How long will it take? The work will be carried out as quickly and efficently as possible in order to minimize inconveinence to customers and is expected to take approximately two hours, although your dealer may need your vehicle longer due to service scheuling requirements.

What we are asking you to do Contact your preferred dealer without delay. Provide the dealer with your Vehicle identification number (VIN) located at the begining of this letter, and vehicle registration number. Ask for a service date for safety Recall Program A156. If you do not have a servicing dealer, please access

intriguing. I'd tended to assume that the petrol and diesel ones had the same tank. Mebbe something in the petrol rots the plastic?

our diesel one is in the age bracket, but obviously isn't a petrol tank...
