VR6Pete 1,455 Posted July 22, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2004 I went to VW, they dont know there arse from their elbow, they tried to tell me it was a non VW part until i showed them the VW logo on the part, the part number doesnt show up and VW can only tell me "what they see" on the ETKA CD. the complete hose is £62 inc VAT. told em bollox to it!Justin, If you can get one, mint! that would be a great help. I hardly think it's been botched, so dont worry guys. Link to post Share on other sites
