Well lesson learned this evening what a load of crap the britpart air bags are put the rears on as they seemed the harder choice to do and put it all back together and neither side air pipe fittings seal :mad: then to top it off I now have diesel dripping off my sump that's left a puddle within 2 minutes of running :(

Did you check that two o rings were fitted below the collet?

yep they are in there just the push fits on the bags dont seem to grip the pipe very well even put a bit of rubber grease on the pipe to make sure they went all the way and still leak

I wouldn't put rubber grease on as they might not grip properly. A bit of very, very fine wet and dry to deal with any scratches on the pipe and maybe a pencil sharpener for a slight chamfer on the end if soneone has cut the pipe to ensure it doesn't damage the o-rings when pushing in.

If the car is let down before there's enough air in the bag then it can push the cap up and cause it to leak.
 
Will probably have another go at it later or tomorrow , decided to use the springy one today o_O will take the pipes out again and check, did take the ends off with a proper pipe cutter so I know the ends of the pipe are good , the diesel leak is no4 injector that has decided to leak where the plastic bit meets the body of it so I now need one of them , was hoping it was just a leak off pipe but luck wasn't on my side last night obviously o_O @RangeRoller dt what do you mean GB overheat .?

If you cut a bit off the pipes be aware, there is normally a raised collar to aid insertion but may stop full insertion when the pipe is shortened.
I would add, that when the pipe appears to be fully in, it may not have passed the second O ring.

I did see that note in your guide to fitting the bags but my one doesn't have the raised collar bit on the rear pipes but it does on the front
 
+1^^^^, personally I'd remove the collet and take the o rings out with a plastic crochet hook and clean the grease off everything,as suggested a light use of a pencil sharpener and dry assembly.;)
 
is there anything special about this cable or would i be able to use my impa one?
I don't know what the INPA cable is. The EAS cable is unique to the EAS and does nothing else but the EAS lines could be included in a general purpose cable. If you go to the RSW web site, the cable details are there so you could meter out your INPA cable to see if it has the EAS lines in it.
