Hi there

Just replaced the two green boost seals that go on the rubber pipes that connect in to the hard black plastic pipe on the intake system, and it seems to have cured my slight surging issue!
My car has 140k miles on and was weeping a bit of oil from these joins so I worked out that it's part number 3C0145117F that I needed to order two of. They are about £6 each.
When replacing I noticed the pipes were very easy to remove, most likely because the old seals have shrunk and compressed, the new ones made it a bit harder to put on.

Just saying, for the price it might be useful to people to know this.
