Mainly a wrecker but they do servicing as well. I have had good service from them for parts but no idea of their servicing.

You broken down again - hope it is not the new engine Confused

Australia 2007 Discovery 3 TDV6 HSE Auto Stornoway GreyDiscovery 3

Thanks Gary ... the car has been brilliant for the whole trip. A couple of niggles only.... lower steering uj bound up after heavily corrugated roads but seems to have found its second wind. Found that side-steps don't make very good rocksliders and when they bend they eventually take off the lower door trim.

My problem is that I keep having trouble with the small turbo hose falling off from vibration and (thought unrelated) leaks in the pressurised oil feed pipe to the turbo (although new seal and properly torqued). I have finally put 1&2 together and realised that I probably bent or damaged the front prop shaft when I put in the new engine. I worked out that theory in Esperance so came across the Nullabor thinking that the turbo oil feeder might snap or vibrate loose. Ideally would wait another 1,000 odd km (on top of 12000) until I get home but my nerves can't take anymore. If I'm right then I wonder what my front diff and transfer case look like ... time to go to the cricket and get lathered and forget! Unfortunately weather looks dodgy down here ... spotty play / dead out field predicted ... we need another spinner!

Digging up an old thread here, BUT...
I highly recommend UK Auto Spares in St Mary's. Matt's a great bloke and absolutely knows his stuff.
