Took 5 glow plugs out and none snapped. All 6 were dead MY08 130K. Crankcase breather was a pig to get out. It will go back together tomorrow, too wet and dark outside now.

Bet you need to sit down with a stiff drink after all that! I'd of been a nervous wreck with every turn!

Fitted shire Fab rock sliders and pro speed compressor guard after buzzweld treating the sills, technically last year now.
New Year’s Eve Washed all the salt off from the recent bad weather- looked like new again until I nipped out to pick eldest son up - now covered in mud from the country lanes, but never mind can always wash it again next year

After changing the nsr height sensor last week it was still floating up and down on the 4x4 info screen with iid showing the values going down to -144 randomly amongst the floating. So today swapped over the wiring loom to the height sensor.
I was also going to have a look at the park brake but spent ages trying to get out an over tightened torx on the disc. Managed to get it out eventually after lots of swearing, replaced with a new one now!
