Intercooler
VOLVO V50 (545)

Hello, 

Can anyone confirm the correct intercooler pipe replacement  part number (and a recommend supplier eg eBay etc) for a Volvo v50 2.0D (2009).

 Is there more than one of these pipes that can be damaged between the turbo and manifold? 

The long rubber one that connect to the manifold is very oily and I can hear air bleeding out when driving but haven’t pinpointed where it’s coming from exactly – I’m losing power (jerky acceleration and black soot out the exhaust!).  A friend has suggested it could be this long intercooler pipe  (my car mechanic is stacked out and I can’t get it in to him for a few weeks)

I’m no mechanic myself but maybe foolishly think I can have a go at replacing myself unless someone shouts “don’t do it!!” …  is it a nightmare? Does the front grill and bumper need to come off?

Any advice would be very welcome! Thanks
