Air condition re gasing

Windows fog up because of the humidity in the car. Run the ac and this removes the humidity from the air and the windows will not fog. If you do not have air flowing from the vents then check that the selection control is moving the vent doors . Check that the vacuum line is connected and not broken.

You can buy them at ANY of the national auto parts chains.

This is the correct solution..........replace the solenoid valve N239 as the electrical connection is affected by dampness. What happens is that the EGR valve is jammed open by the solenoid and this allows oxygen starved air into the cylinders (exhaust gas) and combustion is poor.
Quick fix is to disconnect the vac hose to the EGR actuator and block the end with a self tapping screw or pencil. This will work for sure....

you might have a leak in the intake tube, try to start it with the mass air flow meter disconnected

yes you must remove the gas with a special machine ,and flywheel bolt is about 8 bolts normally .

check with a national chain store. these usually have an exhaust's small parts. for the physical location of them, have a peek in any repair manual. they should be illustrated.

Telephoned Audi Main Dealers around Manchester – Macclesfield very helpful, others either disconnected or not answering. Manual costs £21.85 (inc. VAT) + postage .... Too big to actually download and print, I suspect!
