    Thanks for the advice Dave I'm going to continue in getting it fixed as when it's done it's a vehicle I'd like to keep for a few years. I have already had £350 refunded for a getting the air suspension sorted. Since I threatened legal action they seem to been quite helpful Fingers crossed

    Need a new cylinder head :-(

    Looking on Turner Eng website the re-manufactured heads go through a pretty inclusive indepth process. As for all of the other parts I think i'll be using the ones Ive already got In all honesty i'm hoping to be able to with new but its alot of cash by the time labour is added
