I own an Audi A4. It turns out I have to remove the front bummer. Yes front bummer to flush the radiator.

But even before you do, realize that Audi coolants are long life coolants. They are suppose to last 100K miles. And they they are NOT compatible with regular coolant. You need Audi G12 or G13 coolant. $25 per gallon (you just need one gallon)

Make sure you flush the old coolant complete. Otherwise you could old and new coolant reacting and neutralizing each other (especially if G12 or G13 react with non-Audi coolant).

Good Luck

P.S. Make sure you have your heater blowing at full speed to flush out the heater core too.

It's the front Bumper that needs to be pulled forward about 8" to service the timing belt and the thermostat. A"bummer" is owning a car with such a stupid design. Have a mechanic that works on Audi's do the work or you will end up overheating the car because of air pockets or having the timing belt installed wrong. The brains that designed this motor forgot to put timing marks on the cam shafts and there is a special tool you need to align them. Running the heater fan while bleeding the cooling system is not recommended. It just makes it take longer for the motor to come up to operating temperature and open the thermostat. Do set the hot/cold setting to hot to make sure you bleed the air from the heater core too.
