Quick facts
- Part: Standard Ignition GB-455 distributor cap
- Fits: the 1990-1991 Audi V8 Quattro V8 3.6L and the 1992-1994 V8 Quattro V8 4.2L
- Condition: New
A worn cap can show up as misfires, hard starting or a rough idle, and with the engine off you may see cracks, carbon tracks or corroded terminals inside it. Those signs alone do not prove the cap is the problem, since a tired spark plug wire is another common source.
Fits
It fits the 1990-1991 Audi V8 Quattro V8 3.6L and the 1992-1994 V8 Quattro V8 4.2L, and both engines take one cap.
