Hello everyone,

Over the weekend I noticed a small hose near the air intake had broken away from it's T piece connector.

Can anyone please identify this hose and it's function?

For the time being I have used cable ties, however the connection is no longer air/water tight.

Thanks All!

Just a guess, but it could be your idle-up hose connection.

Hi Guys,

Thanks for your suggestions, I hope it is just the air return from the power steering pump and nothing too serious.

Cheers
