Ok - my only other problem (honest!)...is that when fixing my MAFAM to resolve problem A...I found that there was a small abrasion hole in the flexible black pipe which is at the front (closest to the front of the car that is). This pipe goes from the front left-middle of the car to the right and then back into the air filter. This also causes a lovely diesel smell when the engine is running and the cabin vents open.

The abrasion was found to be caused because the pipe sits on top of a screw - talk about bad layout. Where's the easiest place to get a replacement - and (assuming I have some competency) could I fit this myself?

Thanks in advance

Tim.

At £1.00 it's a steal.

Hope it's the one. - fitting is ok if the front clip is located so you can undo it :rolleyes:

Spot on Rich. I've just bid on it (think I put in a high bid of £53 rather than £5.3 but hey...i'm the only bidder!).

Thanks for this. Wow - the Internet really does work!
