I'm gonna have to go outside a bit and peer into the bonnets of both the Golf and the Rado as I don't think either of those has 3 pipes either.

Just looked and my MKII has the same pump as fitted to guys car and not the new one.

Had a look on the Rado and it looks like it only has two pipes but hard to see as the PAS stuff gets in the way. I suspect the extra tapped hole is for a car with PAS for the bracket to bolt to. I surmise therefore that the above pump could well be for a VAG 16v lump with PAS.

That's wierd, didn't realise the tapped hole went into the water ways from the pic.

I am about sunday but should be doing college work, why you ask?
