Default heater core hose(return) leaking

Audi a6 c5 v6 AGA
As my post couple weeks ago, my heater core hose (return) is leaking at the quick coupling connected to engine. The o-ring in quick coupling is worn.<img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/2/heater core hose o-ring.jpg">
however, I check the coupling housing is fine.So I am wonding if I can buy a o-ring only, not a whole hose (very expensive),but there is no any information about the o-ring in ETKA.

Could anyone help to give me the P/N of the o-ring.

Just ask your dealer parts guy or go to home depot and get a buna-n ring. You can also go online (google) and get a Vuitton o-ring. (gotta love spell check!) .

You can likely bring it into NAPA and they will match it up or you could just purchase an o-ring kit at harbor freight for around $10. I picked up the kit last year and replaced all the coolant o-rings when I had the engine out.

I think there is an o-ring from the VWs that may be the same. It's a 20x3mm size o-ring (N-903-653-02). That o-ring goes on a coolant pipe fitted into the block on the 1.8T transverse engines.

I had checked the worn o-ring the size should be 22X3.6 , and I also find a quick coupling that is for passat B5.5 heater core pipe p/n
1J0122291d $20 ,Now I am going to use the o-rign in it to replace my worn o-ring.
