A bit random but i was filling up the screen wash today and somehow Caught one of the small black push fit hoses which connects to some sort of black plastic vessel under the bonnet (front far left 2 of side by side) some air seemed to come out any one knows what this is? Does it matter now its reconnected or is the pressure in it factory set?

Is it a little one? If it's the turbo line then it's no problem...it'll make a little pssssshhh. It's about 1/8" around and is made of black plastic...?

Nope - Just reconnect it. It is probably just one of the turbo boost solenoid hoses.

What? How can you possibly get the boost solenoid lines caught underneath the bonnet? I'm not sure what those hoses are on the left side, but they are not the boost solenoid vacuum lines.
