  • OEM Parts sales from overseas

    Does anyone know of an OEM parts supplier from overseas?

    I'm chasing the following modified vacuum hoses with pulsation damper:
    7E0129458N
    7E0129458M

    There $200+ each locally and approx. half that from a UK VW dealer online after a quick Google.

    These are the upgraded/fix for the mooing/droning noise as per VW's Technical Product Info sheet I've found online.
    N75 valve and boost control valves are working fine as I'm not getting any fault codes for them.

    I've bought a lot of parts from the UK with no problem.
    Shipping is the biggest killer, so I've always got a lot of parts at once as many suppliers have a bulk shipping fee no matter how much stuff you order (within reason)

      Overseas suppliers

      I have bought from EuroCarParts UK, and Autoteile und Ersatzteile | Lott - Lott Autoteile (Germany), for lott.de you will need to use Google Translate, but that works ok and they are helpful enough, pretty good savings (around 50%) and OEM quality.

      Bad time of year for shopping overseas because of Christmas backlogs by Aus Post and customs, but YMMV.

          OEM Parts sales from overseas

          Has anyone actually been able to locate these parts from an O/S dealer?
          I am having trouble finding them.
          Thanks folks.

            Today I fitted the 'modified' vacuum hoses as per Volkswagens TPI 2027520/13, to solve the 'moo valve' noises coming from within the engine bay.
            Symptoms included the mooing noise and also when revving out in say 2nd gear the car would just lose all power, like it was losing boost, and then slowly pick it up again as you change up a gear.
            Taking it for a test drive was an absolute revelation as it now pulls hard, on boost all the way into the higher rev's (did this as a test only because, yes I know they don't make power up there) and it does not lose boost between gear changes and the mooing has stopped!

            A massive thank you must go out to Transparu on here for getting in touch with me about the issue after I posted a wanted add for a place to find the hoses online due to them being exorbitantly expensive here in aus, he not only found them.........in Czechoslovakia no less, then ordered, paid and sent them to me in Melbourne, all without wanting payment till I received them. Cheers mate.

            My suggestion to anyone with this problem that hasn't got the upgraded hoses to do this before just replacing the N75 valves. I am not actually sure when they were issued as a new model factory replacement so it would be up to you to check.

            Part number for both sets of hoses are as follows:
            Bi-TDI CFCA engines
            7E0129458N
            7E0129458M

            If you need the ones for single turbo just ask.

                          I only noticed it after I got it back from the clutch/DMF job.
                          The noise from them may have disguised it.

                          Is it a coincidence that things suddenly start going awry after VW has been fooling with it?

                            They probably thought they would lighten your wallet a bit more , same thing happened to our old T5 it went into VW for what was a suspected broken camshaft . Turned out to be a bearing in the aircon had failed and in turn it broke the compressor mount . So $3600 later I pick up the van and they tell me the turbo is leaking oil and needs replacing , what I love about VW is the way they so nonchalantly tell you how much it will be to fix . The service bloke tells me without a hint of emotion that it will cost $6000 to replace , yeah sure fella I have a lazy extra 6k just wasting away somewhere to put into you greedy bastards pockets . No wonder people call them car stealers , do you notice real honest mechanics have mediocre workshops and grease on their hands . Not these pricks multi million dollar workshops you could eat off the floor from , and that's how they get rich on us poor saps . Okay rant over got that of my chest . LOL .

                              Got my new EGR and moo valve from VW yesterday.
                              Funny..........the engine management light went out today on the way to the tip!

                              Anyway........I had a think about it and remembered that I filled up with truck diesel rather than Ultimate.
                              It's making me wonder.............
