Please can someone advise how difficult it is to replace the vaccume hoses attached to the turbo actuators on my 996tt. I can see the lower connection but how about the other ends?
Do these go brittle and cause any problems? They just look old and a bit tired.
Is there a sutable replacment or upgrade or should I just order OEM replacements.

Thanks guys

The hoses to the actuators come from the boost control valve, I believe it's the connection underneath the valve which is then split into two with a t-piece further along; one to each actuator. Tbh, not really worth faffing around with unless its broken. When I replaced my turbos all I did was take a few mm off the end of each hose so I had a nice fresh unstretched bit of rubber to attach to the new actuators.
