b16drb Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 Hi A8 / S8 lovers I'm 99% sure my pump has gone (ohh-eer, no inuendo's please !). Having spent an hour stuck in the boot I have got the part number. I am told I have to "match" the part because they are specific to the "options" on the car. The part number is 8LO-862-257-P. The problem is that "new" they are circa £250 plus the dreaded-VAT ! Can anyone help "source" a second-hand one (for a lot less ££££££) ? Hope you can help me Daz67 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 If you don't fancy buying new, then maybe phone around some breakers.. numbers in the back of Auto trader or Yellow pages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shark_90 Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 There's a breaker called All Audi (I think) near Swindon or Bristol.. try them. Also try Parts Gateway - I have got a couple of things I've needed from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IT_S8 Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 Yup, sorry for the absence. We're still here, plodding away, but I've been a bit more hands on the past fortnight dismantling, so the keyboard has been resting a little. Still watching what you're all up to though...

b16drb Posted March 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 Sorry for not logging-on for quite a while; thanks to everyone for advice. To cut a very,very, very long story short......I tried the second-hnd CLP route.....and could not get it to work....maybe faulty part ??? Ended up going to Bath Audi (main dealer) and had to look big and pay up..........and buy a brand new CLP...ouch.. cost me £400 ++ If I had longer arms and I could reach all the doors from driver's seat I would have not bothered and gone back in time and (yep you've guessed) had to use a key every time.....can you imaging going back there ?????
