Hi All,

The pipe which the arrow is pointing to in the pic below keeps coming loose at the connection where I have circled. I believe that the point which clicks under the sir clip has just worn away, which is why it keeps coming off. Just wondering if anyone has a solution to this, or whether I need to buy a whole new pipe?

Also is it normal for oil to get into this pipe, as I have noticed oil has covered the brake fluid resevoir below since i have had this problem. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

It is normal for there to be some oil in tdi boost pipes if it keeps popping off change the pipe and clip should sort it
 
Thanks for the quick reply, thought that would be the easiest solution. Do you know the best place to source one as i dont think there is a need to buy a new one.
 
It's best to buy new from tps every time they blow off it damages the retaining nipples see it a lot at work pal
