Fuuuuck.
For realZ?
RE: Its finally happened - Scott - 10-04-2013
Damn that's not good. Have you got breakdown cover?
RE: Its finally happened - Arron - 10-04-2013
Hope this is a troll.
Did it spit it on boost/idle? Gutted for you dude i realy am, because now it makes me wonder how reliable a bigger blower on an HDi..
RE: Its finally happened - Niall - 10-04-2013
Gutted for you if this is real but not surprised after the problems you've been having lately!
RE: Its finally happened - darrenjlobb - 10-04-2013
A bigger blower will be un reliable on any car...Putting a bigger turbo on anything will seriously up the output of the motor, you have to expect things to fail...
RE: Its finally happened - Poodle - 10-04-2013
What he said ^^^ Same as any engine mod that boosts power output, common sense really.
Bad luck dude, couldnt have got much further from home.
Hope youre alright getting it back, give us a buzz if I can help at all.
RE: Its finally happened - darrenjlobb - 10-04-2013

RE: Its finally happened - londondan86 - 10-04-2013

RE: Its finally happened - Chris_90 - 10-04-2013
If it is true that has to be the worst luck ever! Hope you get back ok, probably end up leaving car over there in a scrap yard surely no one will tow you back to the uk.

that sux....
wasnt surprised till I realised its a hdi :o
RE: Its finally happened - Toms306 - 10-04-2013
Dunno if its any help Jonny, but I have the rods/pistons from my HDi here...
I'm guessing you dont have engine stripping tools with you though.
RE: Its finally happened - Piggy - 10-04-2013
....he may well have a huge hole to fill too!!
RE: Its finally happened - Scott - 10-04-2013
Liquid metal could come in handy...
RE: Its finally happened - Niall - 10-04-2013
Tom if its shat a rod, if hes done it well it will need more than just a rod and piston!

I can confirm that this works really well at plugging holes in engine blocks!
RE: Its finally happened - Toms306 - 10-04-2013
Fair enough, I was only trying to be helpful (I know, makes a change for me!)
