Hi,
I spent most of the day doing a few things to the S3.
Firstly i changed the cam cover breather hose as the old one was falling to pieces, i also changed the down pipe from the hockey puck valve into the air intake, again very weak.
This all went fine, only i discovered that the plastic tube connecting to the cam cover breather hose was a bit broken. I tidied it up and went to Audi for a replacement.
Only problem is they couldnt find the part number
The following picture shows the bit i mean:
Could some one please tell me the part number or alternative?
At the moment its a bit bodged with a jubilee clip holding it in place
My second task today was the N249 bypass, as alot of the hoses were weak!
This all went fine, took some time because of the stupid clips Audi put on the smaller hoses but no big dramas.
On putting it back together i think i may have a problem....
As i put the metal tray attached to the dipstick holder back in place i heard a crack...
I think the Dipstick holder may have cracked, common i know.
Firstly what should i do? the dipstick is still in place, just feels loose.
Should i be driving it?
And lastly i have been looking for a guide on how to replace the dipstick to no avail... Anyone created one?
Any comments much appreciated!
