Can anyone tell me with confidence whether there was a change made in the rf tie rod made during its production? And if you can, can you tell me what the change was? Reason I am asking is that I am going to need one for the turbo project so I need to know what tie rod to get to fit the 4kq struts.

Anyone do the pn thing? >> Why yes, actually I found these last week at The Parts Connection (formerly IPC). You are correct on the style change also, the cut-off is somewhere around 6/83. this would make sense that the production for the '84 4000s' was in progress. The serial # for the newer style is 85-D-900582 and up for the 83 model year. I understand the same serial # applies when the rear control arms and other associated parts are needed. The part cost less than half of dealer list but was not Original Audi, however it was made in Germany and looked to be very high quality. It's in the car and my self adjusting rear geometry has been stopped. Happy Motoring, Sean.
