What did you do to your Polo today?

Hmm sounds a bit gay

Did I

are you just pleased it was just the clamp let go?

Well, it's kinda complicated

Those spring clamps are $hit (and a bitch to install/remove with pliers or multigrips).

Yeah look at the marks on it
Every time I touch it, it gets scratched


The pipe kit I got was for a PoG, doesn't really fit the PoD route
So I improvised using some silicon elbows from the SMIC at the time

Chuck that spring clip and get a jubilee for it instead.

Just ordered some pipes and clamps online that will suit the correct route

Damn shame about the turbo upgrade though!!

Haha, someday

This arvo I got a quote from VW spares for VW Coolant System replacement hoses , $820 ouch! Thermostat, $80.00 ouch! Anyone got a better option for Thermostat?

I have the Pentrite G12 pink already. What else do I need for a Coolant System service?

While I was at it clutch throw out bearing, $120. Just for the future as JMac recommended uisng the WV one with the ECS kit.

So googled the old group buy on here and found an Aussie site and placed my order on line at http://samcosport.com.au/index.php/r...oses-7422.html for the SamcoSport Silicon Coolant Hoses (6 pack) in Blue with some help of Ross at SamcoSport. Ross was very helpful and so was Kim was too. From order it will be 6 to 8 weeks to get these made up by SamcoSport UK and to me, so I am told.

Why do you need a thermostat Al? Was that for standard hoses. I have lots of the common ones from mine and Anthony's in my garage if you have damaged ones.

Hi Gav,
Thanks for the offer. Mine is fine but I thought that when doing a coolant system service, the thermostat gets replaced?

How much did the silicone set cost? I run silicone hoses on my bikes and they are great.
