    Audi in Drogheda have quoted me €190 for a high pressure turbo pipe that ruptured on me yesterday. I'm sick of their high prices and would like to know if this part can be sourced for less somewhere else? The car is a 2005 A4.

    Many thanks.

    Try a motor factors. They can often be a lot cheaper.

    See if Kierans on the North Road and see if they have the same part in a Skoda box - will probably be cheaper than the Audi part by quite a bit.

    Same engine, so presume the same pipe. SEAT would have the same part too for less than VW /AUDI.

    they should be included but ask when youre ordering as these clips can be troublesome so make sure theyre replaced. also try
    bs parts- duleek
    collon car dismantlers
    ardee car parts
    david cassidey car parts-grangebellew
    should pick up something for 20-30 euro
