Took my disco to my mate to check the oil leak as had gotten really bad.
He's told me the bottom end is fkd basically, pressurising to the point it's shooting oil out all over the shop, blew 3 bungs on the engine, spraying it out.
So, if I get a second hand engine, it could be a heap of **** also.. if I get a recon I'm guessing I'm looking pretty mega money?
There are a few other bits needing sorting, new exhaust is one, amounting to about £500 total, then new engine. Also apparently my boot floor showing signs of rusting. MOT due end of the month.
Advice? Opinions? Sympathy?
I'm thinking if it's showing rust, plus the cost of the other bits I'm better off getting rid and buying a new one, td5 perhaps.
If I go down this route, what could I expect it could be worth spares/repairs?
Oh, also anyone know if a soft wrap around bull bar from my disco 300 would fit onto a td5?
Just bought two crates of beer to cheer myself up :beer2:
