Hi everyone, haven't been able to drive for a while, noticed this liquid when I started up. It's coming from the part I've pointed to. Does anyone know what it is and if it's a big job? Has mot next week so trying to get sorted before then! Any help really appreciated.
Highly likely it is a perished leak off pipe, pull it off and you will most probably find cracked rubber under the braid.
Easy replacing them all - just push on.
It is diesel on the injector. As Oldie said above, most probably the leak-off hose leaks.
the hose is 3,5x2mm by OE, but 3.2mm ID is the common size https://brickwerks.co.uk/product/fuel-h ... e-3-2mm-2/
you need 130mm long pieces between injectors and 170mm between the last injector and the pump
If not that then it might be a loosened high pressure pipe or the injector itself.
