Hi Michael

If your vehicle had a VDL Conversion, it would have been either

Stage 1: Chip + Free flow + Air cleaner
or
Stage 2: Chip + Free flow + Air cleaner + Cylinder head/ Gas flow + Camshaft

The Unclip will be close to the vehicle's ECU (Left hand side of clutch pedal above the gearbox tunnel)
As Peter said…. there would be a stamped Number on the manifold
If you phone VDL they should be able to confirm which conversion stage the vehicle received.

But we also only have to watch ONE gauge when driving, and that is the fuel gauge!

When ever you drive a diesel you become blind and deaf!! The madman screams so loudly you can't hear anything and then the cabin fills with white smoke and you can't see anything!!!! :rolling: :rolling: :blonde:
