Eric2275 Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Hi All. Just got home after having to be towed 15mls. warning sign on dash, “Turbo boost pressure fault” Had a look and found the top connection of the Intercooler pipe had blown clean off. From what I have read, this seems to be a common occurrance. Advice please on which route to repair, ie washer repair kit, Complete OEM hose or aftermarket hose. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vauxhall Owners Club Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 I would be tempted to go for an aftermarket hose like Samco (Demon Tweeks sell them) as stronger and less likely to bellow on boost or detach from the housing....also a lot cheaper than OE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric2275 Posted April 26, 2023 Author Share Posted April 26, 2023 Thanks, but went for a genuine GM part. I understand your view but thought if I ever have to take it into a Vauxhall garage I can just hear them saying, well you haven’t used GM parts.

Eric2275 Posted April 26, 2023 Author Share Posted April 26, 2023 Job done now anyway, but what a faff getting the bottom clip on right, never mind the job of removing the fog light bezel to get at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
