Xuma,
Standard problem on the 300Tdi (one of the very few!) is that hose!
I was out in the sticks when I blew one and no spare left. I ended up putting a similar looking one from a Massey Ferguson tractor in and that lasted about a 100 000km!
Unfortunately 300Tdi's like a bit of cool-down time after a long hot stretch and 2 to 3 minutes of idling feels like an age...
