I’ll order anyway and cross that bridge when I come to it.
Solution enc Posted February 11 Author Solution Posted February 11 The crankcase to Turbo breather hose appeared to be deteriorating... on removal, what i thought was the rubber hose turning spongy, was just an outer sheath. Was tricky tracking a replacement ... Surprisingly, the replacement was reasonably priced from Audi ... Strange... the new hose does not have a nozzle on the turbo connector end Where the original has ...
