Buy this and buy the other bits of hose from the car factors. https://www.heritagepartscentre.com/uk/021103493a-ventilation-hose-for-vr6-engine.html?gclid=CjwKCAjw7--KBhAMEiwAxfpkWDhHXMCRlSw1uaXEPr4wA39Y4XaTO84qfG8SS6CqY_SPy4C81oLk0xoCGjwQAvD_BwE

Sure I would use both but I avoid the sachs one though unless your willing to by a new pipe off Hel Performance- pretty sure someone had an issue with one- of course I imagine Heritage have a Topran one for the price of a quality one so I would avoid them to ha,.

Here are some clear pictures are you sure your not getting your ATe mixed up with the FTE mate 😉 https://produto.mercadolivre.com.br/MLB-790221067-cilindro-auxiliar-embreagem-passat-golf-orig-vw-357721261a-_JM

The ATE and FTE do look the same unit and manufacture looking at the pictures of them.

Are you sure mate as i have some original ones here and they say FTE. Can see VAG still sell them and say FTE on the opp side it has vag number. https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-volkswagen-audi-parts/slave-cylinder/357721261a/

So Valeo now owns FTE . So this looks like the OE one - can see FTE on it. VALEO 874757 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/194284767650?epid=3039428822&hash=item2d3c4649a2:g:-Q8AAOSwvmphBjZZ Not sure why there are 2 options on the autodoc site for the same part number ??? https://www.autodoc.co.uk/spares-search?keyword=357721261A&supplier[0]=21

Yes this looks like oem from factory FTE. https://www.autohausaz.com/pn/357721261A

The brands to go for are ATE or TRW , I cant remember the oe brand but from memory its not ATE surprisingly. For manual looks like there is no variation in all variants and age rhd/lhd - Part number 357721261A I cant remember but think the OE might be FTE Im pretty sure someone purchased a Sachs one and the thread was the incorrect size. Now the Master cylinder is a different story.

Bar the poverty spec interior this looks a great honest low mileage VR . I would dread to think how cheap the dealer got it for - the alarm bells read description key words- old lady owned over three decades - sold to us when passed away . Has the magic in the centre console Cubby. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/284468922426?hash=item423bab483a:g:1XEAAOSwKAFhU2fr -
Guarantee it’s the slave

This is my next one. Has an option 8 gear zf auto - tempting. They have some seroius power plants up to 180 bhp- 400 torque plus. Under seat storage impressed with that. Under a truck network with 24 hour service / maintenance.

My hire flatbed was a 2019 Merc . My observations four fault codes were coming up on the screen The cab roof is unnecessarily high as you can not get it under single story passages into court yards like a transit. Far too much fragile tech in the cabin for trades - I mean I just want the basics these things just get damaged- I dont want a touch screen a stereo will last 20 years a touch screen (5 - 10 years ? ) My biggest pet hate- indicators on wing mirrors- money catch can. Also price- the Merc flat bed drop side is base price 40 k plus vat - the Iveco 27 k plus vat which is every bit as good as a van and has a better payload and the double axle . I m popping in there for a chat today and do some research. The real industrial Merc van is the Mitsubishi as its built by Daimler but the payload is not great as designed for 5 ton capacity allowed on a car licence in other countries (I wish we had this band in the UK makes so much sense without obtaining an operators licence

Im hoping this block lasts now as I will be the first owner of the engine but on the look out for another wagon to join that will replace my old Mk6 I let go of- I will not be risking the Mk8 euro 6 - I hope the Iveco is not a wet belt engine. My Mk7 did have a full service history from the file unless it has been clocked before each mot as first owner was a three year lease then I was the second owner ( im thinking could well be the case) . Does have 7 stamps in the service book - may be the engine is not up to the task of pulling scaffolding - the mk6 2.4 was slow but damn reliable and the shell would go before the engine.

It was on facebook in Eniskillen - was a proper 16 V BBs kit as it had the the corner hole vents on the front splitter spoiler. The only crime was someone had cut cut a hole on the rear bumper spoiler for what must of been a towing arm !

Ive done a lot of research and im moving away from Ford after 20 years. A close contender was the Misubushi fuso canter but the problem with them and Isuzu they are 5 ton chassis so you cant get much weight on them )payload) and the flatbeds are to small . The No 1 choice that ticks all the boxes is the payload reliability rear double axle ( carriers weight well ) Purchase cost Build quality Iveco Daily 35C14 (4.0M Alloy Dropside) 2.3ltr 140ps Manual Euro 6 Has a proper coach built rear bed - really stands out as the winner- yes these were crap 15 years back but have climbed to the No1 spot.

Hi Geri hope all is well. I nearly contacted you the other day about a Mk2 BBS 16v body kit in your area- but then engine Armageddon got me eating chicken wings for Xmas dinner this year. Mine is a Mk7 .2 with 2.2 turbo - they are hit and miss . The best one was the 2.4 in the Mk 6 and Mk7.1. The latest Mk8 .2 eco blue 2.0 will fail no iff or butts- the engine makes the oil degrade after only 2 k miles and destroys the belt- its a rubber belt not a chain like previous models. My mates spent 18 k buying one and it grenaded just out of warrantee at 64 k miles and Ford turned their back on him - cost him 8 k = also the gear boxes are failing. Couple of vidoes about the Mk8/ Ford say 120 k for the timing belt change.

If you look through the thread you will see pictures of Kurzy loom and you will see the one you have posted is substandard.

Thanks Dox Strange enough I know the ford Ranger my friend had just over the 3 years and the head cracked- these eco boost engines are absolutely chocolate / gash. Im really thinking Japanese now - the Isuzu but the problem is these are built to take 5 ton so therefore the gross weight is less and you can get less weight on as 3.5 ton max without operators licence or 7.5 ton driver which is a rare thing now in scaffolding let alone a scaffolder and all the crap vosa paper work that comes with it. They should let 3.5 up to 5 ton in the UK I mean its the same size vehicle and it would be better for the vehicle's to have stronger chassis. The merc van the cab is just far to high and you cant get under the small tunnels access to courtyards under these new shit pot toy town flats been built - also the tubes slide off as angle so high and will cause damage- is Iveco the way to go but I always thought these were Ford -I wondering if they use the same engine blocks hmmm. VW- Citroen- Peugeot have never really been beefed up enough for my trade and only single axle which show the weight badly .

Wondered if there are any diesel experts on here. I have owned ford transits for 20 years and the Mk6 was a cracker- I use the rear wheel drive flat bed lwb versions. So my latest one MK7 with 76 k and full service (i look after my vehicles) engine has gone expected fuel pump failure or timing chain - its a 2012 2.2 turbo engine euro 5. Looking at a 5 k for a new block and labour- feel sick as have been renting now a Merc pick up for 2 weeks and the garage still has not fitted it- its cost me 1400 so far and not spent a penny on the repair yet. Knowing a lot of traders been in construction that own these vans - Mk 8 the euro 6 engine blue tech are lasting 60k miles - the rubber timing belts are snapping and apparently the oil is no good after 2 k miles as the engine is degrading the oil in the block. Its eating its own shit. Heard of at least 6 blowing up and even talking to mechanics saying do not touch. I always have the double rear axle ( 4 tyres. ) I feel Ford are now a bad investment and they are all made in Turkey - the merc , vw citreon etc do not come with the rear double axle = does anyone know if any other brands are making a reliable vehicle ? I have allays purchased my vans with low mileage an three years old- could it be there is a clocking epidemic going on as most vans are leased and they don't want to pay the additional mileage and get it clocked pre mot - so you are in real life buying a high miler. Just feel like all new diesel are engines are junk and all turbo for vans and the older larger natrural displacement engines where more reliable. .

Bringing this back alive for the recent poster. Pictures show the most recent kurzy looms.

Looks a good car can see the front member has been taken care of to.

Yes here is the diagram. There should be a duct in front of the intercooler that screws onto the bumper iron 535145937A . You will need to buy a used intercooler as obsolete. https://www.ilcats.ru/vw/?function=getParts&market=RDW&model=COR&modelcode=76&year=1995&group=1&subgroup=145&part=49000&language=en

This is a late genuine fan switch from a good seller - check your pin lay out is that same as in a triangle as early has a horizontal 3 pin lay out. On diagram there is no sealing washer. https://www.deutsche-parts.co.uk/1h0959481b-switch-new-genuine-part.html
