Well, its not good news.

The garage has taken the head off and its dropped two valves. The first valve has gone through the head and the other valve has gone through the block :-(

Second engine is on order and hopefully will be fitted by the end of the week.

Sorry for bombarding you with questions 001ben but I'm in the same boat. Basically I need new engine. So interested where did you source a D5 185bhp engine and how much did you pay also how much for labor to replace it. Regards
