| rar110 Member Since: 09 Aug 2014 Location: Brisbane, Australia Posts: 1119      | I got into it this morning and quickly found a passenger side (right hand when looking at engine bay from front) intercooler hose was split on the top at the bend.

| PaulB Member Since: 17 Jul 2011 Location: Hampton Posts: 877    | I think I need to get pressure test done. I can't find any leaks or splits but something isn't quite right. | ||

| northernmonkeyjones Member Since: 24 Mar 2012 Location: derby Posts: 8788      | You sometimes need to take the hose off to see the split or it could be under the webbing. Also don’t forget the bottom hoses, there is another 2 at the bottom and some round the turbos as well. There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

| rar110 Member Since: 09 Aug 2014 Location: Brisbane, Australia Posts: 1119      | I’ve been driving for about 5 days and the repair seems to be holding up. I still haven’t organised a replacement. ______________________________

| DavidS Member Since: 23 Jul 2014 Location: Valencia region Posts: 73      | Just be aware that as the hose is damaged it can still collapse internally and cause the dreaded bong, happened to me soon after my temp repair like yours. | ||

| rar110 Member Since: 09 Aug 2014 Location: Brisbane, Australia Posts: 1119      | The silicone tape fell off and the fault reoccurred. So reapplied the tape and then secured the silicone tape by wrapping it in electrical tape. That held up better.
