Radiator replacement
Radiator on my 2000 A8 has been oozing slightly at the endtank. Bought a replacement radiator and figure I better stop putting this job off. So, How do you replace the radiator on this thing? Do you really have to take the front bumper off? (pretty sure the smart answer is yes, but I'm no too bright.) Anything unusual to watch out for?
Thanks,
Brian C.

It's pretty easy
I did one on a 98 before, you don't have to remove the front end, but I believe the front bumper. It just has a few fastners holding it in.
You will have to take the mechanical fan off.
See audipages "body" section for the procedure on how to take the front end off to see how to remove the bumper.
