air duct

[glennhod]

hi everyone where can i get a new intake pipe or do i just buy some ducting anyone know the size of duct i need if so

I have exactly the same question . Mine is reinforced with sticky tape, it might be upgraded to duck tape if I can't find a replacement.

It appears to be about 700mm long (though mine is in 2 sections).

There are some promising results on eBay however not sure which to order as internal dim is 60mm and external dim is 70mm

Also, your duct appears to be longer, mine ends in the engine bay, is it normally stuffed up the cavity going up to the side air vent?

Actually looks like it needs to be 65mm ID.

VW Classic parts have them part number 071129615A £11.57

They are actually 63.4mm (2 1/2") id x 720mm long. You can also use flexible aluminum hose.

Hi Stuart,
It’s not a item we sell unfortunately, I believe second hand only, but looks like it should be 63.4mm wide x 930mm long according to ETKA. We do sell 60mm x 1000mm aluminium air hose, our part number is 028129087B, which could be adapted.

Page for VW Classic Parts though I think I may look for something more robust.

Also this is an option:

930mm is the wrong one unless yours looks like 11B
