Damn that's not good. Have you got breakdown cover?
10-04-2013, 11:35 AM

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..

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...

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.

wasnt surprised till I realised its a hdi :o Wishes for more power...
10-04-2013, 06:18 PM
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.
10-04-2013, 06:22 PM
....he may well have a huge hole to fill too!!
Wishes for more power...

Liquid metal could come in handy...
10-04-2013, 06:23 PM
Tom if its shat a rod, if hes done it well it will need more than just a rod and piston!
