#1: Part name, maybe oil breather? Author: danr, Location: SurreyPosted: Mon Dec 27, 2010 3:30 pm ---- Hi all and merry xmas
I've managed to get to the bottom of why the car wasn't starting, there was a wiring issue at the Coil pack! Anyway... whilst we were fixing this I noticed there was a crack in a pipe which I need identifying.
I've got a feeling that this may be the oil breather pipe but can anyone confirm this?
It's cracked near the coil pack so would I have to replace the whole thing or just the part from the "y" backwards?
Cheers

It had a small amount of oil residue in it (when I snapped it off... whoops) but wanted to check before I phoned Peugeot and bought a new engine by accident hahaha

That's what I did, you just need to cut the existing tubing off the T piece. Will cost less than £10. I bet that hose costs a few quid from the dealer.

#8: Re: Part name, maybe oil breather? Author: danr, Location: SurreyPosted: Tue Dec 28, 2010 11:07 am ---- £24 for a bit of tubing? They've got more chance of finding rocking horse s**t than me paying that.
I'll get some tubing as advised... cheers
