Not quite my first post, I have posted in the past but with the car performing faultlessly(ish) and lack of surfing time I have not been around and forgot my log in details.
Anyway... Had a search and can't find a definitive answer.
2005 A4 1.9TDi Avant B7
Some time ago the Econ light came on, had a regas done at service and no different. A quick google suggested the G65/Thrust sensor, so I ordered one from ECP which was a different design.
The number on my old one was 8E0 959 126, after a bit more searching I found there have been a few revisions to this latest spec type, but the length and the thread diameter means it wont fit.

My style switch
Type supplied by ECP
As I was stuck for time I just put the other one back in and left it. With the warmer weather I am revisiting the problem.
So, the question is, is there an adapter that screws into the condenser to allow the later type switch to fit, or do I have to fit an updated/later condenser.
If it's an adapter, does anyone have the part number ?
Any input appreciated.
