Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I bought headers and the drivers side went on easy enough. The passenger side is a pain. There are coolant lines in the way. Max speed says their headers won't work because of the coolant line. Fabspeed says " NOTE: Slight modifications to the factory coolant line are required on vehicles equipped with a Tiptronic transmission." Mine are knock offs. Does anyone know what mods are to be made. Any pictures? Thanks for the help.

POST 2Original post

maybe you can show the pictures as to where the interference is? sounds easy enough to bypass... no?

POST 3Original post

Did you get this sorted out? I had this exact same problem and had to have a custom line made. I can get some pictures in a week or so when I have the car back on the lift if needed.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
