binliner 0 Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 Behind the passenger side wheel arch liner there is a plastic reservoir with a vacuum pipe like tha plugged into it... it's probably come from there (body shop probably forgot to reconnect it) Link to post Share on other sites

J5KE F 0 Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 I think that'd be the vaccum line for the ecu! had a major prob with mine due to that fiddly little bugger! Link to post Share on other sites

alanf 0 Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 try and see if the recirc switch works on the heater panel? listen and see if the flap moves or the air flow speeds up? IIRC on some VW's the flap is operated by a vacuum servo? it could be the supply for that as suggested ?! Link to post Share on other sites
