Advice please

Post by Turbogirlie »

Hi,

Looking for a new Vacuum pipe with non-return valve for my 8V GTX (part number 172611931C) and have tried Mark at Classic VW without success.

So doing a search on the internet I've come across this company. Anyone heard of Cars245.com and had any dealings with them? Trustpilot reviews aren't good at all.

Don't want to lose money to some scam website...

Any suggestions would be gratefully received.

Hi and thanks. Unfortunately this part isn't the right one. I'm looking for 172611931C, which is slightly different to the one that is listed on Ebay.
