353 views and no one can point me to new liners. Last week i had a look at the ahnendorp site they have 94 mm piston and sleeves, i wrote to them asking if they sell the sleeves only, haven't had a reply as yet.

I bought a new set Cofab pistons and liners and used only the liners.... maybe the AA's will workout cheaper for you....

I bought them from a german internet parts supplier and he said they where Kolbenschmidt..... (wrong piston height) after showing him some pics I got them cheaper.... So, maybe AA's will be cheaper for you.

Good luck finding liners :!:

Cheers

I took a wire wheel in a drill today and clean up the portion of the liners that come into contact with coolant, the stuff cleaned right off.

Have you check you original liners if they are in spec and out of round ?
Also if they are genuine vw or aftermarket ones ?
What is the issue with them ?
I have reconditioned genuine ones in case you still need them...
