boost monkey 0 Posted September 4, 2011 These are cheap as chips mate. Deffo go for a new one. Most factors will do them, same as the old Mk2 models, 8 and 16v. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cdem 0 Posted September 5, 2011 That one posted with the ebay link is for a carb engine and the one for the gti is only for the 8v. Not sure if they are the same or not? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidwort 0 Posted September 6, 2011 I'm a bit dubious about mk2 ones fitting as none had the 02A gearbox (except mk2 G60) and the pipe should attach to the front engine mount bracket which is 02A specific. The pipe connections vary too, with some engines having an extra 'take off' pipe 'T' from the main pipe (2 rather than 1). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cdem 0 Posted September 6, 2011 Anybody know the vw part number for the pipe?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carrots 1 Posted September 14, 2011 how hard are these pipes to fit Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidwort 0 Posted September 14, 2011 Pretty easy, hose clips can be a fiddle especially the hose to the end of the pipe in front of the block as access is a bit tight, cable clips can snap as they go brittle Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carrots 1 Posted September 15, 2011 not to bad then,ive had the hoses off before when i changed um to samco Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidwort 0 Posted September 15, 2011 Anybody know the vw part number for the pipe?? 2 different ones depending on chassis no. 027121065P up to chassis 50-N-007500 (same as mk2 16v golf) 051121065C 50-N-007501 on (this is the same as the 9A 2L 16v engine in corrado and passat) I think the difference is the position of the take off pipe to the header tank and it may be that either would actually do.

Purple Tom 0 Posted September 16, 2011 If its the later one that anyone needs then I have one as its also the same on the 2.0 8V. Its in as new condition as I bought it to replace a rusty one and only did a few thousand miles with it. If I recall it cost roughly £70 from TPS! Obviously no longer needed, the TDi pipe is slightly different but I'm loathed to chuck it away as its bound to be useful to someone else :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
