Hello everyone
I got a 07 Volvo Vnl...ı just detected an air leak on dark orange air hose right by where all the colorful hose stands...and it leaks from where it connects to the metal piece that comes from the wall...I don't see any low pressure either idling or driving...when I stop I just hear the leak...
Any idea if this is something I can fix?
Or if I go to TA service shop how much it would cost?
Thank you...

The hose might be chafed from them being bunched together. The hose cam be replaced easily if it comes off the firewall. Should be a push fitting so you can pull the line off and patch it. It'll say the size of the air line, so your call on doing it yourself or a shop. You can do that in a parking lot if you had to.

Do u know any DIY service? I never done that before..I assume it's not free..how much would it cost...thank you...

Total cost if you did it yourself would be a few dollars. Just a matter of finding the leak and then getting a patch kit. Or replace the entire hose. Home depot has union fittings and such, I carry a few of every size for emergencies.

Selam Ercan, if there is a brass ring where the orange hose enters the fitting,take a small screw driver and use it to push in on brass ring,as you push pull the hose out (you may wiggle it bit) cut the hose about 3/4 inch and push the hose back in to fitting ,you are done.
