Delivery and Shipping
UK delivery — parts we hold in stock
Ordered before 2pm on a working day, these are dispatched the same day by express courier and normally arrive within 1–2 working days.
Parts supplied from our European supplier
A large part of our range is held by our supplier in Germany rather than on our own shelves. We order these in for you as soon as you place the order. They normally dispatch within 7–10 working days, and are then sent on by express courier like anything else. Nothing ships to you direct from Germany — it comes to our Arlesey workshop first, so you deal only with us for returns and warranty.
Collection from Arlesey
Click and collect is available on parts we physically hold. If an item has to come in from our supplier it cannot be collected, and checkout will tell you so before you pay.

3–5 working days once dispatched. Any customs charges or excise duties are the responsibility of the buyer.

What is the DL501 / 0B5 gearbox?
The DL501 (also coded 0B5) is Audi’s longitudinally-mounted 7-speed S-Tronic dual-clutch automatic transmission, designed for quattro all-wheel-drive vehicles. It uses two wet clutch packs — K1 and K2 — each containing steel plates and friction plates.
What is the difference between K1 and K2?
K1 is the larger clutch pack (217mm) handling the odd gears (1, 3, 5, 7 and reverse); K2 is the smaller pack (157mm) handling the even gears (2, 4, 6). Always confirm your pack and diameter before ordering.
Do I need to replace all the plates or just the worn ones?
Best practice is to replace the full set of steel and friction plates together when rebuilding the clutch pack, but individual plates are also available if only one plate is damaged.
How do I know which thickness of plate I need?
Individual plate thickness affects the correct clutch pack clearance. Measure the existing worn plates or use the OEM specification. We stock 1.95mm, 2.0mm and 2.5mm variants for K1.
Does this plate fit all DL501 / 0B5 units?
This plate fits the K1 217mm pack of the DL501 / 0B5 gearbox. The clutch pack design is consistent across DL501 production, but always confirm the plate count and thickness specification for your specific unit.
