Subject:Re: hall sender in the audi 4000 same as vanagon 83-85 237-011-050 ??

1237 011 050 & 1237 011 080 (don't forget the "1" before the rest of the
number or you get something else!) are the same Hall unit, but the 080 does
not come with the rotor (also called the reluctor). The rotor/reluctor
provided in the 050 is for 4 cylinder models. In many cases the
rotor/reluctor does not usually need replacing (all it does is spin), so
Bosch is "quietly" superseding the 050 to the 080 as to not continue
providing extra parts to cover 4 & 5 cylinder models.
 I would call or email to verify the price on this hall unit (note that the
"Discount Price" says "$104.95 * - price as of 12/30/2004. Actual prices may
vary"). This price shown is over a year old and close to current cost to a
shop from a Bosch WD. Cost on this item has changed (always up <frown>) at
least twice this year (2005).
 YMMV
