whooshing on acceleration…….

Ok wife says her f/l is whooshing on acceleration ,I can't hear it but i am going deaf ,so I presume its a hose or the intercooler.Any hoses more prone to failure than others?

In my experience the short hose that attaches to the throttle valve at the front of the engine is the one that seems to fail most regularly.

Not always easy to see if it's split without removing it as well. (Now Sold). 2008 Freelander 2 (Nazca Sand) SE TD4 Auto. Statutory write off & on WOVR for hail damage but still road legal.
