Is there enough room to get on it and loosen it in the car (I've not done a 735)?

Give it a shot if you think you can get to it, but be prepared to pull the regulator if the last accumulator was installed by a gorilla!! The last one I did, I had to put a monster "C" clamp on it with a bit of a cheater bar to loosen it! But having said that, it is only supposed to be torqued to 35 Ft/Lbs, so give it a shot, maybe it was put on right and it will come right off.[/list]
Thanks,
Second problem, I live in France and the accumulator goes for 165 ? = 198 $ yep expensive. Pellican parts will not ship (hazardous material)
It seems autohausaz might ship (not sure though).

Do you guys have any links where I could get it from Germany maybe.

I found this accumulator in Denmark, I'm not sure about the brand. Do you think it is ok or a low quality copy?
