vacuum hose question to U.S. listers



Hi,

ALL german Scirocco 16V were equipped 
with MFA and 260km/h gauges by factory.
Therefore all had that vacuum line.

ALL my 8V Sciroccos without MFA also had the vacuum line,
as this is also needed for the consumption LED/ fuel consumption gauge .

seems like only the export models were mostly without it ??

Anyway, I have sent Craig info how to add the vacuum line 
and the DIGIFIZ problem is fixed now.

friendly Greets
Dirk

only mfa cars have that vacuum line
it comes from the intake manifold, so he can just tap it from there.
