What and where

Having a look around the engine as brother said check the breather pipe for blockage and i found this. I can't find or see where this goes.

Any clues???

Cheers Dave

i'd say either the inlet manifold or off the vac tree, i've circled both in the pic for you to check

Off the inlet manifold mate the one on the left as you look at the pic

Why is your dipstick cable tied in?..

For some reason since i've boost the turbo up its started leaking oil from the dipstick, thought it might stop it untill i find something to keep it in there.

The pipe came from the between the inlet manifold pipes but i can't see where from. I gave the engine a little rev and no blowing or sucking air( don't be rude, lol) so not sure. I'll have another look when the car comes back. The GF has it.

It looks like the rubber elbow on the pcv system, the bit which attaches to the intake pipe near the turbo inlet or the elbow which fits onto the inlet manifold

Number 10 or number 13 on this diagram

If it's the far left one,go armed with lots of patience........oh and make sure your engine is cool,something which you may lose!!!

From the look of the large end on the elbow, it looks like the one from the turbo end

Dave have you got a zoomed out pic so that we can see where the rest of the pipe goes?

The piping seems to be wrapped up in rubber and goes underneath the manifold and out the right hand side. I'll go and take some more pics of it.

Sounding like the nightmare one...........oh bugger!!

If it's No. 13. where does it go. Manifold?? Posted pic.

Goes into PCV on the far left (timing side) of the block and it's a little b*****d. It's behind the inlet fanimold and as said,takes a lot of patience. Do a search on here and you'll find a detailed how to that I posted some weeks ago. Securing it is the difficulty. I'll try and find that thread if you need it. HTH.

i've posted & circled it in the pic in my first post mate, but looking at your second pic i can just make out what looks like the rubber elbow sticking out, so my guess would be either the air intake by the turbo, or the vac tree (other one circled in my pic)

It has to go along underneath the manifold, to the far left end of the manifold where there should be a port to push it onto. Its right by the thermostat and really hard to get to. With that pipe off, there will be air getting in after the MAF.
