Couple of options
First Pick I believe 1 is a coupler.


Two how VW would repair the corrugated pipe. Rumour has it there is a smooth pipe too.


Ignore the pic that shows its a mk5, the information was for a mk6.

Only problem is rear roof spoiler has to be cut off with thread cutting wire to access the rear of the pipe that connects to the washer jet. I think fixing it like VW have suggested seems to be the best idea and least hassle.

I don't know if you pop out the rear spoiler light that there will be a hole to get at it without doing that. I expect that they invented the repair as the job of getting the spoiler off is bad.

One of you should stick this repair info in the maintenance section as I'm sure it'll come in handy for someone else in the future.  Hard to find buried in a random thread.
