JoeNobody Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 Have you tried Vag Parts (www.vagparts.co.uk)? It wouldn't be second-hand, but they'd do a good a price and give you a discount if you mention Tyresmoke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 they are in red. TT's seem to all be in the same silvery/grey as the audi rings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallachie Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 Paul - you've the cleanest engine bay of any S3 I've ever seen! I would feel so ashamed if you spied under my bonnet!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallachie Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 What difference to the new hoses make Paul? I expect they're much stronger than the standard ones, I had to get some hoses replaced on mine a couple of months ago. I'm going to take a photo of my minging engine bay tomorrow and post it up, at least you will get a laugh at my expense! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 more robust, free flowing and appears to help top end Engine certainly sounded healthier for them. The hoses are smooth inside, with no lumps,bumps and ridges like OEM They are also the same bore all the way through, where some of the Audi ones were flared at the ends. Ive not had a hose slip off since, and cant get the famous collapsing intake pipe as these are reinforced full write up here, very picture heavy. post your engine bay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's an Autobrite around the corner from my flat, for £5 they do all the hard work! Living in a flat makes hand washing your car somewhat difficult.....
