Default Stealerships are full of idiots. Does anybody know where I can get the fuel sender seal kit online?

I called the stealers and asked if they had the seal kit in stock, he quotes me a price for a fuel sender. I tell him no, the gasket and cap and he says it only comes with a fuel sender. What an idiot.

I can find the seal online, but not the cap. I need the cap also because mine has cracks in it. Any ideas?

Default The usual suspects...

Carson Heter at Riverside Audi (not an idiot), Worldimpex, genuineaudiparts. Do you have a part number for the cap?

Default Aren't the part #'s on the Audipages parts list?

If your talking about the ring cap the part numbers are (right side) 4D0 201 375 A and (left side) 321 201 375 A. You may want to look at the picture on the PDF (2nd page from bottom).<ul><li><a href="http://www.audipages.com/Tech_Articles/audi_parts_manual.pdf">Parts List</a></li></ul>

Yep and they are in the FA too. The question still remains at least for me.

In the picture on Audipages I see the part number on the bag, but I looked it up on genuineaudiparts.com and found nada. So i just put it on search on the same site under VW parts and found it. I suppose the part is the same.

Default Had to same kind of experience. They told me you can't get just the seal but it would come in a fuel

gasket repair kit. Oh by the way it was $150. So I waited 3 days and got the kit and it did not come with the seal. The parts supervisor then found the seal and the cap for $20. Its the parts counter guy who is lets say unexperienced.
