We understand you have a problem with your car and people are trying to help.

Starting new threads with different syptoms / clues in each of them is helping nobody.

Please will you keep it in one place.

Take the plastic cover off that is near your dip stick.
Follow the pipes underneath your dipstick that go to the y section on your rocker cover.
There is a very come pipe that splits in between the dipstick and rocker cover.
You can usually hear a leak or at least feel for one around there.

I'm based in macclesfield if you fancy a drive over.

I don't own a lc but i do a octavia vrs (same engine).

sorry im new to this and just trying to get some answers as when i put everything on together dont get answers (or should i say didnt) and now my boot wont open

Hold your boot handle up at 90 degrees with one hand.
Hit the handle downwards sharply with the other hand.

Then try open it.

If its a vacum pipe thats split wouldnt it suck air into the pipe from outside, Therefore if i'm right and you put washing up liquid on it the split will suck the liquid into the engine NOT good

didnt think of that mrs's dad sugested it

nope didnt work doesnt sound like its unlocking is the key part just to stop it from opening with the central locking

found the leak problem its the pipe that comes out of the y shaped pipe towards the front. one of the top cover holders have inbeded themselve into it the pipe code is 06A103213AF

is there any tempory fix?

should i buy a new one ?

or should i buy some hose from forge or somthing?

ive looked for splits but noticed there a load of oil or sumit around the fpr if thats leeking would it cause this problem as forge have siad i sould have my boost gauge connected to that and not my vacume pipe (NO CAPITALS)

Dont mean to be thick but whats the FPR,as i think my dv is conected to a vacume pipe

im thick aswell as the FPR (fuel pressure regulator) is not the part i thought it was the FPR is a small round thing just under the plastic cover ive been told that if your running a splitr valve this is the best place but i dont know about other valves as i fitted mine of a guide for the 007 valve so i pruse that ones ok there but check with others as im only learning and am **** with cars
