Hi there,
As above! I have a leak in vacuum pipes somewhere, want to buy a 5 m roll and replace it all. Can someone tell me what guage I am looking for? Many thanks in advance.

Going by the measurements on ETKA, you need 1110mm (360, 50, 320, 80, 300) of what they spec as 5x3 N 0202 282 1 and 3165mm (1000, 45, 70, 880, 300, 440, 350, 80) of 3.5x2 N 020 353 27.

Thanks for that. Am struggling to work out the size...is that 5mm and 3.2mm guage? Any suggestions where I can buy lengths to cut? Any would you by any chance have a vacuum pipe diagram! Appreciated.

THe inside dia on vac pipes must/has to be a 3.2mm to be a very snug fault

Thank you. I have bought 3 mm silicon piping, which apparently has a bit of stretch to it. If you think I have done the wrong thing please let me know! Cheers

VAG call it 3.5 but as Mike says it really measures 3.2mm and certain applications it is 2.8.

You can make anything fit with some lubricant and if you push hard enough :naughty:
