little bit different as i have a Citroen dispatch for Gigging, but anyhow, day before i went on holiday i popped a boost hose i think, it's a bit hard to see in the Dispatch bay as the bonnet doesn't extend to the back of the engine but gonna have a look in a bit . . .

anyway where are the favourite places for hoses to pop off or split? . . . .

cheers ma dears, need to sort this ASAP as i have 4 gigs this weekend . . Undecided
Ive replaced quite a few of the plastic bottom pipes in my time

what are they like to change mate? . . ..haven't had chance to have a look yet as i just got back from my hols last night . . .
Not bad at all tbh, there's plenty of access to all the pipes and turbo from underneath

do they usually crack/split then? . . . .it's making a tiny amount of boost to my mind so i figure it's probably that rather than a completely popped off hose . .Smile
Yeah they do, usually along the joint straight up the middle, you'll see what I mean when you get under there

aye well should be fun finding it, was motorway cruising though and heard a big pop, thought a tyre had blown out at first, realized it hadn't, loss of power, looked in rear view mirror to see stupid amounts of coal and everyone moving to overtake me . .lol
found it lol . . . . . .
