heater matrix hoses part numbers?

[Zeal 0]

hi, does anyone know the part numbers/names for the water hoses that attach to the heater matrix on a 1.8 16v.

 

would be very grateful, been two winters without heat! :oops:

 

if i get on it now i might sort it by autumn

same as a 2.0 16v and only available from VAG i think so your dealer should be able to order the right parts for you with your Reg plate/engine number

 

they're probably quite steep, so I'd consider samco type hoses made up from a reducer bend from head and some straight lengths

 

VAG parts are:

191 819 373H return (same as 1990=1992 16v golf)

191 819 371H feed (same as all 16v golfs)

 

this thread covers making up the hoses from the supplier called sfs (Google UK them)

just re-read that post and it says the head to matrix hose is not available from VAG any more so you may have to make one up.
