Audi 5000 Air Filter

In 1982, the Audi 5000 entered the third-generation world of the Audi 100 series. Classic parts like the air filter contribute to the success of 5000. The air filter is crucial to protect the engine, as well as the performance as more modern cars, start to tighten on some builds. Serious issues may occur if the air filter parts are not in good condition, including allergy, reduction in airflow, reduced performance, misfire, greater oil consumption as well as completely messing up the vehicle.

Although 5000 has lots of great parts, air filter parts still need repair and maintenance after a long time of usage. On carbureted engines, the air filter is on top of the carburetor. On fuel-injected engines, the 5000 air filter is in an air filter housing. When servicing your air filter, you should pry open the housing (if equipped) and remove the old unit. Next, reposition the new air filter making sure the top is facing the top and the bottom is facing the engine. Then reconnect the pins on the air filter box or reattach the wingnut (carbureted engines). Finally, reconnect all hoses and connections going to housing. There are plenty of inexpensive and quality 5000 parts online. There are much more better and smarter 5000 parts and devices.
