Is this a passat? Breather recall? The new par doesn’t need to be replaced 9 times out of ten and the rear hose is the only part that needs to be replaced. In fact the old breather is a better part and the new one they put in doesn’t have a check valve in it. He was actually trying to do you a favor. > I worked for VW for 14 years, I worked at Cooley for three of them, that place sucks period. > Ps how the fuck did any of you learn from randy fucking howarth? That guy is a bonafide fucking retard. 1. Then Eddie should know the ins and outs of the car as well as customer interactions. The only reason I insisted on talking to him was because he was insisting the part was installed in my car even though I was holding it in my hand. 2. I brought it to Cooley because it was closest to where I live. I live in Wynantskill. 3. It was in insulating piece of metal that went between the new breather hose and the intake. That insulator was not part of the recall so I expected it to be placed back where it was installed from the factory. All in all I just wanted to share my experience. If you look, I’ve shared positive experiences with places here as well. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/bad-experience-cooley-vw/265573)._
