    Adelaide Help

    Ok new here and new in town.
    just spent the last few years thumping around Russia in a GWM, LOL that was fun-- NOT so from -30 to +40 and a problem

    as its a long weekend, who can I contact on Tuesday, ( or sooner) head gasket for a 95 diesel disco??

    please please

    I am in a bit of a flap, 20 month old kid and nothing sorted ( house furniture etc etc) oh and a wife.

    Cheers

    British 4wd's will post out parts. They will be open on Monday but it might take a couple of days to get to you.

    I am sure Triumph Rover Spares would do it, try them on 8384 6933.

    I know the bloke that runs the Mitcham Motor Garage, he might be interested, I don't have the number offhand.

    You could also try Geoff Mockford from Sovereign Motors. He has a reasonable stock of common 300Tdi parts, and I'd be thinking he'd have a head gasket. (08) 8231-1233. They are in Angus St in the city.

    Cheers

    thought i should slap in an update

    i rang Geoff Mockford from Sovereign Motors, first choice because they were closer, said he was busy would call me back, still waiting??

    rang TRS, they just said come on down, got them to check every thing over as I had just got the thing.

    Now on the drive down she didn’t over heat, I mentioned that and that it may not be a head gasket, the response was that it would be.

    they rang back next day, to say that it wasn’t head gasket, just the overflow bottle was shot, full marks to them they could have said nothing and made more bucks out of me.

    but what they did do was, new disks all round and pads, timing belt and idler, a few seals up front, doughnut, all fluids filters etc and a new windscreen fitted for $ 2200, im happy she hasn’t missed a beat since and that 3600 klm now.

    TRS I would recommend, they are busy though, but they know there stuff for sure
