My 300tdi rubber donut after 300,000km is still working fine, and I have pushed everything to the limits with turbo and fuel pressure (and I drive it hard to 1.5bar at gear shifts). Sounds like its luck of the draw with these things failing, but one thing that is coming up time and again at forums, is that its not worth getting a non genuine product?
However, its seems that my rubber donut is now a little softened from oil so I am about to change it. I don't need the rest of the kit as everything is regularly maintained and kept clean. I try not to buy from Australian dealers as they are a rip off for parts. Problem is, I don't seem to be able to find anyone on the internet selling just the genuine donut? Does anyone know who sells just the genuine donut?
There's one supplier here and they post worldwide : TVF100010GB | Prop Coupling Incl. Bolts-OEM
