Digger,
I notice Land Rover Australia responded to Mrs Digger on the book of Faces..... the optimist in me hopes that starts a positive discussion... ( But then, he's still not convinced the tooth fairy isn't real either )
If your big mate from Whyalla can't convince you to take his assistance.... I'll have spare seats in the D4 with me.... maybe not as much fun as taking your own vehicle....
But you should know it's not just you that would be sad if you can't make the trip.... quite a few of us would be.
You've helped out enough blokes around here.... maybe it's your turn to be receiving rather than giving.... .
The Land Rover Experience day is probably buggered..... but keep your options open for the rest. [wink11]
Stay in touch, I'm sure we can work something out between us all.
Hey!.... I just had another thought..... Tombie, you might be able to give me a bit of advice here.....
You reckon an SDV6 D4 would drag a Magna over the dunes on Googs?.... :wasntme:
:Rolling:
Digger, all four turbo's have failed since the engine swap?.Tell the dumb arses at the dealership to check the oil feed and drain :soapbox:. Pat
They have Pat. including doing the Oil Pump recall...
I have a suspicion that somewhere in the block either opens or closes up a clearance somewhere once it gets warm.
Oil feed and oil return were checked for flow and pressure last time..
It's definitely a starvation issue though.
It's got me thinking, there's a bit of swarf or debris of some kind. circulating around in an oil channel that occasionally blocks an opening. Something like that could be almost impossible to find and very difficult to remove.
If it was my problem to fix it, I'd flush, clean and dry the oil ways, then blow hem out with high pressure air. Even after that I wouldn't be confident of success.

I honestly don't know. Modern casting methods enable far more complicated oil ways than I have dealt with. So I really couldn't say.Quote:

Sorry i cant offer anything constructive, except the lemon laws are there to be used.
