ETKA help . . . washer reservoirs for B5 A4 1.8t, S4, RS4 differ from B5 A4 2.8's?

Dear friends,

In order to avoid making a bracket and squeezing my Amsoil bypass filter in an awkward position, I would like to see if our B5 "siblings" use the same or a different washer reservoir as they use the same space for an intercooler.

Part numbers please!

Thanks,

JWG

Need year of the B5s you're asking about. My ETKA shows a couple of reservoirs...

depending on the size (e.g., 3L, 5L, 6L, etc.) Also, there are differences if headlight washer system is installed. Here are some part numbers for a '96 w/ headlight washer system installed as a sampler:

8D0 955 453A
8D0 955 453F
8D0 955 453E

Please give me all the data you have, 3l, 5l, & 6l for all years, so I know . . .

how many different windshield washer reservoirs Audi made for the B5 platform and can make an intelligent decision about which one to use for my needs.

I saw a photo of the S4 reservoir and it looked a lot smaller than mine; something like that may become my ticket to an easy oil by-pass filter install.

So, if you could give me capacities and part numbers for all B5 platforms with headlight washer systems, I would deeply appreciate it.

Thanks!
