Just out of interest, what did the rebuild consist of and if you don't mind posting, how much did it cost. Might be good info for others.

starting from the top, recon heads, rings, main bearings, big end bearings, lifters, oil pump, timing chain, cam & cam end bearing, all new seals and gaskets, new set of head bolts, new thermostat, all up $4,750 including fluids & labour.
Comes with 12 months/20000 km warranty.

yeah I'm happy with them, its a pretty well known Rover workshop who recently moved to Rooks Rd in Vermont (Melbourne)
I used to bring my first Disco there in the early 2000's, now we use them for my partner's Disco and my Rangie.
