2.0TSI 09 GT V Band Clamp Snapped. Diameter?

Post by Chronos121314 »

Hi,

My v band clamp on my 2.0tsi scirocco gt 2009 has snapped. I need a new one and just want to confirm what size diameter it should be?

Is this one too small?

Thanks

I’m pretty sure that’s the correct one, may be worth getting a couple of extras (a size up and a size down) that way you are covered either way,
Alternatively I would just take the one you have and pop down to local motor factors and compare it as that one in the link seems really expensive to me.

It was the correct one and fixed the blowing/rattling noise at 3k rpm for anyone else who has this issue.
