I've done this before, but only with the engine and transmission already out. I got the piston a little.crooked when retracting it and it popped back and broke the ring land that holds the piston...

Did you remove the plug in the crankshaft before you installed the flywheel? Also used thread locker and proper torching sequence on the flywheel bolts?
These are now sold.
I've got a set of set of 4 stock wheels for sale.
I have had these for about 8 years and they were originally professionally refinished by Hubcap Heaven in Penn Hills, PA. Curbage and other...
Hah. I bet that was it.
Looked to be Avus with Euro 5 spokes.
Looked clean.
If you are the new owner, enjoy.
Did you buy directly form Hotchkis? I think I bought mine from Summit Racing. They are such a heavy hitter that they may have had stock or work closely to drop ship with Hotchkis.
I used Bell P/N A300090100 which are pretty much flush in thickness with the end tanks.
You can actually go the next thicker size and 'stretch' the welds.
I think it's a fair price. Includes the adapter kit, clutchmasters clutch and Nubcake tune.
Additional hardware costs (and additional time) add up when it's also recommended to replace the...
Was Apikol able to give you any support?
As far as I can remember, the Wagner kits seem to be the most complete aftermarket ones out there. The fact that they supply new ducting is a good...
I've gone on record quoting $8k out the door for the conversion if they deliver the car to me and allow me to use used parts for the axles, prop shaft and transmission. The variable is the...
To the original question, how many C5 RS6s are left?
I'm exaggerating of course, but based on the amount of partout threads on AZ, you would think that there are none left on the road.
Same for...
It depends on your level of comfort with a few things, but you can use the radiator from the A6 4.2.
It involves blocking off the after-run pump and switched valve among other things.
Non-hot...
I've got a used 4B3807285G from an ebony pearl effect car.
I'll PM you with my email address if you want to see pictures of it.
I'm tired of looking at these and don't have the heart to throw them away
I was gonna ask about the Mk4 R32. lol.
So you will keep the one that you do not sell?
I was looking for a white one but with black interior.
Has any PM engine work been done? Namely the...
The fuel lines run adjacent to the main wiring to the alternator so I'm concerned just as much about this as I am the fuel lines.
the lines and the wires can all be removed without removing the...
You could actually crank the engine over if all the cams, timing belt and plugs are removed. All the valves will remain closed so there's no risk for interference.
It's probably not worth it...
I think what you have in the picture looks good.
I've never had any issue with starter engagement, even though there is some wiggle room. Axially it's fixed and the guide says it shouldn't...
The clutch line is essentially a brake line with brake fluid so it should be comparable to the brake lines when it comes to heat resistance. The issue I've seen is with used 2.7t slave lines that...
I assume that you are going to use a new replacement when you re-install it? Check to see that the accompanying stud is inserted far enough. If too much of it is sticking out, then it could be...
At this point, you can get new vibrant flex joints but chances are they will not match the exact dimensions of what you have now.
I'd still recommend the XSpower ones. The left front O2 sensor...
I actually listened to your feedback and have changed out all the hardware so that none of the existing bolts are used. I just needed to personally verify whether some of the 75mm long stock bolts...
I've often thought of this but have not way of proving whether the conduction causes any appreciable difference in temperature to harm anything. It's the supply line so in essence it's elevating the...
It seems that all the 4.2 radiators have the loop for trans cooling (or warming).
I haven't really done any research to see if the C5 S6 manual in the Euro III zone cars had manual trans cooling...
