R5GTT'S Cars rapid
Dan_FR:
Yours was definitely due mate, no question about it. For the sake of a £25-30 part its not worth taking the chance of cam lobe or fuel pump damage
Yes you can convert to the rubber fuel pipe. No idea how as I've never done it or even looked in to it, but I know I have read that others have done this.
r5gtt:
I've looked on the picture again and can confirm.youre right it definitely needed doing as I can see the holes on the old one are quite bigger as the top has worn down where as the new ones hole diameter are smaller. Thanks and glad I did it for peace of mind as it was off and I had the part to hand which definitely will save me thousands now :smiley:
I'll have a butchers as I don't like that design at all :stupid: yet again VAG.

Dazza posted the parts you need to convert it in the MODS section. http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?page=mods&mod=95
I was going to do the swap as well, but after removing the banjo bolt four five times now it gets much easier. You do it once or twice and its really not that much of a pain honestly. I bet if you did it again you'll do it in a couple of mins. I use a small 1/4" ratchet with a 2inch extension and it works fine.

Thanks for the link pesky :drinking:
5 times wt* man you're becoming a pro at this :rolleye:
I've just gone on another mission with the dv with seized screws ff* why me :doh:
r5gtt:
Looky what I found with mega boost leak and it's a flicking wonder why I bet my neuspeed P-flo pipe and Ramair filter didn't work :thinking:
Soon as I removed the last screw the thing fell apart all over the floor but the back end was still clenched in my hand. what a bummer to take off.
Unfortunately it's a rev B not that it makes any sense to me but looks like I'll be forking out for an update one now and go through all the crap of taking the wheel arch liner off and taking it off again.
Rev B when it literally fell apart when coming off my car
New dv+ fitted :happy2:
