Air ntake pipe

Featured Replies

Morning

 Cars been in garage following a crash. Got car back last night. Its been out for a good run but when filling up wiper fluid I noticed part of the air intake pipe is missing . The bit that runs to grill (I think). Will phone garage this morning but in the meantime, is car safe to drive!  

Thanks

Thank you. Just off phone to garage and waiting on manager calling back. I'm assuming its lying about up there and been forgotten 😑.

I don't drive loads of miles a day but left it until i know its not going to damage engine. 

I will have a virtual bet with others that either it wasn't on there or they can't find it

Well, I know nothing about cars and last night when I opened bonnet knew I had never seen what looks like the back of a boiler pipe just resting there  😂 still waiting on garage to phone back. Hubby told me to take no rubbish as its a 5 min fix to them. He did say same as you guys, it's no gonna hurt engine as the filter box is fine , it's just missing the long tube and air will be a bit warmer. Just wanted a bit of advice this morning.  Which I'm thankful for.
