04E103207A Audi FLANGE

A flange is basically a connection point. Think of it like how pipes connect – it’s a raised rim around a component, usually with holes drilled in it. Those holes allow you to bolt it to another part, creating a secure, leak – proof seal. It's often used where two parts of an exhaust system meet, or connecting things to the engine itself. It’s not really a moving part, more of a static connector. In your engine, a flange typically connects sections of the exhaust manifold, the turbocharger (if you have one), or even parts of the intake system. It physically joins those parts together, but more importantly, it creates a sealing surface for a gasket. That gasket fills in any imperfections, preventing exhaust gases or air from escaping. You'll find them throughout the engine bay really, anywhere pipes or manifolds join up. If a flange cracks or warps, that seal is broken. You’ll notice if you have an exhaust leak – it'll sound like a hissing or chugging noise, and you might even smell exhaust fumes inside the car. Also, it can affect engine performance because the engine isn't getting the proper flow it needs. A damaged flange can also cause other parts to fail prematurely due to the stress. They’re surprisingly important for keeping everything running smoothly and safely.
