Gentlemen,

recently I pruchased a X358 2.7d for my wife and we both love the car!
Of course it had some minor shorcomings in maintenance, but I'm an enthusiastic mechanic doing a lot of stuff myself.
In between the flex pipes between the turbos and the DPF have been replaced, because bothe were broken (as usual).
Also I replaced the timing belt already, so it should be god for the next 50k km maybe.
Today I changed the transmission fluid and remembered that my wife was still complaining about exhaust fumes coming into the cabin.

I have to admit that she's right. The todays inpection delivered the small flex pipe between the left turbo and (I guess) the exhaust gas cooler is broken.
It's easily to spot by all the black stuff around.

I know that the 2.7d engine is not very popular in the US, but does somebody by accident has an advice how to replace that and where to get a spare part?
