replaced the all the vacuum lines that i could see on the passengers side of the car and then moved on to the drivers side, i see a brown(ish) one and a blue(ish) one that need to be replaced but the only way i can see to get at the connections on the bottom is to remove the air filter connection on the top of the engine (i see that there are two bolts, i removed them, but it was still in there pretty good, so are there allot of other connections at the bottom of it that are gonna make it a PIA to remove it or is there a better way to get too these lines? and i found another vacuum line, a black one that connects to something on the fire wall and then splits off to two more black ones and i looked and saw that the one that connects on the bottom to something wasnt connected at all, and i couldnt get to it to replace it or just reconnect it until i could replace it

I did start the engine and it honestly seems to run ALLOT better, but is it going to hurt me to drive a day or too with this line disconnected? considering it quit possibly has been disconnected for a while and ive been driving the car like that and it seems to be fine

soo could someone tell me how to get to these lines to replace them OH and i noticed that im getting low on antifreeze, so what kind of Anti-freeze does my car take, anything special? because i have some in the garage from another car, but i didnt want to add it if its the wrong stuff

sorry about all the questions, just trying to get my car in good running shape before we get hit with snow down here

thanks allot

'96 a6 quattro, Greenish-blue

so where can i pick up some more of this OE-G11 stuff so that i can fill it?

...no other places around here have it at least. You can also order it through some of the standard online Audi parts sources...

Most European places will have it. Made by Pentosin.

what about the vacuum lines?

how can i get to them so that i can switch them out, is there something easy to remove so that i can get to them, the only thing i could see is the Air filter that bolts to the top of the engine, but i need some directions on how to do so if thats the case
