A 2 litre petrol turbo model then. That is correct, the right shows the Secondary Air System pump and the left shows the intercooler.

This is 2.0 TDI 2006, should be this uncovered and open for any stones etc ???

Still correct, it was just that the pulsation damper looked like a secondary air pump in that picture.

Hi,

I just dug out a picture of my old 2005 A6 2.0 TDi, and you can see mine was enclosed on both sides. Maybe it's because it was an S-Line not an SE?

Well its all about engine cool isnt so doesn't matter if SE or S-line these are the same engines just different styling of bumper and other bits but not engine.I'm prete sure that Audi Bedford play with me but they loose and will regret to put me this b...... that this part of design

I will have to eat humble pie here, I get your car as having grill 4F0 807 682 D 01C with 4F0 807 246 01C going behind it, described as “cover, cooling air grill-right, for cars with the BRE engine” so according to ETKA, something is missing.

I was going to say this is normal.

Obviously not.

Although my PD130 does have 1 trim on one side, and doesn't have one on the other.

Anyone else got a PD130 to confirm it? ;)
