Anyone know of someone that can mend air con pipes? Assuming with today's technology it can be fixed that is! My mark5 gt tdi air con pipe has lay against the fan belt or pulley and has a hole worn through it. Hoping there is a cheap and easy fix and doesn't need expensive replacement part

A sliver solder braze should fix it if you get it off the car

If you have it removed from the car ( which obviously it would need to be ), any aircon installation type places should be able to repair it.

How much is a new pipe ?

Ring TPS for a new pipe, or ring a few breakers.

If you're pulling it off anyway, it would make more sense to replace it.

Haven't really had time to look at it myself, if a pipe doesn't cost a lot then I'll replace it, I just was told it could be all connected in such a way that I'd need to replace the whole system, obviously I was looking a cheaper option! Thanks anyway guys

The cheapest and quickest way to repair it is to apply some quick steel, steel hard in 15mins.
