Carbonio Intake Issues

(1/2) > >>

x5pea:

Ive got one fitted to my mk5, however the flexi pipe keeps coming away from engine cover anyone else had this issue ?

It just seems too short, I thought about spacing it away where it screws into the slam panel anyone else had this issue?




RedRobin:
....

It's quite a common issue though I've never had the problem myself - I don't know if having a (more expensive) Carbonio original is why.

Can't help you with the detail fixit but I'm sure someone will be along soon to post how. IIRC, it's a simple fix.

....Yes. The original Carbonio product and a replica sold mostly via eBay. The replica is identical according to the naked eye and all posted reports I've ever read. The original comes with a Carbonio badge.

I'll do a quick Search on this site and post more if I find something......Back soon!

^^^^
Nothing about the issue found when I Searched "Carbonio". Am sure someone will post you a fix. Plenty people here have the 'replica' version.

VC:
i will have a look at the fitment on the EOS later for you mate, everything fits snug as a bug on it.
