BEW fuel line into tandem pump PN?

2004 Golf PD BEW. I need to find the part number for the fuel hose going into the tandem pump on the side of the head and if someone knows where to order that would also be nice. I am to far from a VW dealer (still) and there open hours don't work out with the hours I work so an online place would be nice. Thanks for the help. Mine is starting to weep. The hose is not dripping but the whole hose is wet and has been cleaned off but it becomes wet again. I just don't want to spring a larger leak. Tandem pump is NOT leaking nothing else it leaking but that hose feeding into the tandem pump.

I'm not quite sure which line you mean, but it should be possible to find it on this drawing. http://www.auto-parts.spb.ru/cat/au...1VJbdQ/8x6LAYfjFj5Sb1RNhNyRIMv7xuYxvIEEoD5Yd3

Hope this helps.

Well, kind of helps but at the same time no. It is 18/19ish. The specific hose isn't marked. It is NOT the one with the temp sender on it. Too bad there isn't a parts catalog that is better for the VW's.

Check out #18 on this link, in English: http://www.wagenstad.com/index.php?modid=216&page=2-201-26

It is part of a whole assembly, pipes and all. Goes across the valve cover to and from the fuel filter.

038-103-308-M should be what you need. About $170 list price, IIRC.

Ouch. I might have to make some straigh hosing work then at that cost. Thanks for the help.

I had the upper formed fuel line weeping and as OH mentioned, I had to buy the entire unit: http://www.idparts.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=2011

I did try some fuel line that was not formed and found that the line didn't bend well and created a crimp which had an impact on the car's performance. I'm wasn't too keen on the price either... dang VW!

Wow, that is just plain BS. Thanks VW for sticking it to us. Let me see, $3 rubber line-hey lets through in $160 more in the metal piping and sensors and really stick it to them even though the rubber is made by someone we just won't tell anyone where. There, I feel a little better from the rant but I still don't feel like paying that much just yet.

The first problem I had with my car was a pin hole in the fuel line between the metal pipe and tandem pump. That was back when I thought I wouldn't need to work on cars any more, so I took it to a mechanic, Dr Dan in Seattle, and rather than getting the complete assembly he got about 24" of 5/16 barrier lined fuel line and made a easy loop towards the air cleaner to transition from the pipe to the pump. Any direct unformed fuel line will kink in that tight space. I thought it was a simple and creative solution that I didn't see.

Might just have to try that one then. Thanks.

I eddited my prior post because I checked and it took 2' of 5/16" barrier lined fuel line to make the loop.

Ok, thanks. I also checked idparts and they only can get the full system as well.

To update this. I broke down and bought the piping and installed just the one rubber part yesterday. Kind of sucks it was so much for a little piece of rubber I needed. If someone wants the rest of it I am selling $60 shipped.

I hope you got it from 1stvwparts.com. Its a lot less than your local dealer.

I did idparts actually. Free shipping and no sales tax is hard to turn down.
