Don't they do it in the £50 :p

Got the old gal back as promised today. Replacement FIP fitted and no more diesel leaks( Oh please gods of Land Rover heed my prayer). The old one had been messed with, there was no woodruff key on end of shaft when old one taken off

Hiya pal Hows it hanging. Still got withdrawal symptoms:p:D:p

It's called down and dirty :D

Do they send a £10 note aswell:):D

The guy who owned the P38 I had the engine out of was a welder and bit of a bodger. I wonder if he'd tried some kind of repair in the past and now its finally let go?. I'm fortunate I am getting a known good replacement and all done at mates rates.

Cheers Mark:)

Unless you took it on a track day:rolleyes::rolleyes: :)

Nice simple fix that. Don't be too harsh on him. We've all dropped a clanger now and again :D

Cutting a key blade and programming a key fob are 2 different skills entirely

I've come across that in the past where it's been swapped for ordinary relay

+1 on the door latches. Had the same on mine, replaced door latch/actuator and problem solved. I do believe the MGF had the same door latch and far cheaper than the same one from JLR
