    So a cheeky rodent managed to get in between the engine and cover and nibble through a small 90 degree section of fuel hose. Covered the engine bay in diesel, and car still stinks despite being kindly pressure washed down at a Skoda dealership near to where I broke down. Anyway, I'm struggling to find a small 90 degree section of fuel hose to replace as the bend is too tight to use a normal hose without it kinking. Below is the current solution, and the other photo shows a 90 degree elbow joint I was going to use but it is too big to fit in... I would get the part from Audi, but you can't get just the 90 degree hose the part comes with a load of metal pipes on either side which I don't need. Unfortunately the Audi Assistance chap took away the nibbled pipe so I don't have a picture of the bit of hose I need. Any help appreciated! (I think the Audi part number including the hose is 04L 201 360 G)
    Cheers, RobIMG_1937_800x600.jpgIMG_1935_800x600.JPG

    Thanks Mark! Didn't think of sticking the part number into Ebay. That price is much more palatable than the dealer.

    About £65 but not sure if that is pre or post vat. I was hoping I could get hold of a 90 degree bit of hose for less than £10...

    If it's just a small section of rubber hose, just replace with a small piece of fuel grade hose for a few quid.

    Trouble is with the 90 degree bend, such a short piece of hose kinks, hence need a pre-bent piece.

    and whats up with the current fix, the nice looped bit of pipe. it works just fine . shame to spend pounds on new bits of pipe for them to be chewed again.
