I hate the A4ld-robs power and fuel mileage. I have both an A4ld BII 4wd and a M50d BII 4.0 4wd. Did I say I hate the A4ld. Keep as much driver side wiring intact on your BII before you do any swapping. This includes the headlights and wiring behind the radiator where your power accessories run to the passenger side. You may need to swap it out but may not so leave until you know for sure. Keep it there till after the 4.0 is installed. All engine control wires do not matter-none of them really are the same. Label and take pics of both vehicles (everything there-from the connectors, wires, and all engine parts)-maybe not needed if your memory is good, but sure can come in handy. All it takes is one thing to cause a headache.
