Pic from **ka (of course) for coupe quattro 3B, thanks Caterpilllar. Have changed all small hoses a while ago but not this part. Chasing a boost leak and will have a look at it it soon.

Its a water trap fitted to the 3B. I have one in my car. Its inside the car, just trace the boost hose back from the ECU and you will find it.

Tis a water trap alright - also fitted to S2 and RS2 in the passenger side A-pillar - near the ambient pressure sensor...

Thank you Tom, quick response here on the forum as usual.

Another q., pressure tested today, and it seems I have a slight leak into the engine, when I took of the oil filler cap the "hissing" sound was louder. Guess it is leaking past the piston rings. I plugged all hoses to crankcase breather etc so its not leaking that way.

This is not a good sign of course, but does it mean my engine is in bad condition?

Cheers,

No, nearly all cars will have piston blowby. Dont worry too much about it.

Thats what I was hoping!

@All

Sorry, little off topic but what outer diameter must the Boost leak test device in the RS2 have? Or what is the diameter of the RS2 's MAF?

Thanks
