THAT stupid little hose under the inlet manifold

Just looked at the picture again, is the smaller bore one included in the kit? the one just to the left of the green arrow that connects the steel tube to the banjo fitting?

Yes - both those wee boogers are in the Samco water kit. Think I owe you a PM back about that actually. Later...

Are those available as seperate iterms Paul? Just thinking it would be useful

Yes and No - officially Samco only provide them as part of the kit, but if I ask nicely I can get them separately.

BTW - I have some fat links in Silicone extra here in Black, Red or Blue if you need one. Can't remember price - send me a PM if you need one.

Glad you included the amounts needed for the fluid as I helped david (s2driveruk) refill/bleed his and we was not sure the mixes.

I wasn't really sure what ratio to mix it TBH Pete, have read a few different ratios in here from 50/50 to 20/80.
I'll nip over to my local specialists sometime next week and get them to check it at least meets the basic requirements with an antifreeze testing thingyjiggy (can't remember the name offhand)

Its a straight pipe so i would just cut it from metre lengths you can buy

In the pictures below you'll see the brown deposits in the expansion tank. This isn't corrosion inside the engine, it's the result of the Audi dealer goons that mixed G11 with G12
I've had 6 flushes over 4 years to rid the system of this brown sh*te.
Hopefully it's all gone.

Good stuff to use to clear the coolant system of all the deposits/stains etc. is to crush a couple of persil washing machine(or whatever the ball & chain uses) tablets into the expansion bottle, run for a couple of hrs ,drain, flush and you now have a lovely clean coolant system which will smell summer fresh!!!!

Works great on the oil/coolant mayo mix when the head gasket has gone......

The one to the turbo (thin one) is not a straight pipe, steps down from water rail.

As John McEnroe would say - "You can't be serious !"
Is that for real - have you actually done that to your own engine ?
