Also on the rear:

Anti-roll bar and links
A solid spring steel anti-roll bar is used which operates directly from each upper arm. The anti-roll bar on K1.8 models is 18 mm (0.71 in) diameter.

They don't mention the diameter of the rear ARB on V6 and Diesel models.

This change will no doubt be to refine the characteristics of the handling between the different engine variants due to weight, distribution of the weight, centre of gravity etc
Thanks for the clarification - it looks like I have the right one fitted!

...by dumb luck...
