New coolant pipe needed
I fired up my 1986 1.8 gti today, left it running for a few minutes when it sprung a leak spraying water and steam about.
The coolant system has a hole in the metal pipe that is part of the pipework connecting the coolant header tank to the
water pump.
If anyone can provide me with the part number and description I'd be very grateful since my online searches so far
haven't met with success.
Thanks folks
