Thanks. I’ll be doing this next week. Got the tube for 3.98 with free
shipping on eBay.
Just checked my dipstick and it’s knackered – but thanks to your video I’m
going to have a go at fixing it on the weekend. Thanks a lot! :-D
This pisses me off that volkswagon is cutting costs and putting out
inferior parts. I work in a shop and these break all of time. Let’s put a
cheap plastic tube close to an engine that is putting out tons of heat on a
daily basis. At least its easy to replace I suppose

Plastic, fantastic.LOL
Awesome he explained everything in detail.
Thank you so much! I’m not sure why I couldn’t find it. I’m quite certain
this will be perfect for my 2001 Jetta!
Do you know the part number for the funnel tube? I have looked under VW
Jetta and under universal parts and can not seem to find the funnel tube on
Rock Auto. Thank you!
Thanks a lot
I love hearing stories like that, Mason. Thanks for the feedback!
Great vid! This is the best one I’ve found. I recently noticed I had this
problem in my 2001 Jetta 2.0. Also, that is the cleanest engine I have ever
seen! Was it new or did you use some type of cleaner on it? Thanks again!
I was just going to take my daughters bug to the mechainc. Not now!
Thanks!!!!
Awesome. Thanks!
Thanks I have the same engine and the same problem
Great video….I have the same issue. Would it be a problem if I drive
around with a broken tube while I wait for the new one to arrive?
Thanks for this video:)
Thanks! Went to vw and paid 15 for the funnel tube.
Thank you for the video! well done!
I can’t believe I almost paid $90 bucks for a mechanic to do this. Thank
you for the help! I got my car fixed up and saved a ton of money.
It’s 06A103663C. They have two. One’s a buck ten, the other is $8.03. I’d
buy the one for $1.10. 🙂
Thank you for taking time out of your day to make a very well made video…
Now I gotta go fix my gti!
I like this info. I had this problem also it gave me a better understanding
as to how it was connected. I have the Diesel 1.9 2004 model it does not
have the top holding part. I found I could cut the part that is left on the
metal from bottom to top a bit with a razor knife and pull the old one off
instead of cutters so it came up/off as one piece.
I was going to take my wife’s car in to the shop to get this fixed, but
watching this video gave me full confidence that we could do it ourselves
and we did. Thank you very much.
