I don't know the answer to your question, but I'm curious why use the airpump at all. If you're looking to replace a faulty one it can simply be removed, it's used for emissions. Though if you remove it you should get a dual belt alternator pulley. I live in Eville also and there is no e-check here.

By the way, you didn't happen to be sitting at the light at Burkhardt and the Lloyd today at around dinner time, did you? Saw a red coupe heading east on the Lloyd today.

You might want to also mention that if you remove the air pump on an S5 (and do nothing else) the 6PI and VDI systems will stop working.

As far as the pumps being interchangeable, they're exactly the same on all FCs.
