Replacing vacuum lines is as simple as pulling the old line off, cutting the new silicone hose to the same length, and reattaching it. Do it hose by hose and you won't have a problem.

Here is a vacuum diagram for the AWM. Also, there may be a diagram on the underside of the hood.

Following lines is no problem. I just didn't know how many there actually were on the AWM.

This is perfect! Thanks!!

I just realized that the diagram I posted is for an AMB motor, it should be very similar (if not the same) as the AWM though.

Here is a little DIY I found: http://www.passatworld.com/forums/61...uum-hoses.html

Edit: This should be the AWM diagram.
