Default So as I was changing my coolant reservoir I noticed some MY changes.
Had the wife's car open to check it over since I was under my hood, not only did the PS reservoir change from 96-97 but so did the washer bottle and the hose from the coolant tank to the lower cross pipe.. looks like the washer bottle was change to accommodate the new hose location

Default The 5 cylinder cars have a hydraulic brake booster.
<edit> ok, I see you included "and brakes"...

Note no big vacuum unit:

The meyle reservoir that was installed was actually a factory audi part with the audi part # and logo melted off and the meyle logo silk screened on.

The five cylinder cars used hydraulic brakes instead of vacuum because the engines didn't suck =)

Default Mmmm TDS-1.
I want. Do you still sell these, or 034 did for a while right? I don't see them on their site now.

Default 034 sold them for a while, but not anymore.
I've made a few recently. Depends on free time, etc.
