Any pointers about replacing leak-off o-rings on diesels? Mines a 1.5 dci replete with plastic componentry. I bought a replacement o-ring on eBay after hearing dealers only sell the whole valve kit. I replaced the old seal/ring trying to be careful but still gauging at the old ring to get it to come off. You could see the old one had perished quite a lot tho. The new ring and everything else got covered in fuel when I popped it on. when I clipped it back in I was disappointed that it didn’t sit in place very securely. So probably still going to have that fuel smell in the car at low speeds. Thanks
