A MASSIVE Crack In the TT's PCV System (1.8t) | No Idea How It Ran So Well

[@rushardmiller9229]

Keep cranking out these great videos. The TT community is really small and we need all the help we can get when doing maintenance on our cars.

[@HunterDirection]

I am glad you are enjoying them! I really appreciate the support:)

I have a vacuum leak and keep getting a P0171 code: System too Lean Bank 1.

[@TheRealMcJack]

got a 180 a month ago turns out the last owner snapped the dipstick tube, decided to do it myself, ordered some long reach hose pliers, while i had the covers off iv noticed an inch n half split in the tube that comes off the main top breather hose… it’s the wobbly one with the smooth section to avoid the bit on the head, it goes down and in the bottom. now ordering a full hose kit. it’s needs suspension bits all round, iv got a new tyre aswel. but i fuckin love it 😂 good job i dont have kids!

[@HunterDirection]

Woah I just checked them out, that looks like a great part! Ill look into getting one for the car as a future mod:) thanks for the support!

[@moncier77]

Plus the owner of Cloude 9 is a real person, he will answer anything for you

[@HunterDirection]

@@moncier77 That's even better, its always nice when a company like that is willing to help/answer questions:)

Hi, I have a 08 Mk2 TT, these are great cars. I really enjoy mine. I got it 4 months ago and it's fun car.

[@mrt4013]

You spoke really well.

[@HunterDirection]

Thank you! I appreciate the support

[@BogusBolloks-mf4wq]

Heeeey i just saw your video. I have the 180 Golf 4. Had mine for 10 years and been fixing things eversince. I replaced part of he pipes but not all. Nice cars😀

[@Al-qv5vs]

Good video. I probably have the same problem. My tick over is lumpy. But I don't get ant engine code. Maybe when the weather is better here. Thanks for video.

[@HunterDirection]

I really appreciate the support! :) Glad to hear you enjoyed the video.

[@doctordub4501]

'Iplan on building project cars for the rest of my life and documenting it here, thank you SO much for watching I hope you have a wonderful day.' breath of fresh air in a world where everybody says remember to click the bell.

[@HunterDirection]

Thank you so much! It makes me happy you enjoy my approach to these videos! I am glad to have you aboard.

You should have done a pcv delete. My 225 tt got a pcv delete. Right now I'm finishing up with building my engine with forged internals

[@HunterDirection]

Yeah I have been looking into a pcv delete as well as a catch can! Always something I can do in the future haha. That sounds super cool!

[@jungillestt02]

Can you use the 225 on the 180?i just bought a 180 quattro and the there's a slight needle dip at idle

[@CarChris82]

i just ripped it out and fitted a catch can from cloude 9 i have done a vid on it

[@HunterDirection]

That's awesome! I've got a catch can on the way as well. Thanks for the support!

[@CarChris82]

@@HunterDirection no problem 👍🏻

[@ibiochateau3263]

Magnifico video, amazing, donde compraste los tubos del sistema pcv, gracias...

[@HugoMDTerra]

where can I get this ? can’t find it anywhere

[@HunterDirection]

I believe ecs and urotuning have them:) Here is one I found on urotuning for the tt225: www.urotuning.com/products/vacuum-pipes-under-intake-manifold-mk4-1-8t-aww-awp-06a145691cb?currency=USD&variant=8392245641271&Google%20Shopping&gclid=Cj0KCQiAgP6PBhDmARIsAPWMq6l62MCaI3JKoRplV4-LRhz8BobK0snBa-JgC2JBl7G32--bsxDE0YcaAuHrEALw_wcB Let me know if this helps. Make sure to get one that matches your engine code etc: amu/awp

[@allardsonnema5165]

Maybe a good idea to do on my TT 😁

[@HunterDirection]

I'm really glad I did it. I had no idea the leak was that bad until I took it off haha. Thanks for the support!

[@allardsonnema5165]

My rpm goes on startup up and down. So i know i have a leak somewhere. But it can be a real pain to find it. If your are in a hurry you can pull the cabel of the MAF sensor. It goes to a base map, idle will be better and you still can boost al you want. But it wil run richer.

[@HunterDirection]

@@allardsonnema5165 That is a really great tip! If the car runs better after unplugging the maf you can also tell that it needs cleaning/replacing. Thanks for the support!

[@TheJiri7777]

You could link all the parts you use um the descripton .

[@HunterDirection]

That is a great idea. I have been looking for another pcv set like the one I used but I dont believe ECS has the same exact ones in stock anymore. I will link the aftermarket equivalent. :) Thanks for the support
