Don't get too excited chaps........Webasto have been sending out that very same response for months now. It may be coming but I doubt its imminent, but it would be nice.

Perhaps Envoy could make some enquiries through the trade entrance to verify the report  TDV6 - gone
TDV8 - gone

Just found the email I received from Mr Rod Gascoyne Sales Service Manager Webasto UK.

Sent to me on 16 JAN 2006 telling me the timer would be launched within a few weeks and that they couldn't confirm prices until they had evaluated it in a test vehicle

Does the sound familar

I've sent him a reply today. We'll see................................  TDV6 - gone
TDV8 - gone

I have just had a lengthy chat with Webasto about the diesel heater timer
It has been in devopment in Germany for a while and Webasto have managed to get two units, but Germany have just withdrawn them from sale as there is a fault code comming up when plugged in to the diagonstis, although there isnt actually a fault there. As soon as it has been sorted then Webasto will let me have a complete unit including english fitting instructions so that we can fit it and judge how easy it is and how long it takes to fit. The cost is going to be about £400 plus vat plus fitting, which they think will be about two hours.
I have mentioned buying a quantity and they are more than happy to supply as we are agents, so this will offcourse bring the price down. they should be available early in the new year.

If you want me to buy a quantity of these and handle the payments and postage i will.
What i need is some idea of who will want this kit, before the new year would be good. some of my Previous cars

Probably a little too much for me but if I was you let the guys on D3 know - they would be very interested. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten
2009 Alaska TDV8 - Gone and much missed.

I think I'd pay the £400 if I can cure my knock knock!

I'm interested as I quite often have to start or finish work in the middle of the night when you lot are all tucked up in bed It will also save fuel on shorter journeys. TDV6 - gone

I've had a reply from Mr Rod Gascoyne

As I thought another red herring. He said the timer is suffering from "Phantom fault codes" and has been withdrawn. They are working on it and will update when they have sorted it.

That's what I thought. Perhaps winter 2008  TDV6 - gone
TDV8 - gone

Probably never
