Vacuum leak behind instrument cluster??
This evening i noticed a strange sound when i shut off the engine.
A "psssssssssss...." from behind the instrument cluster. I started the engine again and put my ear close to the cluster and heard an ongoing "psssssssss" that faded away when i shut of the engine again. It is without a doubt the sound of air from a vacuum leak. But what on earth is a vacuum hose doing behind the instrument cluster??? Freestyler

Did you have headlight adjustments at one time? They are vacuum controlled.

Oh man.. *slap myself on the forehead*
![]() Of course! The headlight adjustment.. So.. before i rip the entire instrument panel out. Is there some sneaky way to get behind the adjustment wheel, to reconnect/replace hose fittings..? Freestyler
