This part is an air intake hose, designed to channel clean air from the air filter assembly into the engine's intake manifold. It is constructed from durable, heat-resistant rubber to withstand engine bay temperatures and maintain its shape under vacuum, unlike a cracked or collapsed hose. Operators may notice a loss of engine power, increased exhaust smoke, or a whistling noise from the engine bay if this hose is compromised.
Always verify with serial number before ordering.

Never run an engine without a filter — even briefly causes abrasive damage. Pre-fill fuel filters with clean fuel before fitting to reduce prime time. Replace O-rings on filter housings every second service. Record change dates on filter housing.
Always consult the OEM service manual for model-specific torque values and procedures. WhatsApp our technical team if you need fitment guidance.
A cracked or loose air intake hose will first manifest as a noticeable reduction in engine performance and possibly a whistling sound. If ignored, the engine may start to run rough, consume more fuel, and produce excessive black smoke due to unmetered air entering the system. Continued use with a faulty hose can lead to premature wear on internal engine components.
Ensure the connection points on both the air filter housing and the engine intake are completely clean before fitting the new hose. Do not force the hose onto the fittings; it should slide on smoothly if aligned correctly.
Check the air filter element and the turbocharger intake pipe for any signs of damage or blockage when replacing the air intake hose.
