PSA!!!! For everyone with a '00 or '01 or '01.5 1.8t that is chipped, Replace your Suction Jet Pump
This is the 3rd chipped 1.8t that I've diagnosed with a leaking Suction jet pump.

I diagnosed it about 5 Months ago and AutoXJunkie (justin) decided not to replace it...
Well, It has since BLOWN APART!
The housing ruptured right where the largest circular diameter on the left side is bonded to the main housing....
The digicam is dead so I can't take a picture of it...
All I can say is go to www.1stvwparts.com and order part number: 058133753B It's $18.07.
However, It would also be worth while to order different size one time use clamps from Mcmastercarr. I just ordered one bag each of 5 different sizes just in case. That way I'd have a bunch extra for later. They've really come in handy...

It's actually a well-known weak point of the PCV (?) system in the 30v.
First discovered on AW with the 2.7tt. Same basic problem in the 2.8. I guess it's the same in the 1.8t, too.
Not hard to replace. Just DOOOO EEEETTT!!!

it's is attached to the Brake Booster... which is why it affects the brakes when it cracks open.
It happened to me going into a turn with a 200ft cliff on one side... not the best time to loose the brake booster on a 3700 lbs car.
