Yeah found the hose this morning and mine is split. Ive replaced the hose coming off the inlet but after the wee valve I cant get the hose off to replace it

so is that where we should be looking for the split? around the green nipple?

 

[acidstrato]

yes, BUT PLEASE PEOPLE chill out and relax...this recall was years ago, its likely only a few actually require it

its like a nation wide panic lol

Got my car back this afternoon from Seat in Wimbledon. Took it there this morning and the guy in a suit told me it would take about 30mins to change the break servo pipe. So waited about in the office for ten mins then got bored. Went for a walk and what do i see at the lights? My car being driven by a 20year old mechanic. The lights changed green and he burend away off the lights at some speed! Got back to the garage and my car was still not there. 15mins later the guy brings the car back. Told the guy how it was being driven and he said some bull sh*t about them needing to test the breaks hard?! I looked at my average mpg and it had gone down from 29mpg to 28.2!! This little doosh bag and probably been ragging the tits off it. I kicked up a right stir and managed to get it washed inside and out!! Still not happy about it though and i can safley say i wont be taking it back there again for anything!!

that is shocking! i always check my mileage before and after i take my car somewhere to make sure that it hasn't been taken for a very long drive. i'd hate to see my car been driven hard by someone else!

 

[cupramillo]

I know, feel totally violated! I should have ask for a free service or something. Fingers crossed that little sh*t gets a right bollacking by his boss. Just couldnt believe my eyes when i saw him ragging it away from the lights!
