Title: Fuel Leak, Need help to identify a part
Post by: Rubix78 on 21 February 2012, 11:55

Hello, first off I am new to this forum so Hi!

Recently I have had a fuel leak on my car leaking Deisel everywhere.  I have taken it to a mate who located the issue and managed to make a temperary fix.  He doesn't know what the part is but thinks its some sort of Coolent.

The part is on the underneath of the car at the middle and has two pipes, one fuel in and fuel out.

My Car is a Golf GT TDI 130 (02)

Just found out it is a Fuel Coolent.  They said this can only been bought at VW is that true?

I suspect that is the case unless a specialist can repair it.

Ouch, in that case maybe take a chance with a s/h unit or see if a specialist can repair it.
