1.5 dci plastic intercooler section

Postby Alex801 » Mon Mar 20, 2017 8:50 pm

Hi all. Quick question. Most of the viable intercooler pipeING on the car is steel or rubber but there is a section that goes over the top of engine and joins onto the throttle body or shudder thing lol so we're this plastic piece joins the metal body there is a jubilee clip holding it on. My question is. Should there be a rubber inside the plastic section to make an air tight seal against the metal throttle body? Mine doesn't have a sealing ring there and iv got an oil weep there

Thanks for any replies

That was my suspicion thanks for confirming il have to try and buy one but God knows were il find one. Cars been in and out of garage for work lately that pipe has been off a couple of times I guess it ended up being swept up of garage floor. If there easy to source il buy one otherwise il take it back for them to buy one lol
