Il have a look tomorrow bud if that's ok, if I do find it don't worry you can have it👍

Hi Danny bh, found it in my shed👍

Is turning the ignition off and back on again a quick fix for this? I’ve ordered the part via ebay but can someone give me brief fitting instructions please?

Hi mate, my problem in the end turned out to be the manifold so I ended up having to have a new one which I bought online from Skoda ( think it cost me around £600 Inc fitting) after turning on my ignition for the 3rd time bought the eml light on so I had to keep on plugging my obd reader to reset it which was a pain in the ass! From memory I don't think it's a difficult job if yours just needs the flap, guy did a video on YouTube on his passet I think but with the same engine as mine (170 cr), hope all that made sense mate!

Here is one provider of the repair brackets, for what its worth.

 

I cant remember if it is who I used on my Tiguan (plastic manifold) but they certainly were in consideration.

Hi everyone. I have the same P2015 problem and a plastic part instead of the aluminium one. However, the part number on mine is 03L 129 086 V120 and not the 03L 129 711 AG. Is anyone able to confirm that the two parts are the same and the repair kit works on both? I’d be very grateful for any expertise! Thanks 

 

 

Hi mate, I think from memory and what my mechanic said that the repair kit only works on each individual plastic/ ally manifold etc, but I had to have a new manifold in the end anyway as it was cracked

Thanks. I wonder if the number in the photo isn’t the manifold but the throttle body. I’ve just been looking on the car but I can’t see a part number on the actual manifold. That would be way too easy! I’m trying to avoid a new manifold as the car is long in the tooth.

That rings a bell yes, there is a difference in the shape of the repair bracket.

I just googled that number it brings up, air intake manifold flap actuator, I bought the ally bit for my car hoping it would do the trick untill I got a bill for around £600 for a new manifold Inc labour but my car had about 140k on it so was well worth my spending the ££ on him!
