Teamy, if you are struggling to get a pipe for your car you might look into the Pirtek service centres, they repair hydraulic pipes, if not those guys then maybe look for a smaller independent hydraulic repair shop.

Hmm...

Sorry mate, this is the pipe that goes between the airbox and the intake? If so, this one is no good - should actually bin it.

How about the PAS pipe Chaz?

Ive got one of the long hydraulic pipes that goes from I think the powersteering pump to the res - is this the one you need?

Where you based? Im going down to Basingstoke tomorrow and could meet / drop it off if you were along the way ...

That's very kind of you to offer! I'll double check when my wife gets home, but if you stand in front of the car it comes off the back of the pump and disappears down the front of the engine (I think!)

[Chaz]

Just seen, you are in Woking, ironically where I bought my current car a week ago ....

So, we will be in Basingstoke, I think I know the pipe - its fairly long? Ill bring what I can and you can take what you want. Is there anything else you are looking for that I might have?

Sounds like it, the haynes is in the boot of the car and Emma isn't back yet but I will double check. I'll pm you my mobile no, what sort of time do you reckon you'll be getting there? I can't think of any other bits off hand. You are a gent sir!

[Chaz]

Planning on being down around lunchtime (ish) and down for the day. Sleeping over in Oxford - so anytime really from then. I will be with the family, so ideal if you could travel to me? Ill reply to your PM with my number and details. Plus, my new car sucks juice, youll see what it is tomorrow ;p

Ill need to go do some digging in the garage tonight. Let me know via text or phone if theres anything else you would want me to bring - Lots of other small bits, pipes etc. If theres space, ill bring it.

If you can show me a pic of sorts to be sure it will be helpful. I dont want to bring the wrong part and waste your time ....

[teamster1975]

That's perfect
My eldest son is at a birthday party early afternoon so I'll be at home looking after the youngest until they're back. Thanks very much!

Edit: You beat me to it; I'll get a photo up on here as soon as she gets back.

[Chaz]

What time will you be able to travel? We should be there into the early evening ...

[teamster1975]

Well in fact my wife has just got back; she says that the party is 3-5 so I would probably head over before then depending on what time you arrive. Failing that if I came over after she got back it would be around 6.

[Chaz]

Both should be ok - we are hoping to be down by around lunchtime - pending how the morning (and traffic goes).

[teamster1975]

Here it is, goes down the front of the engine I assume to the steering rack.
Also a daft question; you wouldn't happen to have any spare wheel nuts would you? I need two to replace butchered locking wheel nuts.
Thanks mate!

[steve_earwig]

Is that the main feed that goes all the way under the clutch to the rack?

ooh looky, early engine top mount
