What Audi parts do you make?

The Filtech Air Filter Induction Kit for the Audi A3 8P 1.6 (2004-2013), and the Audi A3 1.9 TDI 131hp ASZ engine EGR blanking silicone hose. Both are direct-fit items rather than universal parts you cut to size.

What is the induction kit?

A performance air filter and the pipework to fit it to the A3 8P 1.6, replacing the restrictive original airbox arrangement. It is a reusable filter rather than a disposable paper element, so it is serviced by cleaning and re-oiling rather than replaced.

Is the EGR blanking hose road legal?

Blanking off EGR removes an emissions control device, which can affect the MOT emissions check and the vehicle's road legality, and on a car still under manufacturer warranty it may cause a dispute. Many customers use these on off-road, competition or engine-swap projects. Go in knowing that.

Why do people blank the EGR on these engines?

The 1.9 TDI EGR system recirculates exhaust gas into the intake, and over time that combines with oil mist to coke up the inlet manifold, costing airflow and driveability. Blanking it prevents that. The trade-off is the emissions and legality point above, which is a real one.

How do I know these fit my car?

Match on model, engine code and year - the A3 items specify 8P 1.6 (2004-2013) and the 1.9 TDI 131hp ASZ engine code specifically. Engine code is the reliable identifier on VAG cars, since the same model year can carry several. If unsure, send us your registration.

Do you have other VAG parts?

Yes - the range covers VW extensively including Golf MK5 GTI breather hoses, 1.9 TDI PD130/PD150 EGR blanking hoses, classic VW fuel filler hoses, and Seat Ibiza 1.4 TSI induction kits. Search your model, and ask if what you need is not listed.
