Wheel centres for standard S4 (B6) wheels.

Post by simonpa » Tue Oct 12, 2010 10:09 pm

Hi again,
when I bought my car, the wheel centres weren't fitted - the owner said they had been stolen and he had bought new ones (which he showed me), but didn't fit them in case they went again...

When I got the car home, i went to fit one, but it doesn't want to play (too loose).

The ones supplied sayA4 B6 and the part number on each is 8E0 601 165A.

Does anyone know if these are the correct ones?

Thanks all!

Cheers - Simon

I have just had one of the Audi badges stolen from one of the centre caps the other day and the whole centre cap is priced £18 from the dealer. There are sets of four on ebay for the B6 S4 but they are advertised for 17" wheels, I think they have dimensions on the listing. I steered clear of them incase they did not fit mine though.
Luckily I only need the one and will be getting it from the dealer.

I'm not near my car until tomorrow so if someone can check the part number of their's.
I suspect the previous owner bought the replacement caps after they were stolen and realised they didn't fit so said he didn't fit them incase they got stolen.

The centre caps for the 17" wheel may look the same, but they do not fit. I found this out from first hand experience!
