what’s this part called?

[slender escarp]

2008 Volkswagen Golf GTI
Its the part that connects the coolant line/hose into the engine, its like very small and white
It was leaking but it snapped completely today

Top right image is the part but snapped in half

Barbed nipple

[slender escarp]

u potentially know what size? I bought a 1/2” today and it was way too big

[vast valve]

Deffo not 1/2. Try to find the entire plastic piece the large hoses connect to. I doubt you will be able to replace just the nipple

[serene cairn]

Best bet is just replace the pipe, you’re probably not finding another nipple, nor is that gonna be plug and play.

[slender escarp]

I did find one, how come not plug and play? Theres a little clamp that holds it together

I could easily take it out and back in

[serene cairn]

yeah the nipple is apart of the hose I believe

I mean if you can go crazy but it could start leaking if you just put another one in there.

[slender escarp]

Whenever u press that thingy together it releases the nipple part and u can pull it out

[serene cairn]

Oh its just in the hose

[slender escarp]

yeah its not really part of it

[serene cairn]

Yeah then you’re probably fine. Just use worm clamps next time so you don’t gotta take pliers to it.

Probably a guy on a Subaru form with a part number that’s an accurate fit though. Would check that before just going with random shit from Advanced
