I need an explanation on how to remove the front bumper off the Audi a4 b5 in steps, and are there any tools (not including regular tools) that I may need?
Thanks.|||Got this from an Audiworld DIY article, Ive used one from that site for my b5 s4 and its basically the same thing really... when you actually get to taking off the bumper its kind of a *****... haha, you gotta pull hard bot be careful not to break **** and look for those clips in step 5
"1. Remove the plastic underpan; 6 screws underneath and 2 plastic screws in each wheel well.
2. Remove two small grills and fog lights (if applicable) on front bumper; the grills come out just by pulling.
3. Disconnect the hose to the headlight washers by reaching through the hole where you removed the driver's side grill; it disconnects at the lightened area of the picture below. If you can't reach it, see step 6. Washer Fluid will SPLASH out, so catch it in a bucket in case you want to reuse that
4. Remove the two long 6mm hex bolts (see above picture).
5. Now grab the side of the bumper, almost to the wheel well and pull BACK (towards the rear of the car) and DOWN then UP. It takes a little finesse, but it's really not that hard. Have someone else hold the bumper while you do this so it doesn't come crashing down and scratch the paint. See the picture below, notice how the two clips at the top and one at the bottom grab the bumper like a claw. So if you pull it down, and then up (or vise versa), then you should be able to work it loose. "|||as far as special tools the only one you might need is torx drivers
to remove it you will need to take the 2 lower grills (fog lights covers) behind those there is either 2 allen bolts or hex bolts (one in each side) pointing up.
there is 4 t20(i believe) screws on each wheel well holding the well lining to the bumper cover
also there should be about 6 t25 (or plastic clips) holding the grill
also when you take the skid plate off check for 3 screws on the bottom of the bumper holding it to the core support, (some of them dont have them)
other than the hose for the washer the position lights and fog light connectors and you should be able to pull it out!|||have someone that has a clue, work on it
