4.2 TDI - front suspension overhaul
afternoon,
I'm at that stage in my car's lifetime that I need to replace front suspension on both side hence was wondering could you provide us with any guidance on where to source parts and which make to go for? in addition, could anyone share with us how to gain access to ETKA or any other similar parts catalogue to get the OEM part numbers? cheers. |

AS for parts I use TPS and play one of the other to get the best price.

Hi Del,
The link took me to a webpage. What do I do to download/use ETKA? Cheers Ray

You have to download the ZIP file. Within it there is a text file with the URL's where to download ETKA

OK , I'm starting to stagnate
managed to download the zip files, extracted them and landed up with a "ETKA" file on my C drive. Tried to follow the instructions,
Now SWMBO is demanding that I drop everything and take her shopping. We are in London this weekend, marching at the Cenotaph on Remembrance Sunday.

The hardlock emulator gets around the requirement for a dongle, which official users have as part of their licence. It only works on 32 bit OS so if you have a 64 bit PC that may be the reason for the error. The workaround to that is to install ETKA in a Virtual Machine (I use VMWare Workstation) with a 32 bit operating system installed. Anything beyond XP in a 32 bit flavour will do.
If your OS is 32 bit, try manually disabling the hardlock emulator and restarting it. Run: ETKA\PROG\hldrv32.exe Run: ETKA\PROG\emulator.exe Stop (bottom button) Reboot Run: ETKA\PROG\emulator.exe Start (top button)

Thanks Adrian,
You have just hit the nail right on the head. I'm using a 64 bit laptop, so I will have another go next week when we are back from London. If I was going to be on my own I would arrange a meet with you but SWMBO and two 14 year old granddaughters will be with me. Driving down on Friday hoping to be away by 11:00 and in the hotel well before tea time. Leave the car at the hotel and catch the tube into town for dinner and a wander. Saturday will be kicking and screaming being dragged round Oxford Street.
