So after pulling off the road with a knocking noise, towed to first garage, a week later still not sure what it is but has new cambelt kit fitted and suggested needs new engine!! Thanks for your business that will be £670!! Retrieved her on a low loader to garage number 2 good guy, 10mins later sounds like big end bearings, need a new engine!
Just waiting on delivery of a big end fail engine now (doner). As long as block is good planning to rebuild this one and swap out. So heres the question, as this is my first engine rebuild, any tips or observations to look out for? Any sources of good sensibly priced parts??
Took delivery of the engine stand today, engine here tomorrow
Cheers

Hi @Richiep

I personally am not sure on the D3 about engines, Some poeple who may know a direction to point you for further info on these beasts as they have recently become owners themselves are @gstuart and @biggeeeee .

It also may help if you put a post in the Discovery section as it may get seen more.

Cheers and Good luck.

thanks for that, bit of a newbie found the disco threads now and reposted.
Thanks very much
