Yeah cleaned mine on Sunday, it took me all of 10 mins to remove it. Four allen bolts and a couple of jubilee clips for hoses.

Ony thing with ebay is that if there is an intermitent fault on it you may not find out until the warrenty is up.

Thanks for all the advice as usual!
I managed to get one off ebay for £19.95....  it has supposedly come off an Audi TT with only 5K engine use (not too sure about that).

Anyway.  Once i have fitted it, which i am going to try and do myself does anything need doing on VAG??? Cos i dont have that.

Thanks again
