Quick question about ecu vacuum hose

[Supercharged Junkie 0]

Hi, replacing some vacuum hoses on my G60 and just want to make sure i get the right size.

I know the vacuum hose between the TB and ECU has to be 1m but what ID is it? 3 or 3.5mm

also looking at EKTA, it states the vacuum hose between the inlet manifold and FPR has to be 100mm, but doesn`t say what ID?

 

Thanks for any help

Yeah ETKA assumes you buy that part which I am fairly sure is 3.2mm ID like most other VW vac pipes - this one has a white tracer.

 

It's about £4 from any dealer and they should have a roll in stock, don't trust them to measure it tho!

 

Also don't use silicon as it can collapse.

Well, Went to replace the vacuum pipe from the inlet manifold to the fpr and found the cause of my sluggish performance i have been having recently

 

There was a great big split in the rubber pipe i had on there replaced it with some VAG vacuum pipe and Wow its back to normal :)

 

It must of been running well lean, feels so much more responsive now :clap:

 

it's 3.5mm id m8 not 3.2

 

Yeah, i thought that!
