Hi Guys,
A3 2.0TFSI Revo Stage 3 - Wonder if anyone can help. I upgraded my K03 (Stock) to a K04 and all the oil and coolant lines fitted perfectly. That was until the engine blew up...... New (Strengthened Engine) fitted and another Turbo. However, while the coolant feed and oil feed and return lines fit, the coolant return pipe doesnt (larger turbine means that the steel pipe wont route around / over the turbine).
Has anyone any ideas as to how to make up a flexible hose with a Banjo end for the turbo, and a rubber hose for the attachment to the coolant line on the side of the engine? This is the last thing that is preventing me from getting the car back on the road and I just can't believe its such a stupid part. TPS sourced pipework wont fit (again, due to the larger turbine) and I'm stuck.
Im sure I've seen some fittings somewhere that will allow me to make up a hose, but ******** if I can find them again.
Any suggestions welcome
Many thanks,
Graham
