Driving Home, Turned into the road to cover the last couple of miles, Nice long Straight & then a hard sweeping right ... 2nd gear 4500 Rpm, 3rd 4500 Rpm, 4th 4500 Rpm ... Just start to back off to change gear & BANG.. Feck.. :(

No Power what so ever, But still running.. After all the recent Turbo failures on here too i thought .. Oh No not my Turn ...... Managed to coast the rest of the way fearing the worst as i have removed all of the Vag Boost hose connectors apart from the one directly off the turbo & this one is well secured ....

So limps onto the drive & had a shufty ...... Fortunately for me the other end of the samco pipe off the turbo had blown off... Panic over

So i brought out the Big Boys The Mikalor clamps

Lets see how long this one stays on

Nearly all my boost clips are held on with those kinds of clamps. Yet to have a boost hose pop despite 2.2 bar of boost pressure.

Thats good news then The Jubilees are good but they just don't have the clamping pressure of the Mikalors .... Plus they save you the cost of a clean pair of Pants
