    Is there supposed to be a liner within the thrust bearing, because if it is not "snug"on the shaft it may be possible to pull the bearing through as it is off centre, struggling for ideas, on the ramp five weeks now, box in and out 3 times!

    Hi there folks, just purchased a P38,

    any advice welcome, P38, after running 20-30 mins the hand book and exclamation mark come up on the lcd display, is this going to be a dash strip, or a simpler fix? already rebuilding the series 3 and trying to keep the missus' disco 1 going, obviously too much time on my hands! cheers.
