Hi, is this for the audi quattro a4 1997? thanks nice video.
Why do you use an air gun to torque down the bolts instead of a torque wrench. You can snap bolts easy if you don’t use a torque wrench
You don't replace the nuts and bolts, is it ok to use the old ones.
Problem solved! The noise is a badly worn (rubber) differential mount leaving metal on metal. You know the song. That's why when loading the left side noise momentarily disappears. Cheers.
You're welcome and thanks for answering. Watched your well produced demo with interest. I own an older A4 2.8l quattro with (not bearing) rear end noise. It's a '99 and when loading the left side noise goes away. As stated, changing the bearing made no difference. Noise changes with speed indicating a moving part. Could be CV axle rubbing as it has (right side) broken spring however the car doesn't appear to sag. I also have considered it may be a noisy pinion gear. differential bearing or bad bushing. Fairly loud (prop plane) rubbing noise. New springs and shocks are en route but suspect it may be something else. Any insight and/or videos would be enlightening. Cheers.
The part no. for these Bilstein rear shock is #19184050.
Bilstein and Monroe….the worst shocks ever…..i thought bilstein will do good but in 25.000km it shat itself…in front i have sachs, still doing the hard work…i should have bought sachs to the rear too…bilstein was cheap but rubish…never again..sachs for life. Hope i helped someone with my experience. Cheers !
What is the brand of spring compressor are you using? I would like to get one.
Hey, thanks for the video with your robot mechanic 🙂 I replaced the rear shocks on my '98 A4 B5 quattro last year, and installed Bilsteins just like your video. 500 miles later, one of the bump stops split in half from top to bottom. The other side's bump stop is compressed but not broken. It turns out that the Bilstein bump stops are significantly longer that the OE Sachs bump stops, which significantly reduces the possible amount of travel when compared to OE. What are your thoughts on Bilstein vs Sachs in this particular application?
diffrent then a b5 from a friend of mine no quattro
Very good tutorial but this is for quattro only.
Be nice if you listed if this was for a FWD or quattro
Well made and easy to follow. Thanks!
