just had the exact same failure on mine last night....

 

managed to get the AA out and did a bit of a Franken-fix on it with a couple of other size hoses the guy had and a bit of 15mm copper pipe....

 

will be looking at alternatives for the permanent fix.

 

 

Hi Guys, is this one of the heater pipes? What are the chances of me getting it fixed before New Year? Does it require the skills of Jeff or D2 to mend or can I get my local mechanic to fit a replacement part? Where can I get the part from very very quickly? (I really don't want to have to take the train to Newcastle at New Year :scared:)

AnthonyD ( sfsperformance ) on here does all the Rad/water hoses

cheers,

 

already did a PM to him about price, colour and availability.... will get a full set later.

 

the AA guy did atop job at getting me going at the side of the road and today some parts came from ebay and I replaced the broken hose....

 

when all the threads on doing this job with engine still in the car said that it would take a few hours and cost lots of skin I thought it was a bit on an exaggeration......

 

WELL, HOW WRONG WAS I.... lol....

 

I don't think I'e ever been so glad to finish a job on the Zed....

 

really looking forward to doing both the back ones and the two little ones at the front... NOT!!!!!

 

however I have a strange feeling that it might be easer to do them both at the same time (not that I think easier is the right word) :)
