In the middle of replacing the vc gaskets on my 2010 S4 DSG.
Already have the covers off from both sides. I was planning to paint the covers, but am not sure how to remove the vc bolts. I know they can be removed since the manual calls for inspection and replacement if the seals are bad.
I did the same job on my previous B7 S4 4.2L (the painted covers looked amazing on it btw), vc bolts just popped right out. The B8 ones look to almost be riveted though[confused]
Anyone know for sure how to remove them???? [az]
I'd like to get them painted today and dry overnight for re-install tomorrow. Really don't want to pass the chance to paint them while they are off.
