water course

Post by les »

hi all just replaced the water course on my s1 td the guy on the parts counter told me that back in the day they would remove the o/s drive shaft to aid removal however after some thought i decided this would not help that much as restriction still looked very cramped the hardest part i found was releasing the spring clips on the hoses due to the posistion of them i could not get the grips to compress them enough in the end i had to squeeze the hoses right at the entry point on the water course this caused the water course to split and crack releasing the hoses replaced all three with good quality jubilee clips which i was able to posistion easily to tighten anyone changed one of these with easier results please tell
