Pics. My Audi A4 8H

Hello:

This is my 2004 Audi A4 8h, currently I installed the 19" wheels, European head lights, 2011 rear tail light and change the CVT to a manual 5spd. Next is engine and interior work. Enjoy the Pics, opinions are welcome.

For the transmission swap I sent the car to EA Tuning a specialized shop here in PR. But the process was very straight forward the manual tran. I used is a DVX series it fitted with out problem the axles are from S4 B5, the pedals fit directly because the body has the mounting brackets, the line for the clutch master cylinder is from the rear of the break fluid reservoir there is a nipple in there. Then you have to reprogram the ABS, Cluster and ECU the codes are posted in Audizine forum. Let me know if you have any other question.

That seems very direct. There was a change-over from CVT to manual documented here a few years ago that made it seem as complicated as an Apollo moon mission.
