Looking at getting these for my T5 2.5TDI AXE van. They do seem a bit pricey, did they completely cure your 'whistle' issue? I have an annoying whistle too haha
Yes they are in one go. But. About 60 more than replacing all standard ones. Sometimes a chirp or small whistle can be from intercooler. Small holes as they get peppered with road stones. Have had mine for years and they are solid. Be aware the bends are not perfect and I had a little rubbing on a few parts. As all after market mods there are niggles. I would not go back to oem as they are not made to last. Can do a follow up vid of them in van now and where they rub etc if u are interested. I don’t like to spend if I don’t have to on anything. When I think back to how may times I asked my mechanic to look at pipes before I think I’ve began saving money. No regrets here 👍👍👍
That whistle could b a small crack in manifold or somewhere else at least this will eliminate one thing. If u can get someone to smoke test to see for leaks that would b best but finding someone I found difficult and it’s costs 👍👍👍
@@daddyfixit5188 thank you so much for the quick reply. Would love to see them fitted In the van (can’t find even a picture of them actually fitted to a van on the internet)
I honestly don’t know bud. Search their site forge motorsport I think it is and give them a call they are v helpful. That 1.9 may b the golf engine so u may b lucky 👍👍
I bought that same kit, seems a very poor fit, hoses too long & kinking, along with jubilee clips I’m not that impressed, will probably buy original Vw instead!
I recon they did not send correct kit or pipe not in correct place. Mine did not fit perfectly. Call them I’m sure they’ll work it out for you. I know it’s going to b inconvenient but if you can sort it it’s. A better option than original 👍👍
