Another one.
That's two on here on the last 24 hrs. There's someone in the "for sale" section with an "S" type for sale though mileage is a bit high.
What mileage is on your D3?yµ (idµ - eAµ) ψ=mψ

Mine croaked at 111000
All the belts changed, Timing cover with new oil pump, Oil changed on the button
Luck of the draw I guess.
My friendly local garage have already sourced a replacement lump so that when the COW is returned to me later today the transplant can begin

Luck of the draw indeed, I've never personally seen one let go at that mileage but I know they have do so at much much lower.
At least you have an option besides a new block, best of luck with it. yµ (idµ - eAµ) ψ=mψ
