the-lase-rate Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Hi all, I replaced the breather pipe about 18 months ago (part no: ERR7340 , now superseded by LLH500170) and recently I found that it was swollen and kinked and was probably not letting much gas through at all. As a makeshift I cut about 1inch length off the pipe so that it was free again. I think it was a bearmach replacement. Just wondering if this is normal, and would it make sense to get a genuine or silicone pipe this time round? Cheers, Luke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dailysleaze Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 I've had to replace 3 in 5 years - all genuine parts. They crack around the bulging areas top and bottom, then slowly leak. I've tried different levels of tightness on the hose clips but to no avail. Now I just live with it! Yours sounds a bit more extreme so give it a go, but don't expect it to last forever.
