    Heh Those lines are real wankers. Couldn't figure out why it was running like crap until i saw it broke near that valve there. Replaced that line with flexi vacuum line and still had the problem. It turns out it broke at the next part and broke again when i replaced that. Stupid hard lines. How much did that cost to get fixed?

    They seem to crack with regularity - odds are that if one end is cracked the other one soon will be. Cost me $160 for the two hoses from the dealer as I couldn't source them elsewhere - ie. the complete two hose/valve assembly you see out of focus in the front and the one that's in focus clipped to the firewall - $86.45 each but I talked them to $80
