Valves on bulkhead
I have recently bought a 2003 53(dec) 110 executive estate,i sold my 2002 52 110 Rapier estate and was looking under both engine bays this morning comparing stuff and noticed my old Rapier has 3 valves of some description on the bulkhead behind the engine but my Exec has only 2,it seems it hasn't got the right hand one,what do they do? any ideas?

Re: Valves on bulkhead
What is an air doser? and why wouldn't my 2003 110 hdi not have one?

Why? As far as I remember it says mine's a Sanitary Towel on the paperwork.
Dunno, something about injecting more air into the system to further burn your valves. Mine doesn't have one either, a spot of good luck methinks.grasmere59 wrote:What is an air doser? and why wouldn't my 2003 110 hdi not have one?

Re: Valves on bulkhead
Less valves is good, (mine's got 5 of the buggers). 

2002 HDi 2.2 Exec Estate, (2008-12) (wonderful)
2003 HDi 2.2 6-speed Exec Estate (2012-19) (also a gem)
2009 Citroen C5 2.0 HDi VTR+ Estate (godawful heap)
2008 BMW E91 330i touring (great fun - murdered by a reversing SUV)
2007 BMW E91 325i touring (slower smoother quieter)
