Switched N75 valve last night and also replaced hose attached to it. Quick question IRT the hose.

Switched out some vacuum hoses last night with Hose Technique replacements. Noticed the hose coming from the DV had two diff. diam. holes at each end. Replaced with a single HH hose.

Any issue with that?

should be fine as long as they're tight and snug. if you're worry ziptie them or go with some clamps

also, i'm going to pass on the O2 but thanks for the pics.

I used two different diameters

with a plastic reducer fitting to mate the two hoses

Yanno, that's an interesting idea. Someone here posted a few weeks ago saying, "vacuum is vacuum

is vacuum."

I am certainly no expert, but at the moment I cannot see the reason for the obvious difference in the hose ends (but there must be or else Audi would not have done so, right?).

Any ideas?
