Filter housing replacement
#3
Yes I can see where the small size and the in line barbs would make it easy to fit. The only available space for a conventional two bolt mount diesel filter housing is over on the battery case by the looks, (RH drive) The plastic crankcase breather dufor normally slotted onto the intercooler would need moving to the side a bit on my xtdt as well.
A translucent bowl so you can visibly check for water would be good to have though.
Does anyone know the description or a source for the clear fuel hose? I imagine it is the same material as the black stuff.
I have refitted the original black plastic hose using a little heat on my 405 successfully.
If it wasn't for the clear hose I would not have known about the air because the car still runs fine while the bubbles are running.
The original can be re-used, it is already connected to the filter by a short piece of nitrile hose and jubilee clips.
Thanks for the info, I will enquire about the price of the audi filter, and how easily they can be bought.
