Part finding problem!!!

Post by beneldude »

Hello,

I have just joined club 80-90 and it looks awesome, especially the wiki bit, really useful and easy to understand!! Can we get something like that to help us understand women!!!

Anyway I have just bought a T25 and am getting to grips with changing filters, flushing the engine, general tinkering and also ripping out the hideousnous of the inside, I may post pictures, I think the fella who had it before me had an obsession with small bits of wood and screwing them into anything he could!

I need a new 'Inlet Manifold Heater Thermoswitch' also perhaps known as a Temperature Sender. I have been to numerous auto part shops been onto the GSF website and Just Kampers and cannot locate the part. It is pictured in the haynes manual on page 3.7 and can been seen in pic 10.3.....

Does it have another name that I don't know? Any ideas where I can get the part.

Cheers :shock:

Welcome Beneldude, there is not a wiki for understanding the fairer sex, cos that would take all the mystery out of it wouldnt it! :wink:

Welcome in, and enjoy!

Good luck with your part search.

I have been to numerous auto part shops been onto the GSF website and Just Kampers and cannot locate the part.

Welcome :D

Phoning GSF is sometimes better, depending on your local GSF staff, can be heaven or is it hell, as the Eagles sang :)

If no success with Part Nos or description, keep asking here, OK :?:

But today its lavendar scented hand soap, rather than good old Swarfega :(

Good thinking there's a shiney garage like you said but I figured that sales people would just look blankly at me and try to get finance on a Passat or something!!

PS didn't mean to cause offence by the women/wiki comment! Am just trying to win my girl round with the 'shed'(her words) I've just bought!!

I suggest you first say your after a part for a wedge, when they look at you all confused say sorry you mean your T3, when that fails call it a T25. Only ruse the correct name of type 2 transporter when they look like they are going to cry :lol:

Success!!!!!

I've found the part the actual PN is 035919369C, I can understand why it's hard to find the part using the Vagcat website as this part looks like about 4 others!!!

Thankyou to everyone who helped.
