geminitrad Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Without a pic, I'm guessing it's the intercooler pipe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bagi13 Posted October 12, 2014 Author Share Posted October 12, 2014 Yes Rubber pipe attaches to a mental pipe with a braket to the engine casing the onto another rubber pipe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bagi13 Posted October 12, 2014 Author Share Posted October 12, 2014 Just a thought can this be welded in the crack to seal the leak ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supercmaxer Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 The only metal pipe is the one from the back end of the MAF sensor or the one underneath the car from the intercooler that goes to the turbo I think. All other hoses/ pipes are plastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bagi13 Posted October 14, 2014 Author Share Posted October 14, 2014 Hi guys Need advice once again. As ive now confirmed the intercooler pipe has a serious crack on the braket he price of a new one is £137 from ford. My local breakers yard has a round 14 ford focuses in some are 1.6 tdci, will one of the pipes on that engine fit mine ? Only ask at they want a cool £5 for the pipe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geminitrad Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 For £5, I'd buy one and make it fit!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fto dude Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 bagi, did you use a ford faccus one, or did you buy the £137 one? ive found some i ireland at £70 plus VAT and delivery but i dont think i have a crack in our pipe. i wiggled my maf and cleaned it yesterday (after fitting the egr plate) and now it really flies.. fingers crossed.. even the MIL light is off too (not directly as a result of this- but a combination of all the things/ fixes all now working together) so ill keep my fingers crossed now... just gotta sort out this bl00dy fuel light now.. ggrrrrr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bagi13 Posted October 18, 2014 Author Share Posted October 18, 2014 Hi Neither pal i found a cmax that was being broken local to me. But i did investigate the focus and looked the same to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fto dude Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 i see.. so you went for the same pipe but just one without any cracks.. you didnt get the re designed pipe no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bagi13 Posted October 18, 2014 Author Share Posted October 18, 2014 Yes its definitely different bracket and the girth where rubber hoses are is a little smaller. Took a bit of fettling but she running like a dream again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
