300tdi trans pipe

[lando]

Anyone know anywhere in east melb or west gippsland that would have a trans cooler pipe for a 300tdi open today tomorrow or Monday? The one with temp switch in it **** itself on me this morn and I'm a long way from home at in laws.

Where did it fail mate, in the flexible hose or metal pipe ?

[lando]

The steel pipe under the crimp. Would cut it off and use a normal piece of hose double clamped for a temp fix but I have very minimal tools here!

[loanrangie]

All i can suggest is somewhere like AMV Ringwood or Ritter in Burwood or try Pirtek/ Enzed for some hose and clamps to get you going again - even Repco and Autobarn .

Where are you ? I'm in West Gippsland and my 300 Tdi manual is awaiting a head so I guess none of my bits would help you out. You're welcome to use my tools etc if thats any help. PM me if you like.

Deano :)

PS. Would the pipe be the same on a 1988 RRC ? If so no.1 son (who is also on this forum) may lend it to you to get out of trouble as his RRC (V8 auto) is also off the road for a bit of TLC.

Cheers fellas for you help I've patched it up temporarily and hasn't leaked yet after a few drives gonna take ferry home so I'm not stuck on that west gate roadworks!
Thanks again
