Hi

Thanks for the replies guys.

I ended up having the dealer do it - cost £390 all in after a bit of haggling...

I had priced up at £63 for fluid, £65 ish for a VIDA/DICE and whatever it would have cost for a s/h tank - no idea but wasn't expecting it to be too expensive as it doesn't seem to be a part in high demand [just by lucky blokes like me....]

The service bloke at the dealers did say that a replacement tank would have to be "coded" to the vehicle as they are specific to the VIN - didn't sound right to me - perhaps he meant that the level had to be reset via VIDA?

Anyway all sorted now - thanks again for your help

Cheers

D J
