Heat Exchangers

Post by Sugar Spun Sisters »

My T25 autosleeper has a completely rotted o/s heat exchanger. I've a 1.9 DG watercoold engine. 'm a bit confused as I didn't think water cooled engines had these?
Does anyone know where I could get the exhaust system checked out/fixed?..Newcastle Upon Tyne area. Thanks.

Hi
It isnt a "heat exchanger" its the warm air take off for the air intake.. dont worry about it.. lots of vans on here run quite happily without it, so remove the flexi tubes and join the 2 ports on the air intake pipework together with a short length.. niether of my 2 vans have this warm air intake on them and run happily even in the depths of winter..
