rofl, I  did wonder what the link was in reference too. If you can come up with the proper link fid77 be interested to see what's said. I always thought the 300tdi was a new engine from scratch and didn't use earlier block which I presume would be the 200tdi.

Best suggestion so far is that's for a cup holder for when inevitable repairs are carried out on the engine.
