Hello Decker!..


I too have a Audi S4…………..I just changed all the plugs and wires. There's only one way to get to 'em. you may need to remove the cover below your radio (doghouse cover). On the driver's side you just have to bust your knuckles and change sockets a lot. On the passanger side, you should probably reach through the wheel well. I found it easiest to do it that way. It helps to have 2 people. One can help guide the sockets onto the plugs, cause they're impossible to see :blink: from the wheel well. Good luck!
