hey guys, does anyone know where I can find hoses that go from the PCV to catch can to inlet? I have improvised with the OEM hose but it doesn't look right and I'm sruggling to find some hoses long enough and also that fit the connections in order to reach my catch can

 

 

something similar to this that doesn't cost £400

 

1.6tdi

I've always used ash hoses, Cant fault the quality.

thanks for the advice but it's not what I was looking for. I was looking for hoses with that type of connector.

My bad sorry. What model is for out of curiosity?

It's for a 1.6tdi. The connectors pop inside of the PCV and have an O ring around then too. 

 

If I were to buy a hose that goes over it and secure it with a jubilee clip, then the hose would be too big to attach to the fittings of the catch can. I'll post a picture of what I've done. Very redneck style. 

Doesn't look there's much available apart from forge etc but as you mentioned it costs a fortune. Doesn't an EGR valve effectively do the same job on a diesel? Sorry I may be way off as I've never owned a diesel.

I was hoping someone knew but it seems I have to work something else out. 

 

Not really, the egr recirculates exhaust gases, this recirculates oil vapour from blowby and runs in back to the intake. So a bit like an EGR but a lot simpler. 

 

Thanks for your input 👍

 

Mine was so much easier!

 

Sorry I couldn't help bud, See @AMD87 as I think he ran the rtmg catch can on tdi his for while.
