Tear in rubber boot -part number?

Post by Stratts » Sun Nov 09, 2014 5:00 pm

I was upgrading my DISA this afternoon when I noticed the intake boot by the TB has a couple of tears in it. Can anyone please confirm the part number, I can't match the part wine diagram on RealOEM and don't want to get it wrong when ordering a replacement.

I've not had any lights or issues with the car, except for a ridiculously poor fuel consumption but I figured this was part and parcel of owing a 3l car. Perhaps this was the reason?
