A4 cabriolet heater hose part numbers

[mhobson]

There is a coolant leak on my wife's 2006 Audi A4 quattro S-Line cabriolet, 3.0tdi ASB motor. WAUZZZ8H47K017097

The leak is at the back of the engine from a heater hose which appears to have a plastic connection at the end, hoses seem to go up into the scuttle beside the battery. I wonder if they might be different from a saloon or estate, do they have the battery in the rear.

I suspect that these parts may only be available from Audi, and would appreciate to know what the part numbers for each of the two heater hoses might be.

Thank you.

The two hoses going into the plenum chamber then bulkhead to the matrix fitting which sticks out and are 8E1 819 371 AA feed and 8E1 819 373 AH return. There are two other hoses further back to the engine pipework, 8E0 819 672 feed and 8E0 819 673 return. All are obsolete from Audi main dealers, all four are available from Audi Tradition who are Audi saviours.

Thank you for that Crasher, that being the case, please could you direct me to Audi Tradition, being in France I wonder how long it might take to get the parts. Very useful, Thank you. M

It will be easier than in the UK, since a tiny majority of xenophobic nationalists voted to leave the EU, dealing with Tradition in the UK (except Northern Ireland) has become nearly impossible; I only know of one other person than myself who has persevered to make it happen. I have a big delivery coming next Thursday.
