    Comprehensive Vacuum lines and Valves replacement DIY?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I've done some searching and can't really find any article that gives you a comprehensive look at the different hoses and valves that are know problems on our cars (1.8T). Does any one have a suggested resource. I'll take a parts list or whatever you have.

    Thanks

    Yeah man. My dv gave me a good scare couple of days ago. Never knew that little thing could cause so much trouble. And I have a boost leak somewhere. Waiting for my air compressor to be delivered to conduct my boost leak test. As Biketsai said, there are just too many hoses to tell which ones are faulty.

    Best bet is to maybe do a boost leak test on the regular, get a Bentley manual (great manual), and replace the hoses or vacuum lines as needed. That is what I plan on doing anyways.

    The Spartans do not enquire how many enemy there are. They enquire only where they are.
