@@sleepycatpictures1176 Funnily enough Derek We the viewer r looking forward to seeing u do it. And obviously the BIG SMILE on Giddy Kippers face when you've completed it ☺️🤔☺️🤔☺️

@@AlanL200Truckman Sorry there will not be much to see, the garage is doing it. Halfords do a kit, and there is stuff online but by the time you have bought all the gear, it's cheaper just to go to the garage!

[@AlanL200Truckman]

@@sleepycatpictures1176 Ah yes, good point Derek. Makes more sense I guess, and definitely financial sense. I'm sure Giddy Kipper will tell us about it in the future. Av a great weekend. Hope yourself & Freda are feeling better by way of energy by the day. Alan L200

Hello Derek, glad to hear you are both getting better. My Daughter has just got over a bout of Covid and is now back at work. Nothing to do with this video, but after you re-built your TD5 Turbo, did you notice any improvement in performance. Mine has about the same number of miles on it and I was thinking of an update.

[@sleepycatpictures1176]

No, not really. I did the turbo because the engine was drinking it's own oil from the turbo seals. The cartridge change worked for a while then the head went again so overall performance went unnoticed. If you do update, I would recommend a full genuine replacement if possible.

Get your self down Halfords for a window screen chip repair kit , only £10.00 worked a treat for me .better than the big boys repair .

[@sleepycatpictures1176]

Thanks Roger. I'll look into that. I've noticed a kit on ebay too. Though in the end, it might be best left to the professionals!
