Default Help with a 1998 2.8 quattro

Hi,

Have just purchased a 1998 A4, 2.8 quattro, but can't seem to find a Haynes Workshop Manual for it. I was wondering if anyone knows of any workshop manual which covers the 2.8 V6 engine, and the quattro system. From what I gather the Haynes manuals only over the standard FWD and the four cylinder engines.

Cheers,

David

There is no Haynes manual for the B5 A4 (afaik)

However, there is something better ... http://www.ross-tech.com/Merchant2/m...gory_Code=Audi

Happy ordering.

Thanks for the help. However I forgot to state that I own a UK car, and I'm not sure that the Bentley manual covers UK cars, as far as I know.

Thanks again, and sorry for the confusion.

Bentley cover the car because 2.8 was intended for the states and the 2.6 for the UK
