gtiller Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Hi all, I posted this over on the A6 list, but it gets a bit lonely over there!!!!! Does anyone have access to ElsaWin? In particular, I am after instructions on removing the rear bumper of an A6 Avant (type C6) Your help would be much appreciated! Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponge Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 I'll have a look, but I'm not sure how long it'll take me. I don't use it that often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
