Regarding the vacuum pump, replacing the o-ring under the flat cover at the rear is a good idea too. That area is known to leak oil as well. After market kits are available on line (about $15) which contain three o-rings, the one you showed, the flat cover o-ring I just mentioned, and one for the check valve too. That is a smaller o-ring but it is important. If the o-ring is worn the check valve will rattle. tick-tick-tick. Nice video BTW, Hayabusafalcon.
I'm in the process of doing that right now... However I didn't have any silicone grease as I put the heater hoses in the fire wall or the water pipe on the engine side... However I haven't finished putting everything back together yet because I'm still waiting for the flange .. Do you think it would be worth it to take the hose off the pipe and put some silicone grease on it... It's in there pretty snug and should hold, but as said earlier I was just wondering if I should take it out and out some grease in it ..... I'm also afraid that if I take it off now, It might damage the seal...

I just order the whole set they have on ECS Tuning including the Vacuum pump seal. I can't wait to change it on my Audi B7 A4. I'm sure I'm gonna be cursing a lot since it's a very tight space behind the motor.
Taking off the intake, wouldn't make a big difference. Since most of the work is behind the engine block. The only thing that helped me, that he didn't show is removing the metal coolant line. If you get the whole coolant flange kit, you will be cutting or taking that hose off anyway. It gives you a little extra room
I think you are talking about the bracket that holds the ground wire?? If so, then yes....because if you don't put it back on, then you will have some electrical issues
@@SoHos74it’s kind of next to the coolant flange I think it just holds the fuel line although when you said it might cause electrical issues but idk if that is what’s causing that
This is exactly what I was looking for !! Thank you 👍🏾 I couldn't figure out where my coolant was leaking from but I see it now.

If your really good. This takes about an hour and just remove the vacuum pump. Just make sure you have the right part.
Epc light is on and the Q5 2010, is shaking . Do you think its the flange ???
Is this the cause of temp not reading over 70 degrees?
Have you got part numbers? Struggling to find some hoses for mine
I got mine from ECS tuning, just put in the make/model of your car and they will get you the right hoses

Is that bracket or piece of metal that came off the bottom screw necessary??

@214Oscar their is another bracket that is for one of the vacuum lines that goes behind the engine...

Did you use silicon grease?
