I think there was another one replaced recently. ISTR the bar itself is about £36? but the labout brought it up to about £360 going from memory.

Are you not in Warranty? (update your profile & it'll make life easier Thumbs Up )

It will probaly be the air dryer canister blown off the air compressor.

Located under the left side, in front of the rear wheel. If this is the case, then there may some small white silica beads falling out of the compressor cover. A new compressor required I'm afraid Crying or Very sad

Although I have not done one myself, I dont think its that difficult to change. Maybe need the errors clearing from the ecu though. So probably a dealer required.
