Rs4 coolant tank cover
Does anyone have a cover over there coolant tank or painted it black? I go to car shows and would be quite nice to have the bonnet up but the coolant tank just completely ruins the look for me
Re: Rs4 coolant tank cover
Fit a new one for £20 and it wont look so bad.
Failing that someone on here did make a cover for theirs but can't remember who.

After paying over £30 for an incorrect one off ebay it turns out Audi sell them for about £18.

Re: Rs4 coolant tank cover
The coolant cap is an R8 one - you either have to disassemble it or the oil cap to orientate correctly.
Agree buy from Audi and very easy job to fit - you just need something to suck the coolant out of the tank with and some pliers to un clip the hoses.
If you have someone to help you hold the hoses up while you swap them you can do the job without losing a drop of coolant (empty into a bottle/clean bucket and put it back in afterwards).
I used this to remove the coolant

Re: Rs4 coolant tank cover
No the cap is from an R8. Can't remember how much it was; either the oil or coolant cap is quite cheap (circa 20 or 30 pounds) but the other one is about £80.
The coolant cap will fit as standard but the picture will be at 90 degrees. Simple mod to fix.

Without meaning to sound rude unless your car its supercharged or really something special under bonnet I wouldn't
bother opening it at shows as you will get nicer pics of the car with it closed imo
