Default I'll try the valve body mod..

See the url below.

I just wondered if anyone has old parts from a valve body rebuild they could donate? Just the plastic orifices.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a8/msgs/169064.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/a8/msgs/169064.phtml</a</li></ul>

Which "button" do you need?

I have some, and have friends at Sonnax.

Default I want to replace one, maybe two.

The valve body button sizes are 1.0, 1.2, 1.4, 1.5 and D=2.2. I believe color coded. The problem is, until I open up the valve body, I won't know which button I need.

My plan is to break open the valve body, trace out the EDS4 to WK-V line, replace the existing button with a larger one and put it back together. If it solves my problem, without doing anything else (including reusing the oil), I will have my answer.

So, I need all the sizes. Used (donated) buttons would be preferable, so that it doesn't cost anyone anything.

If Sonnax has a few to throw away, I would love them. Keep your own buttons; you may want them later for future mods.

If you think you can figure out the button I need from the valve body you have on your bench, that would save me some guessing? I wouldn't trust the .pdf's we have for solenoid\regulator location though.
