inky 0 Posted July 2, 2007 91 G60 has been loosing water for a while - just got a lot worse and its from this pipe running from the side of the head... Does the plastic flange type pipe need replacing and/or does it need a new gasket?? - Also anyone got the name/part number(s)for it your help as ever would be appreciated...

Blue_Joe 0 Posted July 2, 2007 I'd replace the plastic flange and the o-ring inside it. They are only a few quid from GSF Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted July 2, 2007 I can't quite see if it is the super common place for it to go, but it looks like it is. Yep - get a new flange and gasket from VW, and obviously some fresh bottles of G12+ for the coolant change. Don't buy a pattern part.. it just doesn't last!

Jim 2 Posted July 2, 2007 Just ask for the coolant flange on the side of the block for a G60 engine'd Corrado.. they should be able to find it soon enough on ETKA! :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DanVW 0 Posted July 2, 2007 :D Thats the easy bit done then now you have to get the old one off an fit the new one which is a pain in the ass with all that boost pipework in the way, also one of the metal coolent hoses is held on by the bottom bolt too :( Its not too bad but not a 5 min job! best of luck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
