Hello,
I have been reading this forum for a few months now since I got my brand new 2013 GTI Wolfsburg Edition.
I drove a little over 8000kms since I took delivery of the car in April this year.
I took some time on Saturday to clean, wash and do some usual fluid inspection. While I was looking at the engine, I noticed something weird on the tube bringing the air from the outside to the filter case.
It looked like somehow the plastic got hot and retracted at a few places. I do not remember if it was like that when I got the car, and would like your opinion about it.
Here are the pictures:
So, do you guys think this is normal? Do you have the same thing on your GTI with stock intake?
Thanks for your help, it's my first new car, and I may be worrying a little too much, but that does not look normal to me.
