Intake manifold geometry regulator rod 077198327A length 2 inches (long)

One of the common problems of Audi and Volkswagen cars with eight-cylinder engines of 3.7 and 4.2 liters is the failure of the intake manifold rods 077198327A.

The problem is expressed as follows:

• Reduced power at low rpm.
• The consumption of fuels and lubricants is increasing.

This is caused by aging and failure of the intake manifold geometry regulator rods. There are swirl flaps in the collector, which begin to move due to the action of the vacuum regulator. Plastic rods are used to move the dampers.

Plastic, as you know, is not the most durable material, so after a certain time of operation it becomes unusable and eventually breaks, joints (including ball joints) can still loosen. Because of all this, the detail begins to fly off.

Solving this problem is a trivial task, you just need to replace a small spare part. However, manufacturers Audi and VW produce rods only as part of the entire complex 077198327a. That is, you cannot buy a part separately, respectively, the costs can be serious, because such a system costs about $ 300. And if you need to replace two at once, then all 600 come out. You can buy rods separately from us at a more than affordable price (you can verify this by looking at our website).
