Review on πŸ”Œ Dorman 696-608 Engine Air Intake Hose for Mazda Models, Black - Enhanced SEO by Josh Koa

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Fits perfectly but minor issue

This air intake hose fitted my Mazda perfectly. It looks just like the original. The original intake pipe had snapped in the folds of an accordion. This caused CEL error P0174 (Bank 2 Bias). I had a problem with the product. After installation, my car started making a strange squeaking noise about 30 seconds after starting the car. I removed the intake hose and inspected it closely. I found that the vacuum line was sealed on the hose. The hose came with a new vacuum elbow already installed. So who would have thought that the vacuum line would be open up to the hose. There were no instructions in this part to help you with that. I think if you work with cars all the time, this is common knowledge. I drilled a hole and the noise is gone.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Some issues
