URGENT cooling pipe query & ETKA no. - stuck in Switzerland

Recommended Posts

I am stuck in Switzerland because one cooling pipe has split and the coolant tube has broken. Can someone please tell me the ETKA numbers for:

a) the coolant tube (goes between the coolant pump and thermostat housing, has the drain plug and connection to the oil cooler)

b) the coolant pipe between the above coolant tube and the oil cooler

 

Also, in case the garage cannot get hold of a replacement coolant tube, does anyone know if it is possible to temporarily repair the it? The bit that sticks out to attach the coolant pipe from the oil cooler to has snapped off. My thought was to drill out the hole in the coolant tube to push the broken bit into using araldite or a similar epoxy resin to seal it back in. Anyone tried anything similar? Any advice would be much appreciated!!!

Thanks for all those part numbers Jim, with any luck the garage can get all the parts tomorrow and have me back on the road home.

 

Anyone got any opinions on my quick fix idea if luck is not on my side?
