    DI Cassette fitting-willit fit???

    I've found a DI unit for sale and need to know if a unit from a 2.0 Turbo CD S will fit a CSE. I'm thinking yes, but as a total newbe, I have to ask!

    Cheers

    Nick

    If It's red and does not have a captive lead then it will fit.

    My local dealer were saying last weekend that they still have 1 car with the orignal captive lead red DI going strong.

    Amazing....

    Hi Andrew,

    You've lost me! If you can help me understand what this means, that'd be great!

    Cheers

    Hi,

    DI's (for 4 cylinder cars) come in two main flavours, Red (for 9000's, GM900's and early 9-3's - for Trionic T5) and Black (for later 9-3 and 9-5's - for Trionic T7)

    The Red DI came originally as a unit with a 2ft lead permanantly fixed. From about 1992 thuis was changed so the the Lead was attached to the car and a 8 way plug to connect to the DI.

    The earlier version is no longer available and most cars have been upgraded to the later 2 part (lead and di) units.

    Be warned though, some of the early type (1 part captive lead) are still being bartered around 2nd hand on places like Ebay. Unlikely but remotely possible.
