This part cross-references Spectra Premium CU2828 for the same application.

Compatible With 2005-2012 Audi A6 Quattro and 2006-2011 Audi A6, this radiator matches the listed fitment for vehicles using the specified cross-flow configuration. The part number 2828C is also referenced in aftermarket interchange listings for this application, making it a practical replacement choice when servicing the cooling system on an Audi A6 or Audi A6 Quattro.

What It Helps Address

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify radiator dimensions, inlet and outlet size, and transmission cooler hose-clamp connections before installation. Flush the cooling system, inspect hoses and clamps, and confirm the transmission cooler lines are clean before reconnecting.
