defender 2.2 turbo hose

[portafilter]

Hi All just had my 2012 110 back from the dealer for the oil pump recall, also had the service bulletin for difficult shifting done as well. i didnt get much of a chance to enjoy it because the day after i picked it up i popped a turbo hose, the little right angled one that leads up into the throttle body, somewhere near the EGR valve.
1 pretty sure this is a coincidence?
2 has anyone else done this?
3 also found a bit of wear on the outlet side of the intercooler where it rubs on the radiator hose so im going to replace that as well. they really are paper thin hoses.

PS the hole is about 5-10 mm in diameter and really screams under max boost.

I got exactly the same work done to my MY2012 90. It took three mentions about the difficult shifting with MLR while it was still under warranty before they finally put the bushes in when they did the oil pump even though it is now out of warranty. Just have to persevere I suppose ...:D

It has improved cold changes a little but still changes much easier better once warmed up.
