Re: Breather trumpet?
Hi everyone.
Stupid question maybe but are the trumpet rubbers referred to here supposed to connect to each other (left and right vehicle side) via a connecting tube or just dangle down.
Waiting for a new fuel tank and want to ensure that I get everything right.
Thanks
Andy

Re: 1.6TD engine I.D.
Hi
I have a very similar problem an looks like my engine is not the original. Its DG135877. Is there anyway to decipher what it means.
