OK, so I've put it all back together, set the engine away, and now I've got an engine management light on.
I did keep the air filter box off when I first started it, so I could get a good view of the new parts to make sure they aren't leaking, but I've put all that back in now, and the air flow ...

Further potential problems with cooling system
After removing the damaged pipes from the coolant system yesterday, I topped it up this morning and watched it run for a bit to see if I could see anything coming out anywhere else. I couldn't.
But what I did notice was the fluid cycling through the header tank as soon as the engine started. Is ...

Re: Coolant pipe part number request
Ok, thanks for that!
I don't suppose you can see from that whether the pipes will come with new seals, or whether I'd have to order new ones, and what the separate part numbers would be can you?

Re: Bypassing Heating Matrix/Bridging coolant system.
Yeah I'm fully expecting it to be a pain in the arse to get the new ones back on. They're not exactly in an accessible place, but hey ho. Just have to deal with a cold car for a few days.
I had wondered why it seemed to be leaking more now, than it was in summer. More demand on the heater at this ...

Bypassing Heating Matrix/Bridging coolant system.
Sorry to keep posting about this, but I'm struggling to get the bits I need.
So I've been kindly given the part number for the part I need to replace in the cooling system of my car, however, my local dealership wants over £100 for the part, and they won't be able to get it in until early next week ...

Re: Coolant pipe part number request
Do you mind if I ask where you got that price from? My nearest dealership are wanting over £100 just for the metal pipe without the hoses.

Re: Coolant pipe part number request
I've glued the snapped bracket back together to give a better idea of what they should look like on a schematic, and also included a photo of the bracket with what I thought should be parts numbers on it, but VW can't seem to find anything with.

Re: Coolant pipe part number request
They're the pipes which connect to the heater matrix port in the firewall at the back of the engine bay.

Coolant pipe part number request
Just need a part number for these pipes, if anyone can help please.
Also need the two rubber hoses that attach to the top of them.

Cooling System Schematics
Morning all,
I've got the day to myself, so as a last ditch attempt before I go for a bottle of K-Seal, I want to trace this damned cooling system entirely to see if I can find this leak, because it's costing me a small fortune in coolant fluid.
Does anyone have access to, or know where I can ...

Handbrake Adjustment following MOT
Evening all,
I picked up my Polo from the local MOT station following a Pass with Defects.
I like to try and tick off as much as I can myself, so that I know it's been addressed and shouldn't worsen, but I didn't quite understand what the lad was telling me when he was explaining the problem.
