i can do it and have, but im 3100 miles west. its a job, but overall not bad. just kind of time consuming since its buried under everything. and like i said in a previous thread. it might be a crackpipe, but im not sure if anyone has verified it, i can look at it when i return. ---

as long as you are replacing the crack pipe upgrade it to a billet one so you dont ever heave to deal with it again. I replaced my vr6 serp belt and that was a whore because its shoehorned in there. on a mk4 it should be easier, back to the crack pipe, on my mk2 I would pull off the upper rad support and pull teh rad, then you have perfect access to it. I would imagine you could save yourself a bunch of headaches by doing the same. here is general how to on the crackpipe [http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=2385488](http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=2385488) ---
