There is a vacuum pump in the area shown in the photo too. It may be just under that vacuum pump if my memory serves me correctly. I will try to get a photo this evening. I have heard that some Canadian drivers change the settings in VAG-COM to keep those glow plugs on longer to get heat into the cabin more quickly.
