Hi
Hi,
from reading your post, I think you mean the plastic insert that the little pipe goes on is popping out.
I've got the 1.6 tdci and the return pipes fit on the top, so slightly different to yours.
I did find though, that the plastic insert sometimes needed a slight tap to seat properly and sort of clip in snug, then the 'R' clip holds it in.
Check with a pin or a dart, something with a point, that there isn't a bit of the old insert still in there stopping it from seating properly. It would only take a tiny slither of debris to cause a problem.
Good luck
Bob.
