Mawrick 0 Posted February 2, 2017 While removing the dryer (to replace it) the line that goes on front of the radiator (aluminium pipe) snapped off at the fitting, anyone know if it's possible to get replacement for these, or any tips on what to use to replace it or "repair" it?. It's the one that goes under the dryer and then turns back 180 degreee and into the dryer,,....(it doesn't seem to show any good in illustration in VW parts software so unsure if it got it's own part-number) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cressa 44 Posted February 2, 2017 I wouldn't have thought it had a VW part no. As I thought they were a Diavia aftermarket fit at the dealers. It may be possible to get a hose made up. I'll have a look as I have a couple of aircon spares for mine Cressa Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cressa 44 Posted February 2, 2017 That looks like a genuine part set up. Is yours lhd or imported? Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

delfinis38 1 Posted February 3, 2017 Did you ever get a figure for the fill of the airco unit. Not done mine yet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cressa 44 Posted February 3, 2017 He said he put about 600gms in. Definitely more than I had in the last time and worked fine Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Philly-R6 0 Posted February 6, 2017 Mawrick, I think I have the pipe you are after (see attached images) - the threads are pretty good, too! It came off a LHD Corrado A/C condenser (I don't need it as all my A/C pipes are on the gearbox side). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skid 1 Posted February 12, 2017 I had a problem sourcing new pipes for mine when a company had damaged the threads. After a long search I managed to get a mobile AC guy that does lorry's,tractors, diggers etc to come and make a hose, charge the system etc. I am up in Aberdeen, and the guy travelled 45 miles to help me out.

Mawrick 0 Posted February 12, 2017 A bit late - but here is the sticker that shows info about the AC: (One might have to download it and zoom in to see the values...:) ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cressa 44 Posted February 12, 2017 Thanks mate. Is yours a diavia system or a genuine vw. I ask as you have a genuine vw pipe etc. Is your car a left or rhd model? Curious!! Cressa Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
