macp Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 A week into ownership its thrown up the EML light out of the blue.Car is running ok though except I notice when starting from cold just for less than a minute it seems to run rough not really bad but you can feel it in the car. I guess it could be an airleak. Ah well feckit ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macp Posted October 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 Well thanks to a post by mattkav I have found a split in the top inlet boot (see below) so im fairly certain this is what is causing the EML warning light. Hope you dont mind me using your pic mattkav but the split in mine is identical to yours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macp Posted October 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 Nice easy fix The top one looks easy enough to do but im wondering if to change the bottom boot which may not be so easy ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonesie Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 The good news is I have just replaced both boots on mine for £25.80 including vat. The bad news is the clips on the lower boot are a swine to get to, the heads on them face down and back, flip them so they are accessible from the top when you fit the new bits. macp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks could you let me have a link to where you bought them or are they OEM parts only ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonesie Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 Main dealers only, I doubt that any after market parts exist with the genuine ones being that price and available next day. macp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
