Hi,
I've had this 924 for a few months now and always thought I had a duct missing of some sort. There's a white plastic air intake attached to the front panel of the engine bay over to the left-hand side (if you were looking towards the engine). However, there's nothing attached to it. Photographs of 924 engines seem to show that this vent should have a large piece of ducting attached to it which goes down towards the bottom of the engine - what is it for?
Cheers,
Chris.
There is indeed a plastic air duct that heads towards the alternator (which has an intake opening) - the final connection is made by durable piping.

Thanks for the replies.. for some reason this second one only just turned up on my news server four days late!
Cheers for the pic, I guess maybe it might be worth getting that PET software on CD - looks pretty useful. I'll look out for the ducting... I suppose it can't be that necessary - am I risking my alternator overheating?
Chris.
