Trying to find coolant pipe!
« on: 05 February 2017, 14:42 »
Afternoon,

i have a puncture in the pipe attached and cant for the life of me track down a replacement, does anyone know where to find one? it is possibly a mk3 coolant pipe as the engine in the car is a 2.0 from a mk3. pictures of the pipe in the engine bay can be posted if needed.

any help is appreciated, cheers!

any old rubber pipe will do for that. you might want to leave it longer though if it is not pre-formed like the one in pic. 8mm/10mm fuel hose would be fine :wink:

Dude, never mind the pipe, think you need to take it easy with the laffe toffee 😜, but seriously, is that the pipe from the expansion tank to top radiator?... Have you not just tried good olde eBay to see if anyone is breaking a mk2/3?
