Just FYI - not worth starting a new thread over, but worth mentioning:
I just heard back - the Jaguar X-type 2.5 duratec damper is pretty much identical to current press fit low cost cougar and contour pulleys. Funny - had to be shipped from England, but was mfg'd in Canada. Seems the "powers that be" not only decided not to release the DMD as an upgraded service part for existing duratecs, they decided not to use it on current production Jaguars either.
If anyone has a part number you could probably use Ford Mexico as a NAFTA source of current mondeo dampers, with lower shipping costs to boot, (unless they decided they didn't want/need to use them either.......)
