20l FSI engine urgent help

Post by jhsvd1967 »

Hi all,
I servised my 20l fsi Eos yesterday and the oil filter housing was so tight that it broke when trying to take it off. Does anybody have such a housing that I can buy as we need the vehicle running today

I know its late, but could you not have tried getting it from GoldWagen and the last option would be VW themselves but not sure if they open today.

Hope you managed to come right.

It's the little things that make them run right. Anybody can slap a basic bottom end together. that is the easy bit. It's all the little things that makes these builds a success or not.

Thanks guys, managed to get a secondhand one and fitted it. Had to buy the whole housing that bolts onto the block so if anyone needs the top housing part I have it.
Seems to be fine now
