Concern

Fuel could leak from the resin fuel return pipe on the inlet manifold.

Defect, as DVSA words it

It has been identified that the engine fuel return pipe can become damaged as the result of abrasion with it's fixation and harness.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recalled vehicles will be checked for evidence of pipe damage which if none is evident protective covers will be installed. Should it be found that the pipes are damaged they will be replaced by pipes which are fitted with protective covers.

What changed since we first read it

Nothing yet. The wording has been the same on every read since 4 September 2026. The file is read again every day; if DVSA rewrites the defect, remedy or concern, the old and new text will appear here with both dates.

The same recall in other registers

No match found in the American, Canadian or European registers by manufacturer reference, because DVSA lists none for this recall. A recall can exist abroad under a different reference; this site only claims a match when the reference agrees.
