Well, finally found the time to replace the Turbo on the Disco I. I really can't praise the service at TurboActive enough... very fast and efficient delivery of the new turbo and good information with it.

However, on the test drive suffered a large loss of power and oil smoke plumes out the back. On investigation, a rocker cover stud had worked itself loose and was both ****ing out oil and the rocker bar had come loose, after a roadside fix the engine was running...

Wouldn't it be nice if that was the end of the story. However, there is now a loud rattle coming from the water pump. So I guess thats the next job, tempted to take it to a diesel engine specialist and get everything checked out now as too much is going wrong.

MOT due Saturday, not sure i'll be back on-road by then...
