Don't fix what ain't broke ......

Yes it's available from a dealer.
Although it's hard to call one £10 adapter and a screw-on filter a 'kit'!
I've got the part number somewhere; if no-one else finds it before I get home at the weekend, I'll pass it on.

Yes I done mine a few months back so much better than the element type,  some numpty had overtightened the cap on the element before I had the car and it damaged the canister  I can't find the part number but if you go to your local dealer and tell them what you want they will know.

I believe the adapter is PN90412159 and you will need some thread lock.

I think all the relevant details are in the guide

Whats wrong with the paper element type? Less chance of leaking, and less messy when changing
