I had the same problem Legin, picked up a second hand one, which has the ali end cap and no problems since.

Thanks Rosco I will go with the alloy ended one looking on this and other forums a lot of other owners have purchased a upgrade intercoolers but I'm happy with mine as it is ,I have the a Alive 170 BHP chip which was probably the cause of the split in the first place .
