Default Do you think Audi dealer can be trusted with this intall? They're taking the mani out, but I'm not

sure if I should be asking them to install the spacer.

Default It's easy to do, but it depends on your dealer, and how they handle things they are unfamiliar with.

90% of the work will be done if your manifold is coming out. The spacer goes in much like (and in addition to) the gasket they need to replace anyway. The bolts and nuts will be new, and the front right corner bolt must NOT be reused - they should be made aware of these items...
