    6sp question for those that did the work themselves

    Ok, I've got the shorter S4 speed/flywheel sensor but it is still too long (S. Kendrish kit). Do you have to shim the sensor or is there an even shorter S4 special part #?

    I did a shim on both of my cars. One was with SteveKen's kit, the other without.
    EDIT: used a thicker version of this: https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-...cer/078906435/

    Thanks, I ordered that one. I'll use some putty and measure it and see how it goes. Maybe I'll need two?

    I suppose, it could be fine with a shorter sensor and this shim. Not 100% sure, however. I see no issues with using 2 if necessary.

    I don't recall needing a shim. I used a sensor from a 2000 A6 6-speed, and a Euro DQT transmission, and it plugged right in.

    Yea, I should probably emphasize on the fact, that I retained RS6 CPS.

    Thanks everybody. I've got a new S4 CPS as I new it was shorter than the RS6 CPS but never knew I needed the spacer until I measured it this last weekend. Spacer is on order. I need to get this engine/tranny back in the car.
