Today's tale is a tale of two halves.
She went off yesterday to be given some needed tlc from the LR loving mechanic . No, honestly, he loves them! Weird boy
She got lots done Remember the whistle? Sorted. Hairline crack in exhaust = nice new part.
Two front wishbones done. Squeal from new brake pads sorted.
However! Whilst fixing the exhaust he saw other issues. Oil in the intercooler pipe. Oh bugger! Seals are gone on turbo
Whilst searching for brake squeal something else popped up. Of course it did it's land rover product. The rear plates and discs are buggered. Oh well.
Subframe also needs a bit of welding.
Oh and not forgetting the rose bushes for hubs!
It's a good job I love her and he is a masochist mechanic
Nearly forgot: anyone used any of the recon'd turbos from Ebay. Especially those coming out of Germany?
