When I bought the Commander in 2008, there was a lot of reporting about the turbo inlet pipe on O/S forums. I took a print out to the dealership on the first service.
Second service they installed the modified pipe, fingers crossed 4 years later and nearly 90,000k no problems.
Why the hell didn't Jeep just supply the modified pipe to all the cars, during servicing?

Must admit though, I do have a pack of 4.7k 1/2watt resistors from Jaycar $0.45c, in the glovebox. LOL
