Part # wanted - rubber intake connector

[Key Walshe]

Found a boost leak on my car and would like to find a part number for the item if anybody knows it.

Its the rubber connecting piece which goes between the solid plastic intake hose, which runs parallel with the engine and then goes round the back of the block, and then joins to the throttle body unit. It has a smaller piece coming off it which I believe is a sensor? I'd load up a pic, but sadly I'm resorting to using my phone and its unable to load pics to the net I've tried to find a number on the part, but can't see one without removing the piece.

Hopefully that description made some sense, so does anybody know which piece this is, and the number of it? Oh yes, its for an ABY engine in an Avant...

Thanks for any help you guys are able to come up with

Cheers Jason, I'll go get a price for that asap...

[Jas11n]

Approximately £17 or there abouts

[Key Walshe]

Ah good man... You're a treasure trove of information! Anything sub hundred quid on this thing will make a nice change, so £17 sounds a bargain! Is that main stealer prices or reputable spares supplier, if the latter, any suggestions?

[Jas11n]

Dealer, my bro bought one back in Jan

Hi Key, I believe you spoke to my friend Barry last week? I would have called down to have a chat but i was busy. How did you get on with the boost leak?

[Key Walshe]

Managed to find the leak yesterday, so with thanks to Jason knowing the part number, its a trip to either Warrington Audi or Smith Knight Faye in Bolton this week! Hopefully, that will solve it... Its been poorly for too long now!

Seemed a nice pair of fellas up there at Autograph! Happy to have a good look round the car to help solve the problem and their computer said the only problem was the lambda sensor, as was thinking it could have been a coil issue. The Gumpert Apollo they've got in there is some piece of kit - not the prettiest of supercars in the traditional sense, but its form through function and it looks very purposeful! Very much like a GT1 car from a few years back, very impressive and Audi powered too so even better!

Shame you couldn't make it down, since owning mine I've only seen two S2's and thats in 2.5 years now! One was EricD at the NEC with his Nothelle Coupe on show, and an unknown black Avant at 3 Sisters race track near Wigan! Oh and a black RS2 near Newcastle-Under-Lyme going the opposite way... Never found out who that was. I believe yours is an amethyst pearl one too? Great colour aint it

[RAOUL]

Glad you have managed to find the leak. Yeah mine is an Amethyst Coupe. Good set of lads there. I get quite a few bits from them for mine, helps with the fact i'm good mates with Andy & Barry. Are you going to any shows this year? I'm going to Edition 38 again as we (Barry & me) had a right laugh & drink last year!

Jas11n,

What type of S2 does your brother have, just nosey/curious?

Kind regards.

[Jas11n]

Same as me, 1995 S2 Coupe (two weeks younger).
His is Kingfisher Blue.

[ericd]

can you remember if the lambda error they found was "561", remember to clear the errors after you install the new TB hose and before you take it for a run

[Key Walshe]

Eric, it was a 537 code. It says;

00537 - Lambda (Oxygen Sensor) Regulation
11-10 Control Limit Not Reached - Intermittent

Any ideas what that could mean?

[Key Walshe]

Oh yeah, forgot to add Eric, it came up with it listed as being a Nothelle 'Mue'. Always knew it was given the history I got with it, but nice to see the car itself say it is too

It came out with a long list of letters and numbers too for the component - HLHEIM xxxx xxxxx CODE2 but not a clue what that means?
