I smelled oil burning after every drive, so took off the plastic cover on 4.2L A8 engine. There is a hose carrying oil going from the side of where you would fill the oil to the passenger side of the engine. Located on front of engine. It is completely cracked.

Could someone let me know what the partnumber / name of this hose is?

Thank you for your time in advance.

Since the link doesn't work, what you have there is part of the crankcase breather system. If that hose looks like that, the other hose parts in the system probably look worse. They deteriorate because of the oils in the crankcase fumes they carry back to the intake.

Here is the correct link to the Audipages article....http://www.audipages.com/Tech_Articl...atherhose.html

Good Luck Finding one, as they are not cheap and the sources the page suggests no longer stock such part numbers.

One place to look is ECS tuning, another is GK Europarts. I got my replacement hose from GK, as they were cheaper than ECS.
