    If you'd asked a Mod, we could have changed the options.

    I think that I remember reading a post on this a while back, might have been yours.

    Anyway, whilst your poll does get information, it is not the complete picture, you have the number of failures by type, eg, TD5 Auto but it does not relate to the number of TD5 Auto ever sold or in service at the moment.

    Until you can get this information the poll results dont actualy relate to anything.

    Another, even better measure is to find out the total number of km's driven by all the poll options to date, and then find out when the faulres occured and using weibull analysis you can plot the findings with much mroe accuracy and using a recognised relaibility method that has statistical back up and meaning.

    sorry to pour water on you fire but thats what we do in the aviation industry, number of hours flown, number of failures, proper statistical methods and then it means some thing.

    even after the above, though I wish you luck and praise you for the efforts put in so far

    Also, I have checked mine and whilst I dont have greasable UJ's fitted, the aircon drain is not over the UJ, appears to have been moved in production? TD5 Auto, April 04 build

    Yeah OK, more accurcy was probably a bit of a long call how about more quantifiable - does that fit better?

    thats another issue with this poll. A few people have reaslised they have done that. I wonder how many havent realised. 60 odd people have voted.... seems a very high number to have had the issue.

    Correct - although I used vacuum hose (read more expensive)
