    EYP 101280 if you want the LR number. They are 50p each !! Any black or painted self tapper would suffice.

    Held with Torx self tapping screws. All 6 are same size. Can measure one but about 3mm estimate.

    Diesel wash I guess. Maybe 2 injectors are well stuck open ?? I put a set of known working ones in and haven't looked at the ones that came out. One was missing anyway.

    Some photos: Turbo didn't look very well. Bellhousing, engine both soaked with oil. Head looks ok, scores in the bores !!! Looks like cylinder 1 and 2 have had a prolonged wash !!

    Not sure what you are trying to do. Did you use the bolt suitably adjusted to get leverage to pull the UJ yoke off ?? If so then the bolt is sacrificial and might be bent but never had thread damage. How did you remove the VCU from UJ ??

    Most need an air compressor and application gun. Don't have such things sadly. Unless we could borrow ?? Cavity wax seems the thing, but high pressure needed for the distances.

    Before you condemn the top mount or bearing, whip the coolant bottle off and check the top nut is tight. Allen key in centre to hold. I had one that needed a new lock nut and unscrewed on its own !!
