There are two airbag modules, one up to chassis 4B-1-106 259 and another from that. I can ask my breaker if they have one, but you will need to colect it, they are not allowed in most parcel companies.

Mine is part nr 4B1880204A
Can i use 4B1880204C ?


And about chassis nr. mine is WAUZZZ4BZWN047516. The one you are talking about is that 4B047516 ? I have seen some part shop talk about chassis number but never understands it.

I am nor from UK so your lokal braker is no use to me, but thanks

Sorry, I was looking for allroads, not for A6s.

4B1880204A airbag unit, only order for immediate installation, F 4B-W-039 449>> 4B-W-076 552 lhd

4B1880204C airbag unit, only order for immediate installation, F >> 4B-W-039 448 lhd

"C" airbags are up to WAUZZZ4BZWN039448. Your car is newer. I don't know what is the diference betwen the years, sorry.

The only one I can find in eBay is in Spain: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/AIRBAG-DELANTERO-IZQUIERDO-AUDI-A6-BERLINA-1-8-T-Ano-1998-Ref-4B1880204A/272873684985?hash=item3f8889fff9:g:krYAAOSwynRZ1Mz E

Thanks for answer. So i need the A-version ? If i go to my local braker and find a var between F 4B-W-039 449>> 4B-W-076 552 There should be the right module in the car ?

Most of the time, they are just different connectors or a diferent mounting bracket. Sometimes is just a factory change.

So it can be the case that they all can fit ? the reason the number is diffrent is just as it is a newer item ? When i see on pics, the all seems the same, same connector, same mounting bracket, same shape.

The one from italy cost 80EUR in shipping.....
