    Water manifold to turbo pipe

    Having narrowly avoided blowing my turbo up as the above hose was hanging on by a thread. It is proving not the easiest item to get hold off...

    anyone know if they are NLA??...as Audi keep saying it will there tomorrow..

      Which bit of pipe do you need? Sorry I'm being thick but I'm knackered. If it is the bit that Andy mentions above your stealer is probably messing you about as it comes on a 5m roll and you only need 73mm. They will probably want you buy all 5m. I can order it but I would have to charge you for 1m (although I guess the warehouse wouldn't notice 73mm missing off the end of the roll )

      Give me a call in the morning (or drop me an email) if you like and I'll look into it for you.

              Any of you guys got a spare 73mm of either the reinforced hose or the proper OEM one. I got a piece of hose to do this but I'm wondering if it might not be up to the job. I think it is fairly ordinary heater hose but it does have thin cords inside the walls - do you reckon that is reinforced or are all water hoses like that.
