Anything is possible but the pump in question is a higher pressure type which is not as common as those found in your FLAPS. I did find the P/N search yielded several alternatives which can actually pop into the cavity on the side of the large capacity washer tank. The only difference being the word of the day - connections.

The connector on the T3 are side-by-side connectors. The ones on the Audi version of the pump is in a 'T' or 'L' configuration. No big deal if you are making your own harness for it. 

Alistair is looking at the hi-press pump to solve his lack of flow issue. It might be overkill in that application IMHO, but we are talking Alistair here, afterall. Can't wait to see the upcoming titanium Excelsior toaster.:-)
