Charge Pipe Bank 2
The dealer informed me that my charge pipe at bank 2 was leaking which threw me off. I thought there was only one charge pipe. Is there another name for this charge pipe at bank 2? I am looking at replacing it so want to know what its actually called and where to order from to repair the leak.

There are two turbos, one for each exhaust bank. There is a charge pipe that connects to each turbo and perhaps one of those connections is leaking. Part 2 on the link below is the gasket that seals and you'll see there are two of them. Often people refer to the "charge pipe" as the hard plastic pipe from the intercooler into the intake manifold (part 5), but any of the pipes in this diagram have charged air in them.
