im not sure they do they should be an interference fit, how much did you pay mate as im after some too, and do you have part numbers

 

[ian_cupra]

i'm off to get them in a min, only about a quid each i think, will put part number up when get them

when taking them out was a rite biatch so thought they was glued in

Post pics mate!

 

[chrisbond69]

yeah as forbez said pics too please im sure there not glued, prob tapped in with rubber mallet ask the garage when you get them they should know

 

[ian_cupra]

part number is 06B 133 555 H

will put some pics up in a min

 

[chrisbond69]

did they say how to fit them

I need to get some of these asap, as my 4th injector is leaking after the inserts took a bashing when the mani got polished.

Thanks for the part numbers.

The bits are threaded in to the mami then the injectors are puched in, thats it.
I think it's a 20mm allen key to get the bits in and out of the mami.

 

[Olly20VT]

The part number on mine is 06B 133 555 D 14 duno why they are differant to your's

 

[ian_cupra]

mine are white, look the same though,

there really tight fit too, which is good.

pics up very soon

 

[PhilW]

Wonder if theres a size difference between the two.

I'm sure i have green ones in my mani.

 

[ian_cupra]

maybe, these ones seemed to fit, will soon see when i get it fitted, see if its leaking boost

hope not

 

[Olly20VT]

Mine that are on the car at mow are green and I've got a new set wich are blue (in pic) I've put my green top 440cc injectors in the blue ones and they seem a good fit.

 

[ian_cupra]

trying to be different to everyone else hence the colour! its a metalic grey. rocker cover and charge pipe the same colour too! what ya think??

 

[PhilW]

Scratch that. Mine are indeed blue. But my manifold isnt the one that was on my car originally so it might have come from a TT etc...

Looks good, did you get it smoothed first? can't tell from the pic.

 

[Forbez]

How much was that lot?

 

[chrisbond69]

looks like a really good job im awaiting mine to come back from polishers once smoothed it will then be powdercoated mine are green on mine,

 

[ian_cupra]

just fitted the manifold, plus power gasket, took a while but its done, just gonna take it out for a test drive now and hope that nothing is leaking!!

Cost me £20 for rocker cover, charge pipe and manifold to be done
