The same heat exchanger type thing was fitted to alot of VW/Audi cars so if you don't want to pay new try a scrappy. I think some TD or VR6 cars with air con had bigger ones! Put your finger on one end and blow in the other should show up a lemon. I think they'll cost a few quid new, but should be cheep from scrappy and probubly come with the filter houseing.

Last time I bought one of these was for a 4 cyl Audi 80, sure is was around £47.00 (genuine VAG) I believe it is the same or similar.
I just had a re-read...do you mean an addon kit to improve cooling or just the original?

Square cooler came with 2.1 wbx too. They are built like brick out houses, so what is wrong with yours?
