jaded2882 0 Posted June 2, 2009 I'm gonna replace the flanges on the front and side of engine as they are p***ing all my expensive G12 away! Especially the one on the side. Would these 2 parts be OK from AVS, or do I need other seals and stuff to sit between them and the engine? Can't really see what's in there at the moment, looks like someones used liquid sealant/glue type stuff on them? http://www.vwspares.co.uk/product_info. ... cts_id=662 http://www.vwspares.co.uk/product_info. ... cts_id=658 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waynos 0 Posted June 2, 2009 you will probably find that the flanges are ok its the rubber o-rings that have perished. You may aswell change the flanges if they are cheap enough but make sure they come with o rings Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted June 2, 2009 Yeah replace them as they go brittle with age and warp. Pattern ones only last a year or two so I would buy genuine, will only be pennies more and the O rings are better too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
