VR6Pete 1,455 Posted October 2, 2004 Report Share Posted October 2, 2004 I dont suppose you have kept your old hoses and are willing to sell one?I'm on a 1997 VR6 and the hose from the radiator going into my thermostat housing which T's off to to the top of my header tank needs replacing. As you can see from my previous thread, the part I am after is not available from VW. So I'm either after the single molded hose, or the plastic bit if you have it. here's the thread:http://www.vr6oc.com/forum_viewtopic.php?10.22145Thanks,Pete Link to post Share on other sites

DundeeDub 0 Posted October 4, 2004 Report Share Posted October 4, 2004 i got mine a little cheaper as they were second hand with about 3000 miles on them,the best i found was £200 but i actually think this was before vat and postage, plus you need the clips to hold them on (about £25)can't remember where i found them the cheapest but i'll look again Link to post Share on other sites
