Thanks! Anyone have any suggestions on crankcase breather replacement? I see this one http://www.ecstuning.com/Audi-C5_A6-....8L/ES2215417/ - on sale right now. Blauparts has a more complete kit with evap valve for like $170... ugh.
this will help!

someone said the breather hose from esctuning has clip issue, it just don't hold the crankcase firmly. I cann't remember who exactly report it but I ordered the geniune audi part from online dealer @$87. It marked OES from the package that's why I believe the one I get from dealer is actually the same of esctuning. good luck
As for the original question...
I got the esctuning tuning kit and installed it today. It seemed very similar to the OEM one, IE rather flimsy, but I also don't have another point of reference to compare. It seemed to fit ok, almost exactly as OEM, and it didn't look like the clips were any weaker than the OEM but I'll keep an eye on them over time I guess! The old hoses literally disintegrated when I took them out! Man! Thanks for your thoughts!

Lastly... I finally found a PDF with a basic engine diagram (page 14). Good for newbies like me.

Thanks so much to the unhelpful people commenting about money. Your input on my financial choices is really appreciated and a pleasant addition to this forum.
