Breather question

[Key Walshe]

I've done some searches and not found anything which has answered my question. So I'm hoping someone can help me out. I've just had my turbo reconditioned and before I fit it I'd like to replace/clean the breathers.

The main issue is the one to the right of block, often known as a 'darlek'. I believe its similar to those found in VW's. Tried one of my local stealers and special order only. Anybody know who stocks these, and is there any other parts worth replacong, breather system. or other.

Thanks

Its not a 'special order' item... what the stealer probably meant was that there wasn't any sitting in the Audi UK stores... and that it would have to be 'back ordered' from Germany - which takes a few more days. There's really two parts that you need. The 2nd one isn't essential if you don't mind degunjing the original part - they sludge up quite bad.

1 - PCV control valve 'aka' the dalek - 034 129 101 A (approx 10-12 quid)

2 - PCV flame trap - 035 103 477A (approx 6-8 quid)

Give all the hoses a good clean & check for splits... renew clips... job done.

Dalek

You can take it for granted all S2 parts are "special order" only, everything will have to be brought in from stores in Germany IME.

Thanks for the part numbers Paul, I'll get some ordered this week. Got full silicone hoses a couple of month back so they're all good. Took it for a test run and all seemed good, so all's well...



... for now!

Mcandmar, the few times I've had to use my local stealers for anything, I've had to wait or walk away in despair at their service, or lack of it! Do you know of any good oe parts suppliers who are good for parts, and prices?

Look up a thread from our own Ben Watkins, aka 's2avant' - he is the parts daddy at Coventry TPS and is our best link to OE parts - with some forum member discount too. TPS provides original parts to Audi, VW and others in the UK. You will have to collect parts yourself or make arrangements for collection by a courier.

Just got the parts now from Warrington Audi. £21.95 all in so not too bad. The PCV valve has been superseded with a B at the end 034 129 101 B for anyone else looking for the number and was £12.67 (exc VAT).

I was surprised to see the other piece as a spring! Oh yeah, there was a Nogy blue RS2 there, sadly. I could only see a wing of it, having a new rad fitted

Would they be the same part numbers for AAN?
