only £1.54 here Mikey...


That looks like an item it would be sensible to keep in one's emergencies box. What diameter would be required?


Some guys do just that carrying 2 short lengths and a couple of 6mm and 8mm connectors.

Well, I think that they are the sizes… not thought about it for a while!


Correct. 6mm for all pipes to valve blocks and air springs. 8mm on the big pipe to the compressor

I would keep at least 2x 6mm straight connectors, and around 1m of 6mm air pipe Thumbs Up My D3 Build Thread

Scotland 2016 Discovery 4 3.0 SDV6 Landmark LE Auto Santorini BlackDiscovery 4

Got the car back last night,all fixed and ready to go.

Turns out that the FBH exhaust had indeed cracked and the hot gases had melted the Air pipe.

So the £1.54 fix would just have melted again Whistle

New FBH exhaust and new air pipe fitted and AA picking up the tab Thumbs Up




Packing up and going home now.
