Suggestions for replacement BPV, 200 20V

[Eric Huppert]

Huw,

Sorry.... wasn't quite clear in the message. Was fairly ecstatic when I
discovered the diaphragm was leaking (NOT a bad rear main)... Meaning, it
was indeed the BPV making the noise.

So, consensus so far is the 710 BPV.

As for your psychiatrist/ear doctor "shot", my reliving the sound was an
attempt at humor.

Eric

Have you been to an ear doctor or psychiatrist?  The noise should stop
when you park the car...

A replacement for what?  The rear main seal?  Or the "BPV" mentioned in
the subject line?
