Is something missing?

[Owen Isaac]

Hi all, need some help, I believe there is something missing in the red circled area maybe a bracket or hose to the air intake can anyone help tell me what it is? Thanks in advance.

Yes. The duct that runs from behind the grille to the airbox.

Comparing with the photo James provided, it looks like intake air duct cover and the air guides under it are missing.
I can provide part numbers but it would be better to look them up using the VIN of your car for exact ones, if you don't mind sending it over to me via a private message.

Cheers,

You will have an idea what it looks like in my video, at the airbox removal stage (10:34). @serdar_18fr can provide you with the partnrs

Who ever was in there before has broken the RH bracket (yellow circles should be the same bracket) - so that is probably why they didn't refit the ducting & cover.
You probably also need this piece they broke!

I don't have the missing bracket bit so you think it could be secured another way?

What I gather from the parts catalog drawings, there's no separate replaceable brackets there, underlying air guide looks like it is just screwed onto the radiator carrier which is the big part there. I already provided part numbers of cover & air guides to @Owen Isaac via PM, if he decides to replace the carrier, I can get its part number too.

That would be grest if you could, gives me options then

Oh yes, agree - that is the whole radiator carrier! I would think quite a job to change

I think the air chanel might fit 'ok' without the end screw - it's all quite snug.

Here's the radiator carrier's part number:

5F0805588D Lock carrier with mounting for coolant radiator

I'd also recommend making your own research always before ordering any part, like looking for images and comparing them with what you have etc.

5F0805588D has superseded to 5F0805588F so either of these part numbers should work.
Agree - to always do your own research to make sure parts look correct before spending your own money!
