The manuel says strike beavel washer to remove.... did that and even ended up...

what year did they start useing this PD engine, sounds sweet. It is 2 or 4 valves per cylinder, and does it use pilot injection?

While reading about the new A5 body style and such, i came across a article about the new 4 valve per cyclinder 2.0 TDI! Sounds SWEET, is it headed to the states?
