Cheers! So do I!

Dummi, the gears all went in fine and look good ... so, so far so good.

Box has been picked up and on its way on the ferry tonight I hope

Although, we have the Manx Grand Prix (smaller version of the TT) and the main race day is tomorrow, which kinda slows up deliveries since the parcel depot is blocked in by the racing!!! ARGGG!!

nice one dude, the 362D gear confused me, i am supposing cos my etka is incomplete it shows up as the 6th gear in a fwd box, the 365J shows as the 6th for the quattro

shhhhhhh! Stop it man! ur scaring me here!!!!!!!!!!

I am just praying when I select that 6th gear is works!!!! EEK!

But, I suppose the thing is, the gear could also be out of a quattro box?? What does your etka say the lay shaft 6th gear is for the quattro box?

Cheers guys, only one little problem... the bleed valve for the clutch is plastic! arg, and the nipple was already nearly rounded, so, had to use vise grips to bleed the clutch, anyway, it was too much for it and it snapped off!!

Lets face it, not many places to find an RS4 clutch bleed valve on a sat at 4pm on the Isle of Man!!

But, some super glue did it, and I used the "washer" off the bleed valve to open and close it, it worked

WE HAVE LIFT OFF!!

Engine is running, all is looking good!!!

Only one issue, hope someone can shed some light ...

Front half shafts to gearbox bolts, 55 NM? This being the case, what torx are they? I was using 50, and it was slipping, so I either need 52 torx or close, or some new bolts ... Any ideas?????

Cheers
