Post by: panther on 07 August 2007, 20:52:18

More than likely a vac pipe, check to see if it is connected as it goes through bulkhead ( by heater hoses ) and check the rest of the system in engine bay for damage

Where it gpes through the bulkhead will that be next to the heater matrix pipes and as far as i can see there is nothing damage in the engine bay bit
