its right infront of you (if you have the k04) not sure about other locations and its as simple as unbolting it 3 hex bolts and pulling it out to check, literally 2 min job

Cheers for that CUPRAK1. I've got a K03 but its probably in the same place. The large brass body which the torx bolts go through has the DV part screwed into the top by the looks of it( version B) I just need a larger ring spanner to get it out. Thanks again.

Ah bugger...what the hell was I trying to remove then?? Its positioned on the front right of the engine, big brass bodied thing with HITACHI stamped on it and what ever was screwed into the top said version B. Something to do with the fueling maybe?

D'oh!! Right I'll leave that alone then!! I had a good look round when I had the engine cover off and getting to the turbo looked a right pain in the arse. One for the garage to check next time its in.
