    It would be cool to see a video detailing the key differences between Audis and Volkswagens.

    To save jacking the car and removing the wheel you can just remove the headlights to gain access to those 3 inner bolts.

    • @HumbleMechanic
      @HumbleMechanic  Před 7 lety

      +Coldfin9er you have to remove the bumper to remove the headlights. With the wheels on, I'd turn the whee all the way to give more room.

    • @Coldfin9er
      @Coldfin9er Před 7 lety +1

      HumbleMechanic Not on the older B6 platforms my friend (couple of torx bolts and the connector and the light slides out past the bumper in situ), done it a few times that way on mine now! Still have the under tray to wrestle with though.

    @dufftime Před 7 lety

    thanks charles. i'll be doing the water pump/timing belt on my 99.5 B5 in the future. i thought removing the front bumper was going to be a PITA but looks really easy, thanks to you.

  • @ProjectCarTV
    @ProjectCarTV Před rokem

    Hey question on doing the timing belt, water pump and thermostat on a C5 Allroad. Do I have to remove the whole front bumper, radiator and everything or can it be done in the service position?

    • @rkan2
      @rkan2 Před rokem

      That is what the service position is for... But considering how easy it is to remove the whole thing to the side (without disconnecting AC lines) - I just usually take the whole thing off for the much better access.

  • @TigerBaron
    @TigerBaron Před 6 lety

    Yeah I have a question, how do you do it for a 1995 A6 C4 Audi lol.

    @mansochannel9199 Před 4 lety

    I’m having a hard time to put the bumper back on after putting the front end in service position. Those two long bolts that go close to the fog lights I can’t alignment them for sh*t any tips?

  • @madamevaughn1
    @madamevaughn1 Před 5 lety

    This video was better than removing the headlights to get to the three bolts.guess it depends on high up the car is sitting

    @LionelM3ssi10 Před 6 lety

    does this apply to every audi? I have a 2014 audi Q5 that might need a bumper change, and I was wondering if I could apply the same technique

    • @HumbleMechanic
      @HumbleMechanic  Před 6 lety

      No I think that one is different

    • @oodragondrew
      @oodragondrew Před 6 lety

      HumbleMechanic is it possible to take the metal crossmember out of the bumper? I am just trying to replace the shell not the crossmember. just curious! Thanks! :)

  • @kidzero1943
    @kidzero1943 Před 7 lety

    u think I could swap engine (4cyl) from a Passat to A4 with different engine codes?

    • @HumbleMechanic
      @HumbleMechanic  Před 7 lety

      +kidzero1943 most likely but you'll need other hard parts like ECM.

    Nice video. Should add a note that this doesn't cover all Audis. The B5 A4 has bumper clips instead of the nuts and studs. 👍🏼

    Hi thereI have just removed my "front bumper" BUT I did not have any of those long bolts 😐😐😐Can you remember what year that car was, I fully appreciate that it was first "Published on 13 Dec 2016" and you have slept since then, my vehicle is a A3 1.9Tdi 2009 plate, as a final thought I did it with BOTH wheels on and turning them lock to lock as requiredTony

    It should be three bolts on each side not two and at the bottom left corner in the bottom right corner you pull out wood to release the tab before pulling forward

    German-eering at its finest! I spell German cars CRAP. I think Audi should look at my Ford Ranger to see how headlights should be. Lift the hood pull the two headlamp release tabs and pull the whole assembly straight out, no tools required...Brilliant system. Way to go FORD. Germans are famous for taking something simple and complicating the fuck out of it at the customers expense.
