2000 vs 2001 S4 changes
Can someone tell me the difference between the 2000 and 2001 S4? What was "broken" in the 2000 S4 that was fixed in the 2001? What is still broken in the 2001?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Wastegate solenoid control valve "N75" mounting has improved.
This may be a running change in model year 2000. The pics here are a 01/00 S4 and a 08/01 A6 2.7T.
This is the old setup (the wire-tie is my addition to fix the part that broke in two):

The new setup has a funky rubber-band and additional bracket. This is probably intended to keep the strain off the brittle plastic "T" underneath that connects the vacuum line and control signal line to the wastegates.
