    SWMBO and myself have stickers on our cars stating that the gas
    generation units need to be replaced.

    Anyone actually done this? Should we bother?

    On an Alfa Romeo, they probably won't work anyway ;-)

    However, I have seen such messages myself, I believe a ten year life is
    about average. AFAIK, nobody has bothered to replace them - for a start,
    by the time it's required most cars are worth less than the cost of
    doing the job.

    Maybe the addictive substances that keep people using/buying/eating
    that crap are more readily available in Holland...

    Some of the best pizzas I've ever tasted were made at a factory in
    Bedford by mainly asian women.
