  1. Volkswagen Passat B5 Discussion
    This deserved a separate thread because AndreasPassat and I are discussing an issue that is puzzling. He's convinced that there are two orings, and I only have one. I have one on the old one I removed, and only one came with the new one I'm about to install. It mounts on the outside of the...

    Hi all. I'm hoping I can get a part number validation. I have a 2000 2.8L ATQ that was leaking coolant. It's all torn apart and I've ordered parts that have come in, however I think I may have incorrectly ordered o-rings. Specifically from the REAR COOLANT PIPE. Checking this site oemepc...

    Where can I find info on these o-rings, or purchase them? I need to know diameter, size, material, etc. I am in a hurry to find some since they may help me get home. A duct blew apart on the way to work. I stopped and found the cause of the noise and loss of power, and I can put the two parts...

    Just installed a used engine in my garage and got it running. It sounds good and runs smooth...but it has a bad coolant leak. I traced it to the hard metal line that runs underneath the intake manifold. I need the part # for the o-ring that seals the smaller hard line for flow from the heater...

    Hi, I will do a compressor change + some service to my A/C system soon. I guess that I need to replace the O-rings for the connections I opens up. The O-rings used are standard sizes, but does anyone know which O-ring material used? I plan to buy these from a hardware store rather than genuine...

    The radiator hoses and heater hoses on my 1.8t are fine but while I have the car apart I would like to replace the o-rings that go inside the plastic connectors at the ends of the hoses. VW (unbelivably) does not sell these o-rings separately. Any ideas on a source??? Thanks J.Calhoun

    Trying to reduce a slight rich condition, I replaced the injector o-rings on the bottom of the injectors. The ones that seat into the intake manifold inserts.Showed signs of slight leakage on the manifold from 3/4 injectors. Set of 4 from Advance Auto Parts, Fel-Pro part #ES70599, $2.86, in...

    I have a '99 1.8T and I have some fuel leaking around my injectors where they meet the manifold. I have the o-rings I just want to know if anyone has done this before I start taking things apart. Should this be covered under the powertrain warranty by any chance? I have had some very minor...

    Ok, so I picked up the ECS tuning ultimate timing belt change kit. Getting ready to make sure I've got everything I need for the job. As I'm reading Chilton manual, it refers to a few gaskets and o-rings that should be changed when removing parts for the timing belt job. Questions: 1) How...
