I have a rather large split/crack in the rubber hose between my air box & alloy intake pipe that sits across my engine (1HZ). Anyone know the best way to fix this? I was thinking about sikaflex but wanted to
check if someone has had success with it first.
Cheers
Josh

Considering this..." ironJosh

....one could suggest that as "split/cracks" don't appear overnight whilst parked the car has already been driven, perhaps for some time with said "split/crack" in place. Maybe any damage that may be done has already been done?
