looking at it, yes but I am not too clued up on the 2.0 engine, it would make sense at its a breather

I would also take off your Thottle body and clean it out with carb cleaner that fixed a number of problems with my golf.

i'd connect that back really, asked my mate who has the 2ltr and he laughed and asked how slow your going, advice would be to get a silicone pipe to replace it  :wink:
