Darryl Hill Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 You may find on the pipe the part number, it may help you with getting a replacement pipe, I see it seems to run from the Turbo on the induction side, so more than likely an induction pipe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnet Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Daft question perhaps Ian, but any objection to getting a new one from Audi - except cost!? Kind regards, Gareth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnet Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Strange, but as far back as a couple of decades ago, factors seem to have stopped supplying coolant hoses. This situation may well still apply?? Try Audi Parts Direct at Cardiff for some possible discount. They do mail order. Part of Mon Motors, which were Cardiff Audi.

Solution enc Posted February 11 Author Solution Share Posted February 11 The crankcase to Turbo breather hose appeared to be deteriorating... on removal, what i thought was the rubber hose turning spongy, was just an outer sheath.

What is more puzzling, the nozzle is blanked off on the inside original in place (turbo end) Replacement ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
