110 HDI (2000) Air Filter Box lid broken

Post by Springnuts »

Hi all, one of the screw tabs on the box lid has broken, so the lid does not seal properly. I am concerned that this allows unfiltered air into the engine - does this sound likely? I guess the main stealer price will be high, so hope to get one from eBay or a local scrapyard. Any hints and advice gratefully received. Regards, Springnuts.
