I've got a Punto 1.4 T-Jet 09 reg. I noticed that the pipes going into and out of the box with an arrow on it, located top centre of the engine bay, are both cracked. First question is this something to do with the ventilation system? Second can these pipes be repaired?

can you upload some photographs?

At the top center of the engine bay is the ecu, I think it may be the covers for the wiring going to it, im not sure if you can replace but you could wrap it with electrical tape.

Here's some photos. it looks like wires are inside the 'pipes'.

Thats how they are (i think) they look like cables to the plugs for the ecu the conduit is split to allow wires to be inserted and exit at various points yet afford protection from chafing


eg

Like Andy said, that is how there suppose to be, so no need to worry

Thanks Andy and JackFi and Happy Christmas to you

Thats ok, and a Happy Christmas to you too
