    Disco Tdi needs help, Goondiwindi...Any recommendations?

    Hi, Hoping someone here can recommend a LR friendly workshop at Goondiwindi, or at least one who is honest and has good workmanship. A fellow from down here has pushed the little Tdi a bit too hard towing, in high temps, and is now experiencing the pressurisation of a head gasket leak...

    It would be much appreciated if you could PM me / post info so I can TXT it to him tonight or first thing in the morning.

    Don't know the name of the Mechanic in Inglewood, about 40k east of Gundy, but there is always a defender there, so a good sign

    Will google to try and find out.

    So no good pulling up at the Rosewood Road gate with a Landy/Millard roadtrain and asking "Where's Dave's workshop?"
