Struggling to obtain a genuine part (high pressure fuel pipe 03L 130 301)

[NicolasH]

Hi guys,

I’m struggling to obtain a part for my 2016 T6 102. I require a High pressure fuel pipe 03L 130 301. (thanks goes to @Niknak for finding the part numbers for me).

My local VW dealer isn’t very helpful so I’d like to buy online if possible. I’ve found one on EBay but it’s located in Latvia.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks.

Nick

Try a different dealer, if it’s a fairly small part ask them to post it

Can dealers search others for stock including TPS etc.?

Otherwise can't a hydraulics specialist make one for you? I guess that the unions are re-usable if they are not common items and the ends are probably standard single or double flairs.

I've since looked at some illustrations of similar parts an maybe I'm wrong about the ends so making one may be a no-no.

 

[Niknak]

These have special ends they are stated as use once pipes so yeah it is a no
Never have I used them again .....NOT

Do they deal with the public?

- for a 3inch pipe !!

Some TPS will deal with the public but they are supposed to be trade only,

It's outrageous!

If your local TPS can get it or has it in stock then your local dealer will (should) simply get it from them for you. My local dealer will do the necessary order from TPS and organise for me to collect when I needed a part quickly.

Thanks for the heads up Rod.
