   iirc the ones under the ecu all have different coloured tops depending on the stengh and ammount of stress they can take. ie-
   vtr = orange
   vts = green
   
   i could be wrong tho but i think the others are all the same?

   That could be my problem then! The one under the ecu was changed at the last Mot by the lad I got the car off. And it ain't green! It's the same as the one on my bros 1.1!

   could be mate normally the non genuine ones have a clear/grey top and there utter shit as the rubber is softer and the bolt is shit and made from toffee. i think the genuine ones are 30+vat from citroen and come with a 2 year warranty so well worth going genuine.
