Hi guys, can anyone tell me how to change the air filter on my facelift diesel,i have read the thread on replacing an earlier type but mine looks nothing like, do i still have to remove the pollen filter housing etc at the back of engine? i am going to fit a new engine breather at the same time is there anyway of checking which type i have before removing the cover are there any marks which can confirm which type is fitted ? any help, as always gratefully recieved

The facelifted version has a shortened engine sound cover, and I'm wondering the same thing too. I think the split in the cover was to allow the change without having to take half the engine bay apart.

It would be so good to be able to get a service manual for the diesels. Bentley Manual's only cover the US petrol models.
