    Flexi turbo pipe under MAF sensor & engine cover

    Whilst changing the thermostat (what a pain in the rectum that was) I found that the flexi pipe underneath the MAF sensor (goes from the Y pipe to the solid plastic pipe near the transmission filter) had worn through on one end so am looking for a replacement, I'm also after an engine cover as mine never had 1 fitted when I bought it.

    I anyone has either or both of these, please PM me, could do with these before Christmas so am happy to pay 1st class delivery.

    Thanks

    Pretty sure it is, theres a Y shaped pipe that comes out from the tb, the pipe I'm after is goes from to the lower of the 2 junctions to the rigid plastic pipe that goes under the thermostat housing and round the transmission filter on the auto box.

    Am I making sense???? (that would be a first)

    Yes. It's called "front turbo intake pipe". It's rubber, with boost selenoid bleed inlet. I need search my loft, maybe one is laying somewhere.
