This is not a probability of success.

I’m guessing that is effective but looks like I also have to replace the O-ring at the inside of the elbow cause I had smoke coming from there as well, that’s why I just figured Id replace the whole thing and be done with it, 54.00 from pelican.

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.

7 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Good afternoon. Can someone help me identify this part that is leaking during my smoke test this afternoon. It�s some sort of plastic fitting shaped in a 90�. Thanks in advance. I have a really nice video of it, but I can�t seem to get it to upload

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Awesome thanks for the information

POST 4Original post

http://www.autoatlanta.com/porsche-p...section=107-10 Parts 3, 22, 23 There is an early version of this set up too. U may have to do some searching as this leak has been discussed before.

Thank you, that diagram is super clear but my fitting that goes onto part number 3 is straight coming from a corrugated hose not a 90� elbow?

After another search I found where some people had just taped that fitting? I’m guessing that is effective but looks like I also have to replace the O-ring at the inside of the elbow cause I had smoke coming from there as well, that’s why I just figured Id replace the whole thing and be done with it, 54.00 from pelican.

POST 7Original post

They are notorious for leaking, had the same issue. Replaced the o ring (which immediately cracked into bits) and all is fine ever since.

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