Title: Do I have something missing? (with pics)
Post by: D19 STE on May 23, 2011, 10:56:04 am
As title, I have a 2005 2.0 MK5 Golf GT FSi (not GTi) and looks like I have some sort of engine/coil pack cover missing from the back of my engine  :confused: also I have a rubber hose loose that catches on a metal bracket  :confused:

Here are my pics

And I have pointed out the rubber hose in the pic and the bracket is right next to it that it catches

Any info/advice would be appreciated  :happy2:

Found this picture on Google. Would appear you dont have anything missing.

I tried google and I couldnt find any pictures of the FSi engine bay  :surprised: :happy2:

Just wish it I could see how their pipework it situated at the back of the engine in that picture as I cant make it out.

Just heard off a ford forum Im missing
Quote from:
there should be a breather resevoir bolted on the top in the middle according to my VW guru, oh and two screws holding the coilpack/leads down, these are missing

Does anyone on here have a picture of a fsi engine bay like what Ive taken so I can see how that pipe is secured  :confused:

Not sure exactly which engine version you have but Elsa shows it looking just like yours too

Cheers for this  :happy2:

I Think it says in my vehicle data manual my engine version is BLX if ive read it correctly  :confused:

I wonder what holds that rubber pipe/hose in place in my 3rd picture then  :confused:

That metal bracket just above the pipe you've highlighted certainly looks like its there for a reason.  Looks clean where a bolt / washer might have gone through it recently.

Thats what I was thinking about the metal bracket, just a shame I'm struggling to get hold of some clear FSi engine pictures to  look at that area  :sad:

Have you tried Auto Trader adverts? Sometimes people post pictures of the engine bays . . . .

There are holes there but it comes from VW without any screws like all the GTIs.
