    Default plastic pipe to intercooler. – 15-07-2007,08:36 PM
    Hi again,
    I have the common oil weep from this pipe and was wondering if anyone knows if this pipe has an internal o ring before i pull it apart -thought a new ring may cure weep if there is one.

    Cheers Mate,

    As I have tray off as i have just done oil change do you happen to know if I can disconnect the bottom pipe from i/cooler without doing anything else-haynes suggests lockmode/then top hose off then relaese bottom-does it have to be that complicated.Also,i am not likely to do any harm if i pull off pipe and change o ring-am i?

    Regards,once again,
    Mike

    Don't understand why haynes would say that.
    The bottom i/c hose is a bit fiddly because it's so short.
    Release the clip before you pull the pipe off.
