2007 1.8 tdci. Car went into limp mode today and I think I could hear some low hissing. After engine off for a bit it went back out of engine system failure, but when I popped the bonnet I noticed the pictured small hose has failed. Looks like it goes into the EGR? Would appreciate confirmation if that’s what’s gone, and whether it’s an easy part to source and swap myself? Cheers!

Update: it looks like it’s coming from the top pipe through the bulkhead

I had this a few weeks ago, used a wire bridge to join the 2 cables, left it plugged in, not had any alarm alerts for weeks now

Not sure on that one. Must be front right corner from the diagram. Checked a few engines for sale on eBay but that pipe is always missing on there.

Got a weird clonking sound when I first accelerate. Most noticeable from 2nd to 3rd to 4th but not down the gearbox. Its sounds like it's on the driver side front. Wheel area I have whipped the wheel off to see what it could be, nothing lose that I can detect before I start stripping it down everything is good and tight, no play in the brakes, good level of wear left on the discs and pads, sliders are all secure and not moving (Like the ones on my mervia are) Apart from the drive shaft. If I grab it and push/pull towards and from the gear box there is a click sound at the wheel end. The car has recently has a bearing on the wheel, and some fool has put the inner driveshaft gator on with a ***** zip tie..... The noise is also there if I manually twist the drive shaft I'm suspecting this is the fault, or maybe the inner steering arm. Is on a Focus 2.5 1.6s (Av11 NJJ) What are your thoughts, and where should I get a replacement driveshaft from if it is that. If I do the driveshaft I will likely swap the drop links at the same time.

Where does the pipe 6a715 go to on the engine?

Thank you Eric Bloodaxe. Yes, I think from what I have read it seems very reasonable for the money. As a side I noticed my quote had my estimated my milage at 30k. However it is just at 20k. When I revised the milage on the quote it adjusted to £156. Funny that when I booked my car in for service a few weeks ago they knew my exact milage without asking from the Ford Pass App. 😆

Bought used kuga calipers for 300mm upgrade. Painted black all wheel calipers. So now front Ate powerdisc (grooved). Brembo xtra pads. (Plus had already installed last time Braided Brake Lines/Hoses) Thank you for supporting and the information.

if you upload your video to youtube then copy the link and paste it on here.

Thanks Eric.. appreciate your reply. I have attached some videos. When in neutral there is no rattle. It’s only when in gear and driving so maybe a gearbox/ transmission issue?. Hopefully from the videos you can hear the noise and provide feedback .. Unfortunately I cannot get the videos across due to size . Could I email / WhatsApp thanks
