Literally had no idea what was going on, watched your video, walked straight out to the car and looked at the hose and there she was a crack the same size as yours in EXACTLY the same spot. Thank you man. We purchased the same hose 30 minutes later.

SAVED MY BACON! I took the bloody truck to the mechanic 3 times. All 3 times was told "cleared the computer, should fix itself" - they didn't even try to identify the code. After Googling like a maniac, I found this video. Groped under the hood & wouldn't ya know, bloody split in the hose! Ordered a part & fixed it for less than $50. Huge kudos, Mate! B #agirlcalledB

Hey mate just wanted to say thankyou so much for this! Mechanics missed it in the service 3 days ago, but I just checked and my pipe has an almost identical split on my 2012 bt50. Legend mate!

Wow, talk about great timing. My Ranger's been running sluggish, blowing smoke, chewing more fuel. Not limp mode but not its usual self. Scangauge showed the same code as "pending", googled it. Bingo! Found your video, just now checked the utes hose & a sure enough its got a split. New hose will go on tomorrow. thanks for putting this out there. saved me a, no doubt, expensive visit to a dealer.

Legend. Intercooler hose had a split on my 2012 BT-50. SOS tape applied and waiting for part from Plazmaman. Much appreciated.

Wow, this is interesting. You'd think with all the Rangers/bt50s we service at the workshop we would of seen this problem but that's the first time I've heard of it. Sweet that's something I'll keep my eye on when we check them over. Man that data scanner has been a life saver for you a few times now!!! And good choice in replacement pipe too. Plasmaman are an epic product. That's what I got on the nav 👍😎

Thank you for this video, I spent a stupid amount of money at a Ford mechanic who couldn't fix this problem. It turns out my ford had a cracked intercooler which i replaced (quite easy to do) but this video sent me in the right direction. this is also a very common problme with these model fords.

Yea awesome stuff brother. You'd think after designing vehicles for over a 100 years, this issue would be solved. I have a Ford Ranger and noticed the same bloody thing. Awesome videos matey. Thanks heaps for all the tips.

Thanks for this. Just used this to get myself out of trouble. Great content

Thanks for the heads up mate. Great vid as always. 😉 Cheers 🍻

Thanks for the video, helped me find a similar split in my '13 BT50.

Thanks mate.. more help then 2 mechanics I went to.. fixed it and cleared the engine light for $200.. my bt 50 was going into limp mode and blowing a tonne of smoke thanks again😊

Thanks for the heads up. Good information.

Thanks mate, helped me out with a similar issue. Mine ended up being the intercooler.

Thanks for the info. I've had the same issue with my BT50 but discovered it was the intercooler was blown in the middle at one of its tubes. I steal epoxy it and my problem was fixed lol

Had the same problem without even knowing it, THANK YOU!!!!

Yep - I had the same issue. Smoke and loss of power, with power train light going on. Split on hose, easy fix. Thanks for the upload mate !

Legend !!! I had this problem happen yesterday after a little bit of investigation and coming across this video, problem solved, used tape to secure until I got my new hose, now have my new hose and she's driving beautifully now

Awesome stuff mike! My god mate the old youtube algorithim must have picked you up brother! 1900 to 15000 subs in a couple weeks! Killing it my man! 👍👍👍

Thanks for the tips. Repair manual and EDS. Silicone tape, hose clamps.

Thanks mate, great advice. will change mine now. Cheers

Had the same thing happen to me a few months ago on a 2014 BT50, replaced it with the same Plasmaman one, so far so good.

Nice. 👍👍👍 Here in Malaysia, we used stainless steel intercooler pipe@ hose as it will last longer.

Thanks for this. .I'll have to watch out for this problem, I own a Mazda BT50 4x2 MT dual cab and it will turn 6 years this July and problems usually appear after the 5 year warranty 😥

I don’t have a Mazda, I don’t even have a diesel but I enjoy your uploads mate, really good content

Great vid mate, jump on the bt50 pages on facebook plenty of info on common issues and solutions, this issue comes up once a week! Also i had a stick go through my O2 sensor wire on exhaust on a low range track in Augusta, put car into limp mode, combination of mates and the bt50 page got us out of the shit. Just one to look out for.

You are a legend. Fixed!!!

Been there done that. My Ranger had done about 135,000 K when the hose went. Couldn't sort it out until I bought an OBD2 anyliser. Replaced with a silicon hose and all good. Also MAF replaced at same time. All parts purchased on Ebay and all going well now. One word of advice is to use super clamps on silicon hose as it is not as grippy as rubber. Ordinary clamps can slip off if not done up super tight.

Awesome - exactly the same issue here 2012 PX Ranger $90 done and dusted

Absolute legend, same thing for myself 2012 Ford ranger, power train light had come up on my dash lost all boost and entered limp mode had me fucked…exact same size hole and spot thanks for the video helped with diagnosis

Same problem mate, helped heaps cheers

Cheers mate same split 2013 bt50

Silicone tape and clamps. Great idea, ill use that one

I put a Plazmaman cold pipe on, mate went through two standard tubes and now has a Plasmaman cold tube on and no issues. Hope to put one of their intercoolers in soon too

@SeekAdventure legend mate! Found a crack in mine in the same spot.

Got bt50 and it stated doing the same thing cheer man 👍

Yep happened to my 2013 Ranger. Ford dealer was pretty quick to charge me $220 to replace, even though I had an extended warranty. They claimed that the inter-cooler hose is a consumable and extended warranty doesn't cover consumables

Thank u so much man

Mine split as well! Just ordered a new Plazmaman one like yours. How is it holding up with the Plazmaman one mate?

Hi mate, have you ever had problems with your egr valve on BT50’s or Rangers .

Awesome mate . Thx for that . 2012 ranger , done 200k, gone to limp mode every time driving over 85 with the orange cog wheel light on the dash , sprayed water over the hose and straight away I saw the water was bursting beneath the hose indicating a hair line cracks. Bought the same silicon hose recommended on the video, used Toledo hook tool to release the old hose that was stucked, 15 minutes later I drove the ranger in a freeway for 100k/h and problems sorted, Thank heaps !!

Hey mate, enjoy your channel. Haven’t seen any posts for awhile? You still in the KZread game?

I was wondering if there is a specific Torque when tie the Stainless Steel Clamp/collar..

My Ford Ranger is 2017 and it still has the same rubbish quality hose just a bit over 100,000 kilometres and mines cracked also. They are idiots for the money that you pay for the car. Thanks for your video

EDS scanner bought from? haynes manuals are pretty good or atleast they were until they were bought out

Grat video, thanks

That stretchy repair tape can save your butt big time, always have a roll in the boot of my car.

Common problem on the Jeep Libertys too. My turbo to intercooler hose blew at 72K miles.

Another one - mines done the same; bought the same silicone hose too!

Exact same problem lol. Thanks mate

Yeah had exactly same problem in my 2014 BT50. Had it replaced by Mazda at my expense 🤬. Have now bought a silicon aftermarket unit from Plazmaman which I will keep in car for replacement when the new one dies, which I am certain it will. Is a very common problem going by all the usual forums

I’m having the limp mod prob at the moment. There’s a double skin on the intercoler pipe . Do u think still be problem

Which do you prefer between a metal pipe and a silicone pipe?

Same issue with with ford ranger 3.2 2014 model went into limp mode today

Mate know anything about a trickling water sound behind dash ?

the plazmaman is that the cold side or the hot side?

Hi I have a mazda bt50 AN A POWER TRAIN LIGHT came I clean the tps sensor and check for leaks and nothing clear the codes and the light still came back on any suggestions

Shoulda went polished alloy for the extra wank factor 😂 serious note you might find it a touch more responsive as the factory rubber hose tends to balloon creating lag 👍🏼

Jeeps 2012 have the same problem with the inter cooler pipes. Silicon replacements cost $300

Thanks for sharing, My ford ranger has code P0048 and its on a limp mode (turbocharger booster) help please

My Mazda BT50 has no engine power when you're shifting to 3rd gear and onwards..did fault findings and found that when you rev the engine,the suction hose after the intercooler to the intake manifold starts to shrink or squeezes in...what's the probable cause.. please help.ta.

Interesting. I was told it can be any volume. eg. EGR valve staying closed. I went to valve at this stage it was jammed closed. Now I dice wether the solenoid is stuffed because nothing has changed but yet it has only coded POOBD same symptoms as yours. Maybe it's both.

Hi I Have 2012 Ranger 220000ks Found split intercooler hose and replaced it Still have same light coming on Cleaned MAF sensor with specified Cleaner Everything looks normal It’s blowing more smoke than usual and sluggish at low speed I have no idea what’s wrong Any ideas thanks

Hi, ive just checked my pipe & there's no cracks? But light comes on sometimes 2015 model

Hi there my 3.2 ranger Los of power when pulling a trailer or go up hill vehicle only no warning lights boost pipe fine 🤔

Yeah had that problem

How fix limp mode..my ford ranger trekker 2009..

happened in my bt-50 2.2cc , from malaysia. no recall from mazda . can we all sue them ?

my ford ranger 2.2 is having this problem now, powertrain warning comes on after 5mins warmed up. and its going limp mode, doesnt feel the turbo running at all, max speed 60-70km/h full acceleration. It's been a week already and I drove for about ~100km with this problem, will it harm my enginer/ turbo/ gear before it's fix?

Get in and change the hotside to a direct pipe while you’re at it. Eliminate the chance of it happening over that side and also reduces the massive factory piping to a smaller direct setup...

Good that you where able to get going again mate . There is something to be said for the simple NA petrol engine imo . Diesel does have its good points , but a nice long stroke NA petrol is pretty nice imo.

Same problem on 15 ranger

I wouldn't be too worried, rubber pipes don't last forever. 7 years isn't bad.

I have had P00BD code for 4 months I’ve got 3” exhaust, upgraded intercooler and dynotune on my first ranger, no splits in hose (smoke tested) and no idea what issue is. Only happens 3/4 throttle uphills at 80kmph+ (eg heavy torque load) otherwise it’s fine. Tuner has changed tune to allow higher torque threshold but still happens. I’ve changed MAF sensor still does it. Stumped.

Has the issue been resolved? I'm having the same issue right now. I've changed the intercooler hose to a stainless steel piping yet the P00BD code still appears but simply turning it off then turning it back on will make the check engine light disappear and the car becomes normal again. This issue would randomly appear when it's cold outside.

@@OlsenH6 yeah, turned out to be the K&N filter I put in, I oiled it as you are supposed to do, the oil residue under heavy acceleration must have got onto the MAF sensor causing the code to get thrown, changing back to standard filter and cleaning MAF sensor with MAF cleaner several times ultimately sorted it

First of all you have a truck...NOT A CAR...However i had the same location on the hose crack also.had a different symptom ...smelly exhaust...along with limp mode and hot engine..replaced and now back to normal....Its a ford and mazda issue for sure.

I replaced all my inlet hoses with silicone hoses much stronger and more heat stable

Diesels don't have a throttle valve and so virtually are never at vacuum. Modern turbos boost slightly even at idle.
