- Audi S4 B9, 2017
Hi,
I have a 2017 S4 B9 Avant in the UK. At some point, possibly when the car was cleaned by an Audi garage, the matt grey front grille has been damaged / stained (likely an acid burn according to a detailer). I’ve been looking at sourcing a replacement grille from eBay or a breaker but have been unclear about part numbers. I was advised by one vendor that I need part number 8W0853651J RP5 - this seems to be incredibly rare whenever I search for it. There seem to be plenty of grilles available described as 8W0853651H - these look absolutely identical (including two no. openings for parking sensors) to the current grille on my car. That said, I have however not removed the grille to check mounting details behind, etc.
Wondering if anyone has had any experience with replacing these grilles or knows the details behind the H or J RP5 part number suffixes?
Per above, I’m located in the UK (in case this affects part number).
Thanks
