New this part is supplied filled with an inert gas so needs to remain sealed until used.
Recovered or left to atmosphere for too long and the drying material can burst from its container.
If one that has burst is fitted the whole A/C system will end up coated with a sticky white paste.
Big clean up and a fault that often kills compressors.

There are only two types of dryer fitted to XM's.
There were a load of end of line ones on ebay last year for sub £10 each
The odd one out is of course the 2.5TD.
Never seen any surplus ones of these.
Looked at the work involved in pipework mods to take the standard one but not actually tried it.
Paul, sorry to give the bad news about your recovered ones, sling them out.
