A8_Tony Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 If the part number's the same then you should be quite safe in your purchase Don't quote me though Welcome to TSN by the way, don't forget to check out the annual meet, and owners club threads :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsYcHe Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 I think there's another code number on the box too. Not sure if it matters from a control point of view, but I remember a tmy last box service, the guys had to check the exact model number fo the box to get the correct filters, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJP Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 5HP19 is just the very generic 5 speed zf designation, as fitted to BMWs, audis, porsches etc since 1995. These can all be quite different. You need the 3 letter Audi code. I attach a list (not necessarily complete) of some of the 5HP19 gearboxes used in the 4WD A8. Your 4WD S6 box will probably have a different code. At that point I run out of expertise, but certainly some characteristics are not interchangeable - for example, if your 3.7 was front wheel drive the box would be mechanically completely different, although still a 5HP19. 5hp19 application chart.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
