VW has discontinued this tank. I have been searching for some in Europe but
so far no luck.  I understand that the later Diesel version, the 405D (which
is still available), can be substituted if you change a couple of hoses. I
seem to recall some mention of this on the list once. You might check the
list archives or ask your local dealer.
