Will this hose fit my 1985 Vanagon 2.1 liter engine?

Yes, this hose is designed to fit 1.9 and 2.1 liter water-cooled Vanagons from 1983 to 1991, including your 1985 model. Its variable diameter ends ensure a proper fit on different air intake boot sizes.

Can I trim the hose if it’s too long for my intake boot?

Absolutely! The hose length allows you to trim it to perfectly fit your specific intake boot size. Just make sure you use a clean, straight cut to maintain a secure seal.

Is this hose better than the original VW part?

Many customers find this aftermarket hose superior in both durability and fit compared to original VW parts. It's made from quality materials that stand up well to wear and keep crankcase ventilation working correctly.

Should I replace other parts when installing this hose?

It's recommended to replace the breather tower and its O-ring at the same time to ensure a proper, leak-free ventilation system. This helps maintain engine performance and prevents issues like excessive oil consumption.

How does this hose help with oil consumption in my Vanagon?

This hose maintains proper crankcase ventilation by channeling gases correctly. A good seal prevents pressure buildup that can cause oil leaks or increased oil consumption, helping your engine run cleaner and more efficiently.

Le tuyau de reniflard de la tour de reniflard du carter de votre moteur est un élément très simple mais important pour la santé globale et le bon fonctionnement de votre moteur. Au fil du temps, les vapeurs d'huile du carter vont saturer le matériau du tuyau, le faisant s'affaisser et restreignant la ventilation adéquate du carter. Cela peut contribuer à un certain nombre de problèmes, y compris une consommation excessive d'huile.

Besoin d'une tour de reniflard et d'un joint torique de remplacement ?

Note d'installation :

Ce tuyau de reniflard ne fonctionnera que pour les Vanagons de 1,9 et 2,1 litres refroidis par eau.

La tour de reniflard possède un embout cannelé de 19 mm sur tous les moteurs, mais l'autre extrémité varie en fonction du préchauffeur d'air ou de l'embout cannelé sur le manchon d'admission d'air. Pour cette raison, ce tuyau a été fabriqué plus long. Si le diamètre extérieur de l'embout cannelé du manchon d'admission est de 19 mm, coupez la partie la plus large du tuyau. Si le diamètre extérieur est de 22 mm, retirez de la matière de la partie plus longue du tuyau ayant un diamètre intérieur de 19 mm afin qu'elle s'emboîte sur la tour de reniflard.

ugly as hell, but works great

Hose for crankcase breather tower

Fits perfect. Just wish it came in black. Thanks for your great part selection.

Hose for Crank Case Breather Tower.

Great quality and construction! although my current breather tower and hose looked great I replaced them as a maintenance item. I believe these are superior to the original VW part. I would recommend you purchase and rate this as 5 stars. R/jeff

Variable diameter hose!

Fits perfect for those models that need two different diameters on each connection!
Finally, a hose that fits right. Thank you go Westy.

When doing it

Was already replacing the breather tower so it’s a good time to swap this out too

High quality, correct fit

Right parts for the job always make it easier. It’s the right hose for the job.

Splitting after less than a year

This hose first started splitting at the in-line heat element, I taped it with heat tape, but it began to split open at the breather tube end causing a vacuum leak. I don’t think this hose is rated for high temps. Fail.

PCV hose from tower to intake boot

It's just a piece of rubber garden hose. It split when I forced on the connection. Luckily the hose comes longer than necessary so I cut the split out and used a heat gun to make it work.

Hi James, that hose is actually nylon reinforced silicone (to resist absorbing oil vapor and collapsing under crankcase pressure when hot), and is custom made for that application. You did a good thing using a heat gun to soften it up prior to installing it. If it splits again, let us know and we'll replace it for free. All the best, GW
