Title: Breather Hose Filter Size
Post by: Miker on February 14, 2019, 06:58:50 PM
I haven't taken out the stock air box yet, but plan on replacing it with pods.  What size breather filter is required (ie what is the ID of the breather hose)?  I see a lot of 9mm and 12mm online.  Thanks.

Yea I initially responded to a relative thread I found, but decided to make a new thread anyway.

Interesting responses haha.  I slid a micrometer in there and measured the OD of the hose as 16mm.  So a standard 3/8" push-in type filter should work.  I buy everything on the cheap as I have nine dog kids to take care of.  I also sourced parts for a oil cooler upgrade and TDI (commonly known as CDI) replacement in the same way and I'll post a write up on those when I have the time.  Thanks for the effort guys.
