How do you change the headlight bulb on a 2003 Audi A4 1.9 TDI?
A4 Cabriolet 2003 1 - Identify which bulb is burned out and write it down. Diagram if you need to. Low Beam "H7" or High Beam "H9" 2 - Masking tape around paint so as to protect the paint finish. All around 3 - Unscrew top two screws. 4 - Uncsrew bottom screw behind the unit, but leave screw in place. (careful not to loosen it to much....as it will drop(did that) 5 - Start to pull forward the entire unit with both hands. 6 - Angle as follows... Left hand back, Right hand forward. It has to come out in an angle. Don't pull out all the way. 7 - Unplug with a screw driver and force the electrical connector that gives power to the lights. 8 - Continue to pull forward the unit until removed. 9 - Place on towel, t-shirt, etc, upside down. 10 - Open the back cover by unsnapping it. 11 - Find bulb location to be replaced, and replace. (don't touch the bulb itself) 12 - Reverse all your steps and you are done! Good luck... If you follow the directions it should be a 15 minute job.
if it has a "tape" style window regulator, it may have jumped a few teeth, or broken a few off. try removing the door panel and inspecting the track for this. it is also possible that the seal around the window is gummed up, causing the window to "bind". this can be rectified by cleaning the inside of the seal thoroughly, and lubricating with a silicone based spray. rickyriot@comcast.net == New Answer Headline = GO TO A HYUNDAI DEALER AND PURCHASE A POWER WINDOW REGULATOR UPPER ROLLER REPAIR KIT FOR BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT FRONT WINDOWS. THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE UPPER ROLLER IS BROKEN AND NOT ALLOWING THE CABLE TO TRAVEL CORRECTLY. YOU WILL NEED A DRILL, CENTER PUNCH, AND A 14MM AND A 10MM WRENCH.
Where is the crank shaft sensor located on a 2001 Pontiac Bonneville?

How do you replace the front turn signal bulb located on a 2004 Audi A4?
This is a frustrating task, that took me 30 minutes. Hopefully I can help reduce the time it takes you.The owners' manual says something about "modern" cars should have bulbs replaced by the dealer. In all honesty, if your dealer will do it for $20, leave it to them! Tools Needed: "star" screwdriver bit - # 3 I think. A drill bit extension at least 8" long. a flashlight or forehead light that can be pointed hands free (or a friend to hold it) and possibly a 12" screwdriver or similar - to lift a washer. These instructions are based on the passenger side front turn signal. Raise hood, and look at the top of the light unit. There are two "star" head screws. check you have the correct bit to fit these. Remove these two completely. There is an air intake diagonally across and behind the headlight. look down below the points where this meets the bodywork. You need to get to the screws 6" below. this is where you need the bit extension. These two screws should be loosened, NOT removed. To reach the inboard screw, I had to shine the light from the radiator side, bringing my head down low to see the screw, and gently ease the screwdriver down from the top until I could line it up with the screw head. At this point it's OK to curse Audi, and wish the entire board of directors spend eternity in hell, being forced to replace bulb after bulb. You can now pull the headlight unit forward, more on the outside edge, so that you can get to the back of it. On the outside edge, you can see a vertical, thin plastic strip. Give this a quarter turn, and remove the bulb holder - I had to move mine back into the engine compartment before lifting it out. Replace the bulb - it's a "push in" type, that you can't put in the wrong way. Put back the bulb holder, and TEST THE TURN SIGNAL before you re-assemble. Getting the headlight back in is not my idea of entertainment. You have to look down and line up the tabs with the two bottom screws - the ones you didn't remove, just loosen. I had the flashlight in my mouth, a knee on the headlight to push, and a screwdriver down by the screw, lifting the washer which is meant to go above the tab. Make sure BOTH tabs are back around the screws. Tighten these bottom screws - not too much torque or you'll disturb the headlight's aim. Replace the top screws, wash your hands, and congratulate yourself with a beer. using your flashlight, look do ----
Additional comment: assuming this task on an 2002 A4 Avant is essentially the same, I would recommend you loosen up the air intake on the radiator side by removing the screw right on the top front side of it the fixes its position, and then carefully remove the air intake leading down toward the engine; note there is a little clip/tab that hold it in place against some small hose assembly, it lifts out easily except for that tab.
I would recommend moving the air intake for a couple reasons:
1) It makes getting to the screws that the gentleman above needed an extension for much easier and possible with a 'standard' 8-in-ish long screwdriver; also i needed a monkey wrench to get enough leverage on the initial turn the screwdriver
2) there was an extremely clogged filter in the intake that I was pleased to discover and get a chance to clean out. I'm no expert but I'd bet cleaning an extremely clogged intake filter will give me some more power and/or efficiency.
And it really wasn't difficult.
What is the function of a crankcase sensor in a 2005 Audi A4 1.8T Cabriolet do?
There's no such thing as a crankcase sensor as engine sensors are normally defined by their function rather than what they are mounted to. What you are probably referring to is the knock sensor which is usually mounted on the side of the engine block. The knock sensor monitors detonation/pinging/pre-ignition and is used by the engine management system to offset the ignition timing.

How do you go about fixing headlights on an Audi A4?
For 2007 A4 turbo
Do not remove entire headlight housing, that would be a waste of your time. (see below for 2001-2005 removal which is different)
1.To give yourself some room to work, remove plastic cover with green cap sticking through it. Its located just behind the headlight housing. Pull away from vehicle and up, it just slides off.
1a. If you are working on passenger side, remove air intake instead.
2. Un-clip and remove plastic cover from back of housing for the bulb you wish to replace.
3. Remove electrical connection and clip from back of bulb. Connector slides straight back, clip moves in a hook shape.
4. Replace bulb (H7). Do not touch the glass, finger oil + halogen = premature failure. Clean with rubbing alcohol if necessary.
5. Replace covers in reverse order.
AnswerFor an Audi A4 year 2001-2005:There are 4 torx screws that hold the head light unit in place, you need to remove the complete unit to gain access to the bulbs by using a T-27 torx head screwdriver.
1. you will have to mask off the bumper under the head light first, this will stop you damaging the paintwork.
2. you now have to pull off the electrical connector block this is done by squeezing the small bridge on the side of the block (this is not always necessary to do as you may be able to have a person hold it for you when you remove the headlight assembly).
3. remove the top 2 torx screws completely, then slacking off the bottom 2 screws but don't remove them. You will need a T-27 torx screwdriver at least 8" long to reach the bottom screw(s) to have enough handle to turn.
4. now slowly pull the head light unit out being careful not to damage the paintwork.
5. lay the unit on a towel to stop it from damaging whilst you un-clip the back cover, these bulbs are H7 55 watt.
6. replace bulb and reinstall same as removal. job done.
Words of wisdom: While you have the housing out spend the few extra bucks and replace the other bulbs (blinker and low beam light) as they will soon need to be replaced as well.
AnswerThe two bolts at the rear can be difficult to locate first time. Looking at the nearside headlight the left hand side one is level with the base of the headlight about halfway along its side. The right hand side bolt is hidden below the cables that come out of the inner wing and run directly behind the lamp cover. You'll need to cut the clip holding the the wires in place to gain access. Matchstick fingers are also handy! Use a LONG T-27 torx screwdriver... do not attempt without one!! Answer for 2005 A4Generally follow the directions for 2001-2005 above, but I found these differences on my 2005 A4 cabriolet (convertible). Found this on the passenger side headlamp only; didn't try the driver side, yet!1. There are just 3 torx screws (not 4) holding the passenger side headlamp in place, 2 on top and only 1 on bottom.
2. I did not need to pull off the electrical connector block.
3. I did need to remove the plastic intake vent, exactly as described in step #2 below for the 2003 A4, but you don't need to remove the third vent piece on the left. You will find the 1 bottom torx screw beneath the accordion connector piece. Loosen it, but do not unscrew it completely.
4. Again, there is no 4th torx screw (2nd bottom torx screw) beneath the left piece of the vent as described in step 4 for the 2003 A4 below. Continue with steps # 4, 5, 6 for the 2001 - 2005 above.
Answer for 2003 A4This info is for replacing the left (as you look at front of car from outside) headlight bulbs (and other bulbs as well):1. Open the hood, the 2 upper torx (T-27) screws for headlight assembly are easy to spot. Remove those screws. I was able to use an Allen key of appropriate size as I didn't have the right torx tool.
2. To get to the lower screws, you need to remove the plastic intake vent. There are two Philips head screws along on the right from the torx ones you just removed, remove those. The vent is in 3 pieces, 2 rigid and one accordion-like connector between them. I could not figure out how to remove the piece on the left, but the one that was attached by the screws and the accordion piece were easy to get out.
3. Under the right vent piece you removed is the 3rd torx screw, lower down. You only need to loosen this, not remove it, as mentioned above.You need a LONG torx T-27 screwdriver at least 8" long to do this properly. I would recommend lubricating all the screws with WD-40 or equivalent prior to removing all screws.
4. This is the hard part. Since I couldn't remove the left piece of the vent, and it obscures the last lower screw, I had to attach my Allen key with tape to a long handled flat blade screwdriver, such that the elbow of the Allen key was leveraged against the blade to provide resistance against the counter-clockwise twist needed to loosen the screw. Fortunately the screw wasn't really tight so it loosened without breaking the tape.( It might work, but I would not recommend doing this. Instead go to the auto parts or hardware store and get a T-27 torx screwdriver (5$-10$) as long as possible. If you strip the screw you are out of luck big time for ever trying to remove it!)
5. Once the last 2 screws are loose the assembly comes mostly out (enough to get at the bulb cages), without disconnecting any wires. The rest is pretty easy and obvious - you pull out the wire that goes into the bulb after opening the cage door, and there are sprung clips that you squeeze to unhinge, then the bulb comes right out. I used H7 55W which is what the auto parts store found in the book for my model and year.
6. Everything goes back in reverse, with strategic nudging. I had to retape the Allen key to the screwdriver to get resistance for tightening, but other than that it was straightforward. Now I hope the screwdriver I dropped into the engine compartment comes out next time I drive it... (Exactly why you do not want to do it this way... spend the 5$ and buy a T-27 Torx Screwdriver!).

Where is the engine coolant temperature sensor in a 1999 Audi A4 1.6L and how to replace it?
You should have gotten a letter from Audi about an extended warranty. The sensor is now covered for 10 years/100,000 miles for a falty sensor. This sensor (if malfunctioning) will cause the MIL to light up by "sensing" that the engine coolant is a couple degrees above what it should read. No Idea where it is but you shouldn't have to worry about replacing it yourself.
How do you lock the battery down on an Audi A4?
very simple to lock down Audi a4 battery, there is a screw and a base plate lock for the battery, if the battery is bigger or smaller there are 2 holes for you to choose for your screw to be bolted so the battery base plate will be secured. the battery holder is at the bottom part of the battery. To see the 2 holes remove the entire battery cover its so easy to remove the black plastic cover so you can see the 2 holes.

What mileage to change cam belt on Audi A4 1.8T?
Answer: Long enough before it breaks and destroys your engine, so you can sleep at night. Audi recommended "90K miles" .... but they backed off on that figure when belts started breaking @ 60K miles. For a good night's rest, check the belt for signs of wear or checking @ 40K miles. If it's still like new, then replace it @ 60K miles .... IMHO. This is one area where an once of prevention is worth a ton of money.
Audi recommends every 75,000 miles.
