From some interweb videos I thought the kit came with a “map” for the balls….is it unclear / not present? Can’t believe anything on the web now….:-)Quote:

Beware! IIRC not all the balls are the same size.
That’s perfectly normal…Quote:

Long story short I made it home used 7 litres of coolant ended up removing the coolant bottle cap as with it left on I would need to top up every 30km but with the cap removed and taking it easy I got around 150km. So a quick search of the forum when I got home lead me to look in the valley and it was full of coolant so yesterday I replaced the thermostat housing manifold. I’ve had my D4 SDV6 for 9months it’s frustrating at times but there is nothing else like it and I’ve found quite a bit of information off this forum that has been very helpful. Thanks again everyone.
From all the videos i have watched they are the same, how would you know anyway ?Quote:

Nope. And the balls are in different spots depending on the valve body variant, hence photos are your best friend [emoji106]Quote:

I don't care if you choose not to check, I simply posted what I was told.
Post Apple Car play install, and wanting to keep the install looking factory, I fitted the aftermarket microphone in the factory location.
The problems became apparent when over 60km/h the new microphone picks up roof resonance due to its profile and design.
I sketched this little bugger up in Fusion and printed it out.

Microphone is an interference fit, and now all openings to the microphone are directed only to the cabin.

I also have some acoustic foam due in the morning to further keep roof noise down (pics to follow)
