TP27 Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 Question :- In the R you get a VAG air compressor and gunk kit instead of a spare wheel/tyre. The VAG air compressor is brilliant as it has a screw thread and is great for blowing up bicycle tyres too. Where can I buy a replacement one as I've now sold the R and my air compressor has gone with it?? I've tried to buy one on eBay and through uk-mkivs website to no avail. Not listed on VAG parts nor OEM parts sites and Euro Car parts are useless. Any ideas apart from paying OTT top whack at the dealership? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hotdog Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 Or try Halfrauds, they stock 12v air compressors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TP27 Posted November 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 The VAG unit has the screw thread valve whereas the Halfrauds compressors all have what I call the suction grip, not as good. VAG Parts are trying to source one for me, now that I have the correct part number! Thanks for the help guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
