Clip on vacuum hose to charge pipe broke

Dynamic_m235 · 04-01-2018, 05:13 PM

The black clip that connects the vacuum hose to my charge pipe snapped. Bmw charges $189 to fix it but I have a feeling if I can order the new hose I can get it done somewhere else a lot cheaper. Does anybody know a website that sells these hoses?

Are you looking for the stock hose or aftermarket? There are lots of places that sell the stock hose. It's super easy to install yourself if it's the one I'm thinking of. If you could take a picture that would help also.

Just a stock one, didn’t even know there are aftermarket ones to be honest. And I’m not
Sure how to upload pictures from my iPhone on here, do you know how to do that?

When you reply there is a paper clip button.

That worked. That should only cost you a few bucks and some time to replace yourself.

You can go to realoem and find the part number. Then search that part number and find the part. It probably costs less than $20. The stealership is charging you for about an hour of billed time. You do the math.

I busted that stupid clip too. Not as badly as yours though. Mine is still holding fine, but I may look into replacing it
