michael calvert Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 where the oil cooler pipes connect to the filter housing there appears to be two fitting (one on each pipe) male to male so the cooler pipe can connect into it, (the cooler has a female end and so does the filter housing) anyone no the part numbers for these? ps its for a 300 tdi! cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest diesel_jim Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 On the Tdi's i've had, the oil pipes were male and they screwed into a female casting on the filter housing. do you mean on the radiator? mine had a male-male threaded bit (and they're different threads for Tdi radiators and TurboD rads! the thread for the "pipe" is the same) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

western Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 oil filter head adaptors are NRC8618 only used on 2.5 petrol,2,5n/a diesel,2.5TD & 200Tdi engines, not listed for 300Tdi as the correct hose screw directly into the oil filter head.

western Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 Sorry Micheal, haven't a clue of the thread size/type, try your local mobile Hydraulic repair man [Pirtek or similar] he should be able to help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
