My check engine light came on a while back. Running Lean on 1. Think this might be my problem. It's all cracked and has a hole in it. Anyone know the part number so I can go to the VW dealer and get it. Thanks!

it's some kind of check valve, I forget the technical name for it cuz it's only on I4's but I don't think it's to expensive

yea its a check valve, just go to the dealer and show them what it is and they will say "ah yes i have one of those" they are $3-10, while not really expensive, still a rip off for 15 cents worth of plastic.

it's just a generic one way check valve. the 30v 2.8 has them too. the one on top of the airbox is famous for melting first. any auto part store should have one

Might want to buy a few of them because you might end up finding the other ones needing to be replaced too.
