While you are replacing all these hoses, get the proper clamps. VW has
superceded most of them to the spring clamp style. Allows for expansion.
Especially important on the plastic connections.

before anyone sets down the satchel to buy a hose kit, if you have a
good
dealer, call him and ask him to be competitive.  I have developed a
relationship with my parts dealer at VW, and he is selling me all the
hoses
and the AT cooler hose for $521.  and no shipping cost, he will have it
in 2
days. If you are ready to buy, pmail me and I will give you his number,
he
will do mail order, but you will have to pay freight.


Not too bad in my opinion.
