Got mine off ebay for £15, it actually came off a Renault Laguna cos it's the same engine and the part numbers are a match, dead easy to replace, two bolts and couple of hoses.

I have wondered about the said part in the past and wether it can be replaced but I've just left It, anything to be gained in renewing it. Or is it just empty plastic. It looks like a charcoal cannister doesn't it. Thanks mate I will get one now I know it can be replaced.

I have the same intercooler , you'll have to find someone to weld a boss onto the outlet for your map & temp sensor. Unless they sell a Ph2 version?

I think you're pretty local to me - Do you know anyone local around here that can do welding?

Basically it's the crankcase breather, suspected mine was clogged so for £15 worth replacing.

Nice looking Intercooler.
What kind of BHP increase do you expect Alex from the intercooler upgrade?
