Hello, I was surprised to discover yesterday that there are two free cable guides in my engine compartment. Both are located near the two pressure valves. I have taken two pictures of them. See attachment. Can A3 drivers (facelift 8L) post a picture of the same area here? Perhaps the workshop forgot to put a cable back in during the repairs. They certainly had enough time and opportunity to do so icon_smile.gif.

'I don't own an 8L model, but in my Leon, it looks exactly the same.'
It seems normal, as I've seen this type of hose package before.

"Yes, it looks the same on the ASZ Golf 1J."

The nipple is used to attach the hose of a faulty EGR valve, at least in my case icon_biggrin.gif.
