I was wondering if anyone can help me i have an oil leak coming from a pipe going from my rocker cover to what i believe is the turbo. The pipe runs from the right hand side of the rocker and bends back under the engine. I am trying to order the new pipe but i cant get the part as when i describe the part they dont know where im referring to. Any help would be appreciated.

PVC tube is the only thing going from the side of the valve cover to just before the turbo intake, but it doesn't run back under the engine. The older THP150s had a really cheap seal where it came out of the valve cover that are prone to seep oil out over the top of the engine. Think they may have changed that setup in later cars. Out the back of the valve cover there is another PVC line that does go back under parts of the engine. That line uses an o-ring at the valve cover connection. have not seen one of those start leaking yet.Originally posted by cyclone
It is in the handbook. Satisfied.

Cyclone has the right answer for you on this. Check in with your dealer because there was a fix for this on the older cars....I should never have doubted the Lord of Bacon!!

Thanks cyclone for your help. The garage who carried out the inspection didn't know the parts name and didn't seemed to clued up on the part and they contacted citroen who said it came in a set and I would have to pay £140 even though I only needed one part from this set. So I was trying to find it elsewhere to find a better deal or the part just by itself. But what your saying sounds exactly right thanks for your helpLast edited by thorney; 18-03-2015, 15:22.
