Replacing the Pass Side AIR Sys Hose

**T/Aboo** · 10-05-2007, 07:47 AM

Can anyone offer any advice on accessing and replacing the passenger side AIR system hose? THis is the rubber hose that runs from the control valve at the rear of the engine, to the check valve. I can hardly even see where the control valve is, much less access it to remove the hose. The thought of getting a new hose back there isn't even funny.

Any comments from someone who has actually accomplished this would be helpful.

just remove the whole system and get the code turned off

Thanks Great White. One question though, if you remove the A.I.R. system wouldn't the codes continue?

they would, but its no big deal, just a light, but if your going to get the car tuned anytime soon, thye can shut it off for free while there tunning it.

but honestly just rip alll that out and you might get charge a lil for a tuner to delete the code. if thats all you want done.

I'd rip it all out too.

SOME NOOBE paid for a new air system ro be replaced and paid over 500, then ripped it out months later.

thats how useless that air is.

soo dont make that same mistake, and with headers it looks a lot cleaner. hope this helps

Thanks for the help guys!! I'd like to go the header route eventually, so ditching the AIR system sounds like the solution.
Thanks again for the input!
