Default will this inlet manifold kit fit

ir inlet manifold gaskets for a Diesel CDTI

found a link via a Google search to thi thread in the forum from 2014 https://the75andztclub.co.uk/forum/s...d.php?t=134343, to this
https://www.britishparts.co.uk/land-...-manifold-p351

Some £10 cheaper then Rimmers after market seals but before I click buy, can anyone confirm they will fit the inlet manifold of a CDTI?

If you want originals, about £90 Sorry but that is silly money

Ive had the manifold off numerous times and I have never replaced the gaskets.

They always look clean, still in shape and flexible and with no obvious signs of leakage.

Is there a reason why you want to replace them?

Lol...that's what I read. I posted the same question on here and got told just check them for damage and flexibility. If all good refit.

So far never had an issue. That manifold was on and off quite regularly when I first HD the car. Bit like the front bumper....I'm sure I can still do that with my eyes closed.

Reuse them, they will be fine, I did.

If they appear sound, I'd reuse and save an unnecessary outlay.

yes those in your link would fit, but use the old ones I have changed dozens of these manifold over the last 8 years and only ever used a new set once.

I have fitted three over the weekend alone and all were fitted with the manifold gaskets that were with the manifold in the first place.

Hopefully when cleaned out it should look something like this inside

Arctic, my EGR and manifold looked just like that. EGR is now quite clean and the inlet manifold is soaking. I'm "glad" looking that bad is normal as I was worried.
