I will try it again tonight on my way home but I'm sure it must have thawed out by now. I'm dreading taking bits and bobs apart to find the damn thing!
I just hope it isn't deep and burried somewhere so I have to remove loads of trim etc
Will wait until Saturday anyway as its too dark by the time I get home at the moment. I am going to have a go a fitting a boost gauge too!
id be more worried if it was in the boot lid, if it is then it will be dripping onto the boot actuator or central clocking mechanism = not good at all
When I got home tonight, I gave it a good blast with the washer jet and then quickly ran to the boot to check if anything was leaking out of the boot lock etc.... no water to speak of so I think it might be in the engine bay!
Fixed rear washer and another mod!
Finally got round to fixing my rear washer jet today! The break was in the engine bay, so I removed the airbox and found it lurking right in the depths under the ECU. Bit of a git to fix, the join doesn't seem to be the best anyway so I'm not surprised it popped off! Rerouted the pipe a bit so it was easier to get to and taped it up so it shouldn't happen there again! All put back to normal now!
Along a different line, when the airbox was out, I removed the trumpet thingey in the top bit of the box and drilled some holes on the cold side of the bottom half of the airbox ![[B)]](/forums/styles/seatcupra/oldforumsmileys/shades.gif "Cool [B)]")
Just about to take it for a test drive to see if there is any difference...

Didn't you read it... I said engine bay dude!
Yea, I know mate. But I said it ALSO split in the boot.
First one was in the boot then the second one was in engine bay under ECU, just like you

Sorry! That is bad luck, going in both places. Mine seems to be fine now! Fingers crossed...
Airbox mods
Top of airbox with no trumpet thingey
Trumpet removed on green filter
Wing side of lower part of airbox
Battery side of lower part of airbox
Airbox removed to get to split washer pipe
This is where the popped off pipe was... nice and easy to get to!

I was surprised actually.
It makes quite a difference at tick-over and low revs (a bit throatier I guess) Can't really tell the difference at high revs. Seems to pick up revs and speed quicker too in first and second but I could just be imagining it! 
bah wish id of seen this earlier mine came off just before new year and the stealers charged me 40 odd quid
I will give anything a go if I think I can have half a chance of doing it! I may have saved myself some money but I have now got cuts on my hands and a bad back. And I swore a lot doing it! The join seemed crap too... it seems there are loads of people on here that have had it go there!
ok then all in all it doesnt sound that bad payin the 40 quid
I'm glad I did it now but £40 doesn't sound too bad! Could be £40 towards some more mods though...
