Absolutely nowhere close ! ;)

Portsmouth, Dover, Dunkirk, France, Belgium, Holland, Germany, Poland, Lithaunia, and finally Latvia. About 1600 miles in all. Still here. Guess how many Hippos I saw on the journey ? :rolleyes:

Have you considered little end (or big end) bearings at all ?

No, it's an air flow sensor and no oil should be in that part of the system. Just seal it as well as possible using insulating tape etc.

How is it driving ? Just try your hardest to ensure none or as little as possible air can enter the broken union.

Regrinding the valves with the head still on would be a miracle :eek:

DOH ! :p

My 10 plate Civic, 2.2TDCi so far has given me 52.4mpg over 4500 miles, since I have had it. :D

And how much does 1/2 a Hippo weigh ? :confused::bounce:

Although glow plugs are not relied upon so much in common rail diesels (as opposed to those that have a diesel distributor pump), as mentioned, always a great diagnostic step for not much dosh.:drum:

I have a 7 year old Ifor Williams unbraked trailer whose MGW is 750kg, so I'm not sure about - "Trailers built after 1989 legally require auto-reverse brakes and a hydraulic over-run hitch".

If it was me, the very first thing I'd do is check for +ve 12v at the glow plug rail. If this is present, I would change the glow plugs for new. Always a great diagnostic move to diagnose diesel cold start issues. Oh, and you might try here too - Introduce Yourself - Land Rover Zone :rolleyes:
