Default Help finding Audi Petcock / Radiator Plug

Hey guys.

The red plastic radiator petcock plug on my 1998 A4 2.8L V6 broke and now I can't hold fluid.

I have looked all over online for this part. None of the sites seem to carry the style I need.

I called the local dealer and they say they only sell them with new radiators (yeah right!).

Does anyone know where I can get my hands on one of these?

I attached a picture of it.

This is the drain plug that is in the lower drivers-side corner and unscrews to the front, allowing water to drain from the side of the radiator.

Thanks for the help.

Jim

OK Guys. I have been looking everywhere for this thing. I came across this plug for a Mercedes. It looks the same except for one small area just past the threads... My old one in the picture is missing the last o-ring. I cant tell much from the picture.

I'm thinking about just buying the damn thing for the 11 bucks and giving it a shot.

What do you think?
