Caveats and conflicts (2)

Third-party mirror of VAG catalog, not the OEM site. 01E is 6-speed; A4 B6/B7 front-drive 6-speed codes not checked.
Page does not name the W8 and its table heading says 5-speed; 6-speed 4Motion W8 box is 01E by number only.

Retailer. Parts catalog mirror: 01E300049 6-speed manual transmission fits Audi A4/S4 quattro USA 2001-2005 (8E VINs). [link]
Parts catalog. OEMwolf lists 01E300046 as a 6-speed manual for Passat 4Motion (1997-2002). [link]
