About Air Hoses

The Vauxhall air hose is a simple yet crucial part of the car's air intake system. It allows air to pass into the Vauxhall air filter box which then filters the air before it reaches the car's engine.

The Vauxhall air hose is usually found in the plastic housing between the engine and the air filter. It is attached to the Vauxhall air flow sensor which is attached to the Vauxhall air filter box.

It is imperative that the engine is supplied with the correct amount of clean, filtered air. Air needs to be as clean as possible before it mixes with the fuel and burns in the cylinders of the engine. The Vauxhall air hose plays a part in this process by allowing the air to enter the car's air intake system, enabling it to be filtered, which improves the overall performance of the engine, enabling it to work as efficiently as possible.

The air hose is made of plastic and can wear down over time and can also crack and split, which allows dirt and other unwanted debris to enter the engine and potentially cause damage. It is common for an old air hose to distort, crack and leak and if you notice your car is lacking in performance and using more fuel, it could be a sign that the Vauxhall air hose is broken. You may be able to repair the Vauxhall air hose if there is a slight crack but if it is a big crack or the hose is really warped due to old age you will need to replace the Vauxhall air hose.

Vauxhall trivia

• Vauxhall has been manufacturing cars continuously in Britain since 1903, making it the oldest car brand to survive in the UK.
• Vauxhall's first-ever car had a whopping five-horsepower and didn't have a steering wheel! Instead, it used a tiller for guiding direction, along with two forward gears. Who even needs a reverse gear?
• WWII got in the way of making cars, as Vauxhall started building the famous Churchill tank instead. It was designed and started rolling out of the factory in less than a year, and they made over 5,600 of them!
• It's the Corsa that is, by far, the most popular make produced by Vauxhall. Even as late as 2019, there were twice as many Corsa sales as there were of any other type of car.
• The Vauxhall Vectra was the last car they ever produced in Luton, and it went on to become one of their most poorly reviewed vehicles. Top Gear even put the '95 Vectra on their list of the worst cars of the last 20 years (Clarkson wouldn't even drive it!).
