@infernalant - those are two things on my to-do list! Did you have any fault codes showing before you replaced the DV?

Nope, no fault codes at all. Was just experiencing the signs of a knackered DV and it was obvious once I took it off!

I took the arch lining out of the front (both sides) removed the STUPID sponge and covered the inside lip of the arches in collinite 746S

Should keep the arches rust-free for a while  :drinking:

Sprayed Wynns EGR Cleaner into the intake system for a little clean, It solved a cold start problem i was having for a few days but now is back not not instantly firing up again. So going in for a terraclean and then seafoamed before full service later in the year..

That shows you have either gummed up exhaust valves or injector issues, possibly gummed up aswell. I would Seafoam or remove the exhaust manifold and have the injectors out. I wouldn't bother with terraclean.. I tried it, wasted money.
