FML... Help!!!

I have been asking questions on excessive smoke and been looking into getting the eyes blanked and while at work on nights I have just taken a look under the plastic casing... Two things really has this already been blanked and two do you think this slit in th hose could be causing the smoke???

Slit in the hose is almost guaranteed to be causing the smoke.

That's a new one. Mr. Green

Yep, agree with angelfire, your smoke is due to the split hose. Thumbs Up

That side has been, yes. Presumably the other side is the same? Question

You may want to ensure the butterfly has been removed from the housing. Thumbs Up

Where would be the best place to buy a new hose? and are they easy to replace?

Cheap option: http://www.advancedfactors.co.uk/pnh500025...5018-p.asp

I would, however, suggest you invest in a silicone one, like this set, for example: http://www.advancedfactors.co.uk/ba2341-bl...6726-p.asp

The main one (the one in the picture) is very easy - just a jubilee clip at either end. The lower end is accessed via a panel at the bottom of the wheel arch (4 plastic rivets).

Im happy to spend the money as i know with cars like this what you spend is what you get but would it make a noticeable difference?

And thanks for the advice.

I also now have a EGR kit on its way which i obviously dont need now any suggestions to get rid of it? Sell on here or try ebay?

Is it also worth doing the other hoses that are included in this set?
