be carefull replacing the pipe as the others normally split when you move them :sad:
-
hose is sorted now lol took a few hours tho was in a rite a-hole position
-
which pipe was it that had split i have 1 split on mine got to get the correct pipe as i got the wrong 1 what running issues was the pipe making
-
it was the pipe that come of the breather that splits into 2 the bottom was broke , didnt really give me any probs with running that i knew of
-
was that the pipe that goes to the front of the engine somewhere under the inlet manifold area
-
yeah it clips into another pipe under there
-
did you get your pipe from vw as that where i bought the other pipe from thats wrong the pipe that is 2 ends is 30 75 from vw so if it was only 16 pound it is cheaper happy days
-
gimme few mins ill upload a pic of the broken pipe
-
there is the hose , the part they gave me for 16 quid was wrong so i got some hose from me local car parts and a conector and few clips and made one my self as it is only a brether pipe. cost me about £4 took me vw hose back for me refund.

Yeah that is the same pipe as mine that as broke how does the pipe hold in as mine as had a proper bodge job done by the previous owner with copper pipe rammed in but it as split further down now anyway i want to get it sorted like my cars to be 110%
-
iam on the save for complete forge hoses for mine as i have had a look about and there are few other hoses that dont look at there best. thats before any other mods for me
-
These hoses have a copper insert, this is to stop the pipe being crushed when you use a clamp.
Mine split when i replaced the Y piece coming out of the rocker cover. When trying to remove the one in ht epicture i also managed to brake another. Word of warning, "BE CAREFUL" :grin:
