Frosties are the best ever but that said i'd only make a gasket out of a frosties box if the occasion really called for it, I'd agree wit Matt, phone somewhere like Brookwells, they'll send you any gasket you want and it'll cost hardly anything. I have seen an empty pot noodle pot taped over the end of the front hubs on an 07 plate defender before so they could take the shafts out, but that was in the middle of the desert in Morroco so i'd say the occasion called for it!

I had the same with mine a while back, took the brakes all to pieces, made sure none of the seals in the axle where leaking any oil onto the brakes, cleaned all the brakes up & replaced all the caliper pistons & seals(which where absolutly shot), job done, problem sorted! B)

Thanks Mike, Will do

Hmm interesting! Yellow, did you find that the variable vein turbo made a distinct difference? Like a big enough difference to warrent spending the extra cash? I've heard that the variable vein turbo's are less reliable & have a shorter life expectancy.....?

That was not exactly the response I was looking for AlliSport do do turbo's they even do a VNT one for 300tdi's with variable veins B) but they reckon theres not enough room for a VNT on a 200tdi

As my turbo imploded at the weekend I need a new one and was thinking of getting the AlliSport uprated turbo for a 200tdi. Anyone had one or know anything about them?? Cheers, Maria
