  • Where to buy Metric Vacuum hose

    Hey guys,

    I am looking to buy some 3mm vacuum hose to replace some of the tattered ones in my B5 S4.
    Are there any places in Calgary that stock metric size hoses? Or am I stuck ordering online?

      Green Line Hose will have something suitable. Plus they will have proper clamps just in case you need to replace some of them.

      here are some suitable substitute sizes if you cant find metric:

      3mm - 1/8 ID
      4mm - 5/32 ID
      5mm - 3/16 ID
      6mm - 1/4 ID
      7mm - 9/32 ID
      8mm - 5/16 ID
      9mm - -3/8 ID
      10mm- +3/8
      13mm - 1/2 ID

      that should do just about everything under there

        Dealer should have it - probably not that pricey. Tunedub might have it too. Better choices online likely, but if you need something fast....

              Thanks everyone!

              I ended up buying the 3.5mm OEM braided hose from the VW dealer for $14/meter
