Discovery Td5 Ace pipe repair

harveymike78 said:

Can anyone help? I have a split in one of the ace pipes on my 2000 Discovery TD5. I have plenty of spare pipe to splice a piece in which has already been done before by a local garage on another pipe.

Can anyone advise on the diameter of the ace pipe so i can then join a new section in with brass couplings?

Cheers

Mind the system is pressurised to 135 bar.

I gave up and replaced the ACE system, with your vehicle being a 2000 model, I think you will be replacing pipes on a regular basis. (Think there is 6 in total).
