RS2 intake vacuum fitting part number

[saltinot]

Thanks for the offer but unfortunately the AAN motor does not share this fitting.

I hate to burst your bubble, but 034 145 779 D is the vacuum fitting on the cold side of the turbo that connects it to the WGFV. It is not the correct size unfortunately. However, please post back when your part arrives to descibe what you have.

Stupid question probably...
Does the AAN have the same part fitted somewhere?

If yes I have a complete AAN sitting in my grotto I can take the ****** out from it and send it to Giorgia easily...

Confirmed!
034 145 779 D is the right part. I've asked directly to Audi Tradition in Germany and this is what they said:

Good morning!

That´s correct part, yes! And it is still available at your local Audi dealer.

The original part on the RS2 inlet manifold is M8 so maybe the 034 145 779 D might work. The WGFV hose is a larger diameter hose I think. I'll have a look tonight.

I've had my eye on part# 034 133 578 C, which I will order and then see.

I've already tried 034 133 382 T, which turned out to be the connection on the inlet for the ISV.

034 145 779 D is the one that seems to be the right one looking to etka.
I've been to my dealer today and he said there's still stock in germany so I have ordered one.

I'll let you know if that's the right one or not

So the thread size is M8? I'm almost sure we got some here in our local shop, I can ask alround. Fitted this to my Comp, threadsize it 1/8NPT though...

[Jonas_R]

Tom I have some contact for a firm in Denmark that sells all kinds fittings for cars.

I'm sure he has something, I could ship it with the other parts if you like?

But just to clarify, it needs to be M8 thread? and then what size hose does it need to fit?

[madpugger]

Tom remind me before le mans. I'll take one with me for you.

[saltinot]

I'm still on the hunt for a replacement also. Not an issue yet with the motor still on the stand, but need one soon.

I need to start asking around though. Not much luck in the US since this is a M8 fitting.

I have the same problem as Saltinot.
I've been searching and reading several forums and came up with the image above.
Don't you think those nipples in the MBC could work?

[Jonas_R]

Just buy a fitting with the hose nipple of 5mm and then get it with some kinda NPT or BSP thread slightly larger then M8.
All the machine guy needs to do is re-thread it to M8, that should not cost more then 10-20$ if you ask nicely

[saltinot]

Serious. I'll ask around.

[martinjs]

Yes, I spoke to my machinist a few months back and he said he could make one from scratch if I wanted, but the price would be around 70USD.

Ehh?? are you serious? try a different one, coz i think he's taking the pi##
