hello ...

I noticed over the last few months that I was getting an exhaust blow from the exhaust manifold. Yesterday i got around to fixing it and found that there were two studs missing from the exhaust manifold, which were on the turbo end. (engine is a JX 1.6TD) While working on the engine, I noticed that where the exhaust bolts to the turbo, there is a bracket for a support; Mine does not have any support for the turbo and think this is what made the studs work loose.

Does anyone have a photo or diagram of what this bracket looks like. Any ideas where to get one?

Thanks in advance

try vagcat.com you'll need to register to see the diagrams




hmmm can't remember if mine has a bracket either ... will have to check!

Great help. I was a member of vag cat and forgot all about them

Now, any idea where to get one from?

Hi - I've just been sorting out my AAZ install using a JX manifold and fitted exactly the same bracket.
I bought mine from VW and was £30 incl VAT. Possibly a bit steep but time of the essence, etc.
Part no = V068145841A.

I also got the relevant set-screws for both ends ( 2-off each end) as follows:
VN0102517 & VN0102336 - £2.20 all in for all 4.

Hope this helps!

Brilliant information.

I will keep an eye out for a 2nd hand one, but if I can not find one then I now have a back up.

Thanks a lot.
