Nothing to it,wait while it is done should take about 10minutes.

Think it has something to do with the water drain being extended to prevent it dripping on something.

Mine was done at a service together with the engine management recall. Although I have a under engine cover on my petrol auto, it didn't get the recall for this to have new fixings, which the diesels had.

It's not extended,the end of the air-co pipe is cut.

Why was the recall, was the water leaking into the car or something. To be honest I didn't have a problem with it.

Why was the pipe cut ?

End of pipe(stupid flap bit)cut off to make it fit better in drain hole.

Why was the pipe cut ?

The edge of the pipe is closed like a valve to prevent dirt from clogging the pipe.
Sometimes it fails to open to release water. I had this incident and the result was accumulation of water on the floor inside the car and ESP error messages because the ECU located on became wet

The ecu in that area has nothing to do with esp?
