davidwort 0 Posted February 23, 2004 trying to fit an audi 6a block to my car in place of the old KR, can anyone check their 2.0 16v to see if the oil filter hangs straight down rather than at an angle towards the gearbox, also that the mounting bracket has a fixing/bolt hole at the top left that appears to take the corner out of the breather unit, as opposed to the breather having 4 equally spaced bolts itself. VW changed the filter braket to incorporate a by pass valve on the later 2.0's and the bracket had to be made slightly longer. I'm after a 9A oil filter bracket (I think) and then the audi block should go in. cheers, David. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

davidwort 0 Posted February 23, 2004 Do these help? that's great cheers :notworthy: , I can't quite see the top of the housing where it bolts to the block, but if you have the black plastic breather unit (which it looks like you do) rather than the cast alloy one then that gives me the info I need. I'm now just on the lookout for a passat/2L C or mk 3 oil filter housing now as my 1800 KR engine one doesn't fit, VW want 85 quid for the bracket :shocked!: - I think NOT!!! thanks again Phil, David.
