Do you know if there is OE part numbers reference manual/software available anywhere?

Thanks,

Nevermind, found this one on ebay:



Should include "..detailed illustrations of all body parts on the car, and also include part numbers, descriptions, prices, and very important labor costs associated with the installation..."

I was just getting in the bind with finding some little parts with out the OE#, such as Injector clips, fan shroud clips etc, want to renew most of the hardware... This manual was cheap, will see if its any good.

make sure u get the latest one they update that huge book alot

 

Search on ebay for "ETKA" which is the database program that the dealerships use. However, it only goes through 2001. The ETKA that the dealers use now is entirely web-based. Also, you got to install it on a Windows 98 machine. I never was able to install it on an NT, W2K, or XP machine.

 

they are handy my uncle has a collection of those books at his shop

 

The current ETKA is not entirely web based. It is a database and graphic program that they get every 3 to 4 months on CD and they get small daily updates. I just got the September 2005 ETKA for USA VW and AUDI update 640. It is indespensible on fixing your car. It has exploded views on every model year by year. You can enter the VIN and it knows your car. You can enter a part name or part number and it shows you where the part goes, how it fits, etc....
