"With fuirther investigation I read today that THERE IS some differences between the 2001 and prior years to the LDV pilot 2002. Apparently LDV put DW8's in the last few Pilots made instead of the XUD9A, and you can tell the difference because the oil filter is on the back of the engine on the Pilot's XUD, and on a DW8 it's between the manifolds on the top of the engine. A friend of mine beleives that LDV probably did this because of the shift to EURO III emissions standards, but would have had to have fitted any 2002 LDV pilots with an EGR valve and probably would comply to the LEZ regulations also.
