Re: B.5,5 AIRBAG SEATS
Don't solder the wires, they work of resistance soldering them will cause a resistance in the circuit for the wires causing a light on the dash or airbag may deploy, I would use some heat shrink connectors, got loads spare if you need any pm me.

Re: Front mount intercooler
Yes I can get one for free, just wasn't sure it would be as good/better than a universal kit.

Re: Turbo 1.9 tdi
I used all new gaskets 1 for the exhaust cat/done pipe, 2 for the turbo return, the feed pipe had 2 metal washers on the oil filter housing and to the turbo it's a 17 mm nut and the pipe is flared with no gasket similar to a brake pipe.

You can pull the disk off and you might have to tap the new one on with a rubber mallet or hammer.

Re: Rear brakes on Audi A4 B7 avant help needed....
Not sure not taken one off for a while possibly Allen key or 16,18 mm socket, but you usually don't need to remove the carrier.

Re: Rear brakes on Audi A4 B7 avant help needed....
They are the same setup on the calipers but you may have to remove the carrier to get the disk off, you may be able to squease the disk on/off without taking the carrier off.

Re: clutch replacement ?
It should be a external slave cylinder, only thing I can think of is to not trap the wiring or pipes on refitting the gearbox I use some silicone spray lube on the pipes and wires to help get it past and over the box when fitted, would also recommend a long extension and wobble head to get all the b...
