I am very happy with my mtrack, I've had to ring them a few times (mainly because I've accidentally set it off!) and always got straight through to a very helpful person...
It's fully transferable between vehicles

Don't know if you've already checked this but on my td5 the solenoid feed wire crimp had corroded and filled up with gunk, same symptoms as you, easily fixed with a new crimp terminal and 2 mins with the emery cloth

The rear cross members are a bit different between tdi and td5, but if that's being replaced anyway just fit the appropriate one... If it's been in a crash definitely check the measurements are within the factory specs to the nearest foot...
Also if you can get it galved once it's been welded up

Since when was aluminium treadplate bulletproof? Surely trading standards can get rid of this hideous creation? I can't find the vomiting emoticon thing!
It's the diameter that's the main difference, when I changed mine in sure I had to unscrew the end off the old one and transfer it to the new one, it might account for your new one looking shorter?

Yup just means you can accurately control the depth of the cut and get the disc most of the way round, if you went straight up you'd either cut the box or only cut 30% of the arm

I've asked about this before, apparently britpart do supply some oem stuff that they source but isn't made by them, I've not had any problems with the 'oem' or suffix G stuff yet, unlike pretty much everything else from Sh*tpart

First time I did it on my old 110 it took 3 pry bars jacked up on 3 bottle jacks like a Mercedes sign so the whole weight of the car was on it and beating it with a large hammer for 2 hours at which point it let go with an almighty bang, second time on my new 110 I just carefully slit it with a 1mm disc in a spiral shape to avoid the splines and it tapped off in 2 mins... I'd definitely recommend the disco conversion, just make sure you defo ordered the disco bars as obviously they're different lengths!
