Xu Oil Pipe?

Recommended Posts

rapide

Can anyone help? I've done a search a found a diagram but it doesn't look the same somehow!

 

I've traced an oil leak to a hole in one of the pipes which runs from the bottom of the block to the oil cooler (sorry if that doesnt make sense). Its the closest one to the radiator and has rubbed on a clip causing the hole.

 

Looked on eurocar parts and they only describe one lower oil pipe and one breather. Plus they're not instock.

 

Can anyone tell me which oil pipe is it and any ideas where i can get a replacement?

 

Cheers :)

If so you can buy a replacement from a Peugeot dealer, from a hydraulics place or (shameless plug) I have what you see in the picture for sale. The ones in the picture have only done around 3K miles as I had the same issue as you. PM me if you are interested.

My 1992 1.9 GTi had a water-oil heat exchanger on it, which i believe is standard for that year. The picture above is the air-oil cooler fitted to earlier cars.

 

Just in case you go into a dealer to get new bits.
