perfect height and angle to remove or fit the bumper. It's now an easy one person job.
