When you see how much “crud” has built up inside, you will want to remove it to clean it out.

HI Keith Moon, Sorry for the delay in answering, been off driving the "Beast" around Europe. Yes, must remove the air intake 'donut' which is not complicated. Just a lot of little bolts. Be careful with the plastic hoses and electric connectors. It will give you a good opportunity to clean the muck inside. Brake cleaner and Mineral spirits work wonders. Did mine in under 3 hours taking my time. All the best RR HSE TDV8 4.4 2012 Jaguar S type 3.6l Jaguar XJ8 Jaguar X type 3l Triumph TR6 1976 - Jeep CJ7 1976 |

thanks - I’ve got the cleaned donut back in situ but struggling a bit to slide the new silicone hoses from the donut across to make the seal - are there any tips on how best to do this? cheers |

Too tight /small or too much friction? Try some silicone spray or grease? 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322) |
