Re: Burst turbo hose
Hi all,
Had my diesel in for its 80,000km service yesterday, and mentioned to them that there was oil leaking from that top intercooler hose, hoping to spark some discussion about the oil separator issue.
Anyway they came back to me with the verdict that the hose was actually damaged and needed to be replaced.
So they ordered it in and today I had it installed.
My original hose looked very much lick a normal radiator hose, black rubber. The new hose is a grey (oil resistant?) material with a piece of wire that winds around it (for strength I imagine).
I have also discovered that newer models have the new grey hose on them from new, so they must have improved it at some stage.
There has not been any change in performance with the new hose, but hopefully I won't have any problems now with the new improved version!!
