I could not find a distributor for Samco hoses here in SA...when one of my original CAC pipes blew I bought both OEM pipes from the dealer for R4,640.00 total.
Seeing as my original hoses lasted 9 years and 150,000 kms and seeing as I do very little traveling nowadays I thought that OEM would be fine for now.
I actualy was looking into getting some Samcos from overseas as I expected mine to blow sometime but I delayed a bit too long. I was looking at a site called Merlinmotoring.co.uk (I think)...easier to get from the UK than from the USA plus the USA never got the 2.5 CRD whereas Europe,SA and Australia did.
I was actualy trying to get the Black Samco hoses...looks more original than blue or red!
