    Oh and how long does it take for the new pistons rings etc to bed in? Will motor run even more sweetly then??

    Sherlock Justin... thanks for your input. What do you reckon about this part of my question?

    (A bit like questions of vitamins and omega 3 fatty acids and other neutroceuticals... and how long before I can weight bear properly after a cruciate ligament repair ...)

    OK, from one Dr to another, I can recommend that moderate use of Omega3's and certain vitamin supplements can and will enhance lifespan and efficiency. And as regards the damage to your knee joint, I can say that a period of exercise within the limits of pain for no less than 5000km should see an improvement. During this time, fluid should be drained at least once, and associated filters replaced also. After this intense rehab process, you may then resume normal 10,000km/ 6 monthly checkups.



    I have a great friend and customer of mine who is an orthopeadic surgeon, when He rings me he addresses me as 'Dr of Rangies' - as he has had about 3 at last count over the years, and currently owns a nice Vogue LSE softdash with all the toys...and I attempt to keep them running reliably for him even after all the offroad punishment he dishes out to them

    jeeze, I duck out to get an icy pole and order up some diffs and all the fun stuff gets done.....

    and who says the new rovers dont smoke....

    you should see big red on full steam when I go for the noisey pedal now that shes had a proton energy pill.......

    Ive seen russian tanks with twin blown head gastkets and the smoke generators on flat out that blow less smoke........

    Not that I hang around to watch it much, Im too busy shifting gears.......

    (just to keep it thread relevent and not a hijack)

    I'll back it all so far and the tdi off boost sounds like a kubota tractor when they are at idle. and yes the newer cats for diesels can be used on any diesel.
