Hi,
We have a split in an air hose I suspect is connected to the intercooler but can someone please tell me what this pipe is and where is connected.
My wife is complaining that the car gets juddery, almost like wheel balance issue when accelerating around 60 MPH , I also think economy is not very good at the moment and it has never been one for accelerating as a turbo car should.
This pic is not from my car, its one of an identical engine from the net so if it belongs to a poster on this forum .. Thanks.
I have drawns a red line to indicate the split. My car is a 105bhp 1.9 JTD (2000) W Reg.
I am also going to inspect other pipes and connections, clean the MAF sensor with Iso alcohol and follow the EGR cleaning guide, though the drill bit and the springs look worrying and I dont have carb cleaner just brake cleaner ?
Any suggestions on how to repair the hose on a temporary measure, Gaffer tape just seems to bubble after a day or so. Now Thinking of a SOCK and then Gaffer tape but its on a bend so more aukward.
If anyone has this hose for sale anywhere then I would be interested in hearing from them. There are a selection on Ebay but not sure which is the exact hose.
Thanks for your help.
