intake nipple broken
finally after doing a smoke test ive found the issue causing my maf & 02 sensor code lighting up. On the intake pipe between maf & turbo theres a plastic nipple on top that has a hose running from it. Looks like previous owner has broke it and had glued it back on but its off again. The angle he broke it is hard enough to try reglue and stay sealed.
Anyone any idea how I fix this? Its the nipple on top over to right beside the clamp. Its not even broke clean at the bottom.

Had this problem myself in the past. To fix this properly use araldite, take your time and make sure the application area is nice and clean before using. Use plenty and build it up around both parts.

I think its part of the intake pipe so I need to replace the whole intake pipe. There is one closer to the maf with similar size can I just tee the pipe off that and block up the hole on the intake?
