Natasha 1 Posted May 18, 2006 A water pipe has just blown on my 205 mi16 and Peugeot say its no longer available! The pipe I desperately need to get hold of is the pipe that goes from the back of the thermostat housing (behind power steering pump), turns a corner and joins the pipe that runs across the back of the head. Anybody got any bright ideas of where I can get hold of this one? Thanks in advance. Natasha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Natasha 1 Posted May 18, 2006 Can't get hold of them Anyone else suggest where I can get hold of this pipe? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan 99 Posted May 18, 2006 I had to buy one of these a couple of months ago. The parts guy told me it was the last one left. I had to wait ages too. What about making one by cutting the angles from other hoses and joining them together, or 2 samco elbows? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
inferno 1 Posted May 18, 2006 do u mean the metel pipes? if so ive got some actually... ive got the rubber ones i think u mean too infact ive got pretty much every pipe on the mi16... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pug_ham 244 3 Cars Posted May 18, 2006 Take it off completely & plumb the engine in as if it was an 8v. Or try Citroen, they'll probably want a chassis number though. Graham. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil H 16 Posted May 18, 2006 Citreon get their parts orders from Tile Hill aswell as Peugeot, because I tried as the part number was the same and yes it's now no longer available. SeanT got hold of one from www.peugeotparts.co.uk I think, but best ask him to be sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Miles 331 1 Cars Posted May 18, 2006 Ditch it as there's the other 2 pipes which are getting hard to buy as well, Makes the engine bay look neater as well. But I;ve got a few of these if needed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KRISKARRERA 2 1 Cars Posted May 19, 2006 Where's it split? Right next to the jubilee clip? Mine did that and I just cut the bad bit off and stuck it back on. That was yonks ago and it's been ok ever since. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I;ve got a few of these if needed Whats the best way to plumb these then. Any diagrams? Generally I think Peugeot cooling and breather systems are mad & messy Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alan_M 66 1 Cars Posted May 20, 2006 If i'm right, its the metal pipe that runs behind the head you are talking about which the rubber elbows feed. All this is is a bypass for the heater matrix, and can be removed quite easily. You can either get to blanking rubbers and swop over with the pipe connections or AFAIK blank off the stat end with a blanking plug and use 8v distribution pipe on the block. The 8v has 2 outlets compared to the 3 on the Mi16. The pipe really hacked me off when I was having problems with my old manifold. It seriously reduces access!

Guest SeanT Posted May 20, 2006 I used these to get parts that Peugeot dont stock anymore, If its the rubber pipe that links the two metal pipe I got one about 2 weeks ago from here.... http://www.peugeotparts.co.uk/ Sean A water pipe has just blown on my 205 mi16 and Peugeot say its no longer available!
