Regarding the colored vacuum line bundle that plug into the intake and EGR accessories on the engine, does anyone know if this part is still available from the dealer? I could call and ask, but maybe someone has some info here that would be beneficial. My hoses are very brittle and I'm thinking that I am going to have to probably buy the universal black vacuum hose and start jerry rigging it together. I only have 3 hoses that have cracked, but I'd like to just replace the whole bundle outright.

To those that have cracked vacuum hoses, what did you do?

 

Change them out with rubber.

 

X2 on the above.

 

I took the leap and went 100% rubber and I wish I had done it much earlier. That's the only way to go. It runs so much better. I am trying to get there with all of the repairs and upgrades.
