Lack of power

Do you think this may be the cause

I was about to remove the spark plugs when I noticed the split hose.....

Not unless the power loss is when the engine is very hot as then it will be sucking in hot air (underbonnet) rather than cool outside air, other than that the issue is sucking in unfiltered air.

Thanks for your reply.

Anyone got any idea if this is a dealer part only

I have looked on GSF & Euro Car Parts with no luck....

All the best

That looks like the part....though one end is triangularish

The hose is the same as an Activa hose.

Thanks for your replies

Eek

Double the price nearly

There I was thinking £15-£20 would be a reasonable price....

Wonder if I can do a bodge repair......

It's a CT turbo isn't it ?? That would make a tremendous difference to performance as all the boost pressure will be blowing out the split

Not at that point Shane, that section of pipe is prior to the turbo.
