Is actually a Mercedes Part - A 202 680 00 70

Just ordered one for mine, you have to tell them to order from Germany otherwise they may not find it. As of April 2014 they are £10.80 + vat.

Best be quick though, no more being made and only 1283 left

With the above info & a lot of other cross referencing, it looked like the MAF for a 2001(ish) Range Rover also contained a '029' insert.

I bought one (+ the appropriate Torx security bit - again you can order the complete housing cheaper than MG ones then swap the 'innards') & can now 100% confirm it works (having now had it double checked on a T4).

On a similar Land Rover vein - the clutch slave is the same as a Mk1 Freelander, you just need to bend the metal pipes a bit to match up with the car's:

For anyone out there who has skullcap type powerfold mirrors, the same motors were also used in older model Jaguar XJ and X type, plus Volvo on the old S60/V70 and XC70, they are not listed as a service item but it is something else to look out for in breakers yards

I found MAHLE KC24 as a cheap alternative for the diesel fuel filter. It is a bit smaller in diametter, so I used a rubber piece to wrap the filter arround and tighten the filter in the bracket. The thread is the same as the original.

Bini H/B cables and equaliser are the same dimensions as ours and have no compensator, straight replacement, if a little more fiddly.

I've only just read this post.

Reeds, thats very handy to know, I've owned Ford Galaxy's for 10 years now. Those Tie Rods will also be the same on the SEAT Alhambra aswell.

BMW 318D air filter fits our diesels £4.41 ebay "best offer"

I found a list of cars that the 75 appeared on for an after-market performance air filter so there seems to be a lot the same.

I have a worn nearside driveshaft on the ZT. I was looking on eBay yesterday and the freelander V6 driveshaft looks almost exactly like the MG Rover one. Are there significant differences (other than the price)?

seems to be the same on all these (needs verifying)
