its a 2000 bug- there is an air leak coming from a from this sensor type deal- it takes the air that blows by the piston rings and puts it back in the intake- it is located right before the intake manifold on the intake duct- it has 2 hoses connected to it- 1 big hose from the valve cover, and 1 little hose coming from like a check valve- it also has an electrical connector- what is the name of this part???, and how do u get it off???

You have to buy a new intake pipe, vw molds the pcv valve to the intake pipe (dumb idea) so you have to repalce the whole intake pipe.
You could try to jimmy rig it with some silicone adhesive.. but it might not seal the leak.
