I am not even sure where the unit is on the car, once I get it back from the garage, I will let you know how the change over goes.

Yep, same part as it's the same engine so a straight swap and it does seem to have made the engine a lot smoother - or maybe that's just the placebo effect

Now that is news to me.
Rincewind are you there? or anyone else with definitive answer Please.

(I do change my Filter only at 15,000 miles).
I'll be honest here - didn't even know that there was one on the car and I don't even know what it does to be honest!!!

Like wise hear, I have never owned a diesel before and it was only through the forum I found out about the unit. I have ordered one via eBay. Just waiting for the car to come back from a ex-dealers with a "Engine Disabled" warning light problem

Mine arrived this afternoon, 20 mins to fit!
Old one was manky, and a slight trace of "mayo" type gunge in one side, anything I should worry about? Wont be able to go for a decent run until the weekend.
