G3 Rocker Cover Breather Hose - 2.0 (2E,AXC Engines)

Replacement cylinder head cover breather hose for VW 2.0 8-valve petrol engines, including engine codes 2E and ACX. This hose connects the rocker cover to the crankcase ventilation system, allowing oil vapours and blow-by gases to be safely routed back into the intake system.

On ageing Mk3 platform engines, these hoses commonly become brittle, split or collapse internally due to heat and oil contamination. A failed breather hose can cause unstable idle, oil leaks around the cam cover, increased oil consumption, vacuum leaks and mixture-related fault codes.

Manufactured from oil-resistant rubber to OE specification, this hose restores proper crankcase ventilation and helps maintain correct idle quality and fuel mixture control.

Recommended when carrying out rocker cover gasket replacement or general top-end servicing. Always check routing and connection type before ordering, as variations exist depending on engine code and production date.
