Hi.

I took off the engine cover from my Lion today and wanted to 'modify' the EGR hose a bit, but now there are two hoses there, and I'm not sure which one is which icon_rolleyes.gif icon_question.gif.

Since the hoses:

I would be very grateful for clarification!

PS: I think it must be the one who goes to the silver can...

You got it right.

The other person controls the parking brake lever.

Thank you for the super-fast reply icon_exclaim.gif.

The shut-off valve is used to 'turn off' because the ignition is off, but I thought that wasn't the case with diesel engines... am I wrong this time?

You're right, you're thinking wrong icon_exclaim.gif.

Older TDI engines do not have a bypass valve and can still be turned off.
The flap only reduces the actual compaction and thus the shaking when stopping.
