winner will call up now and see if they got any in. Am guesing it should be replaced pretty soon as performance is lost/power?

and that is for me engine? well was 130bhp but now chipped. Wicked not bad price. So if I get a new one then it wont keep coming loose? as the pipe doesnt look damanged at all? Just wont stay in flippin place! rude! hehehe, does it come in any other colour apart from black as I wanna change my pipe colours anyays

only colour is black unless you replace it with an SFS Performance hose but they are over £100....



Get some new clips and o-rings whilst ordering the pipe  :smiley:


does look good tho  :wink: :cool:

if your fitting the oem part then i would replace it with a genuine vag part tbh may be a tad more expensive but you pays for what you get another alternative is to give trade parts specialists a call genuine vag parts but trade prices  :wink: will probs be £5 cheaper than vw and can get the part quicker :afro:

VW or Trade Part Specialists only

Its ok but the fitment isn't 100% as I noticed it rubs on the alternator  :sad: So i've had to cable tie it  :lipsrsealed:

is it easy to replace it? just lookin at it now and cannot figure out how to get the pipe off at the bottom ie pointing towards the lights etc the other part has already come off so thats simple

it uses the same clip as near the top but its much easier to remove the front bumper
