cheers Tony, dont suppose you have any super program that tells you how long it should be then?

ok, so mine decided to seize and on stripping it i noticed the exhaust impeller is slightly damaged (on or two fins are bent at the ends)
its back together and now works, although whistles as expected (due to damage) under load, however some queries:
1. can it still be used ok in this unbalanced state?
2. can you get replacment exhuast impellers, can anyone recommend a supplier???
i know really the 'proper' answer is change it but as a complete turbo unit is £455 + VAT or closer to £800 from a dealer i am hesitant to do so if it can be used as is.
yes for £500 i can live with the whistling.
PS driving 700miles without a working turbo is not an enjoyable experience! - mpg suffered a bit as well!!!!
the cause of the initial problem has now been resolved - dont ask.

I am after anyone with a td5 having a quick look uder the bonnet please.
having just dismantled my turbo and put it back together and would like to check the length of the wastegate actuator rod is correct.
(i know i should have measured it before taking it apart)
if possible please could some count the number of exposed threads on their actuator rod from where they start to the nut?
many thanks in advance.
on a side note i pressume if the rod is too short this means the gate stays closed for longer or is it the other way around?

i could (!) have one for you, he doesnt know it yet but was meant to be crewing my team mates vehicle, that vehicle now doesnt have a working engine which means firslty i could be on my own and secondly his winch bitch will be free. i will keep you posted if hes still definatley going to be free, but iwont know until early nest week.
we are hopefully getting the engine sorted (changed) next week but time is ticking away!!!

easy peasy i reckon Dan, so we off to Scotland to get this motor?

so, Reads 90 - and it is treated with.................................................?????

from memory on what i have heard once td5 have been run dry once there is a high tendancy for the fuel pump to need replacement.
less than ideal.
i think the squealing maybe the start of its departure, but for your sake i hope not.

i thought the sensor on the T box dictated the hi/low pedal response and the one on top of the clutch was just the anit-shunt function (eg held engine revs high when clutch was depressed rather than letter them drop as per normal)
-
no worries Moo5 maybe another time, Mark (Bos) just confirm nearer the time.
anyone else up for a jaunt?
anyone fancy a trip out after Tonys' birthday bash?
-
very smart. cant say i suffer too much from the leg room problem although now i expect i will notice the hand brake more having seen this.

-
very good Nige
-
sorry for not being with it but where is Bures Pit?
-
put the hand brake on and let the clutch out (slowly) in third/second from stationary if it stalls cluth works or it doesnt clutch is slipping
-
no Wills right, maybe not lazy just a different priority of jobs to do first...........................
like suspension, doors (talking of which do you want those other doors still Will, complete againnow, available next week)
the allen bolts need tightening and i need to pad out the inside as they go tight but still wobble and just havent got around to it.
at least they are better than the Wolf ones which have 4 M4 or so screws on the back that you use to tighten them onto the ball joint and they never stay tight. In my exp anyway.
-
neither of mine wobble
wing mirrors however, they wobble alot and after a short fast trip you can see the asphalt very clearly in them

david@llama4x4.co.uk - i should have remembered really, i think i ahve the phone number somewhere which i will try and find. WO.
