    Thanks very much for the replies. I am still trying to source a refurb one locally, but may import from UK for around $500. I'd even consider a chinese one but five seems to be the minimum order (they couldn't be any worse than the original). I've seen the video on how to do it, and a few years ago would have pinned the ears back and gone for it. I live in Echuca and already get a BMW serviced over in Shep, and I drive through Romsey en route to the big smoke, so will check out those recommendations. Thanks again for all the help.

    I am not sure how they would recondition one of these as the rubber is one of the things that fails.
    I would suspect TRS are getting one with a reasonable rubber then replacing the bearing.
    As they have a finite lifespan I would suspect you will be doing it all over again in the future.

    A new one is winging its way from the UK for $448 (incl freight). When I get some free time I'll have a lash at installing it and advise how I went.

    EGR kit and silicone hoses £78

    I thought I might as well do a few other things at the same time while the hands are dirty, like replace the front crankshaft oil seal, blank the EGR, and replace a few gaskets. The EGR kit includes the blue intercooler replacement hoses and at £78 I thought was pretty good value, considering that locally I'd seen the EGR kit for some $139 and the blue hose kit for $200.

    E.G.R Blanking & Silicone Hose Kit Discovery 2 Td5 Engine (Britpart) DA1109DIS Island 4x4 - Specialists in Land Rover and Range Rover Parts and accessories for all models. UK and worldwide mail order.

    I noticed that all the radiators are clogged with spinifex so I'll take them all right out and give them a blast down at car lovers (I've got a Karcher but our storm water goes into the Murray- the crap off the disco makes the murray crays taste funny).
