When removing my engine cover to fit my 007 I found a split breather I would imagine it's a crank breather does any one know the part number so when I call Skoda I have a number found this pic?

Thanks in advance

Oh and would this effect my mpg??

Get that one, £20 cheaper than a rubber one from Skoda.

The rubber ones are prone to splitting.

that ebay one looks good. Failing that I've got a genuine one less than a year old you can have for £18 delivered?

ive just got in from fitting a new temp sensor on my octy vrs and found the same pipe split on mine on the join between the 2 pipes on the under side,

i will be requiring a new pipe too.

well if mart don't want my pipe the offers there for you phil.

tis the season of split breather pipes.

cheers mike,i will await what mart says,

i also found another pipe split that goes from the front of the engine,along the bulk head and into the brake unit

Hello mike sounds like a deal to me pm me to sort out payment and that cheers bud

I had one of them too:

Rather than replacing the pipe, I have used a couple of layers of heatshrink on it. Seems to have done the job

what is that pipe thats split?
