Hi guys
I've developed a small leak from one of the two hoses that take fuel from the diesel filter to the engine. A main dealer Audi mechanic took a look and says I need to replace the pipe and that it's a simple job to do myself..... but unfortunately Audi want £66 for the pipe alone and TPS want £62. That seems an awful lot to me!? Apparently the pipes are only sold as a pair, so I have to buy both
It appears the leak is coming from the general area of the arrow, running down the pipe and then pooling on top of the diesel filter. It's not a massive amount but I want to get it fixed before it gets worse
I'm wondering if it's something I can get custom made to measure by a hose maker and how much I should expect to pay? or maybe I'm better off buying from a scrap dealer!?
Cheers
