You might want to check your compressor intake pipe, see previous post as mine was not connected to another pipe.
Remove front nearside foglight grill by releasing the outer clips by the front wing. Now grasp the grill on the edge close to the centre grill and pull whilst applying gentle upwards motion. The grill is held on by four clips (2 top and 2 bottom) and you need to release them carefully, there are no holes or anything to insert a screwdriver like on the D2.
Now remove the foglight, held in by three screws, two outer and one inner. and disconnect the wiring.
Look into the opening where the light was and there is a smallish pipe coming down from the top (not the aircon ones). Follow this pipe down and it should have a clip on the end, and it should be attached to the air compressor intake pipe. If the pipe is hanging in thin air, it should be easy to find where it goes as the air compressor intake is pretty close to the end.
