crish72 0 Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 Looking down on the engine,to the right the top water pipe from the radiator goes into a 'Tee' piece, which then has another pipe running upto the header tank... my tee peice has sprung a leak.Anyone know the part number please?ThanksChris Link to post Share on other sites
spindat45 0 Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 I had the same problem on mine but I'm not sure if you can get just that piece from VW. They sell the whole pipe with that 3 way peice as part of the pipe for a silly amount. I have one spare but it's from an auto so has an extra outlet that needs blocking off.

jabe 1 Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 Strictly dubs do a metal replacement . It's about £52 but still cheaper than 70 odd for the complete pipe . Cheers Link to post Share on other sites

crish72 0 Posted January 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 I'm gonna order from Gruven direct and get the missus to bring it back from the states when she goes in a few months Mine is currently wrapped in silicon sealant and PTFE tape, it seems to be holding at the moment...Chris Link to post Share on other sites

SankysVR6 1 Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 Does anyone know the diameter of the pipes, as i might have found a solution for us all. For a lot less. Link to post Share on other sites

crish72 0 Posted January 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 Oooooo...i'm liking that!What's that off? Link to post Share on other sites
SankysVR6 1 Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 I'ts just a T-piece i've found on the net, the small pipe that comes off it is the one that concerns me. As i can only find one with 16mm fitting think it needs to be smaller. Link to post Share on other sites
