Had a price of main dealer out of interest, they quoted £600 and said job time 2 and half hours they reckon they just lower box not take out, will find out sat. 05 TDV6,"S" in all colourcoded Zermatt silver,7 seats winter pack HK 6cd stereo,Dual climate,Xenons,

Mine started with what sounded like a turbo whistle, then developed to a blow, you can't really see it, it's hidden on top of gearbox . 05 TDV6,"S" in all colourcoded Zermatt silver,7 seats winter pack HK 6cd stereo,Dual climate,Xenons,

Didn't notice when it was whistling, but it has lost some now it's blowing. Nothing drastically noticeable though, 05 TDV6,"S" in all colourcoded Zermatt silver,7 seats winter pack HK 6cd stereo,Dual climate,Xenons,

Mine lost considerable power espcially at roundabouts trying to pull off then finding somebody right on your tail,searched the forums for egr faults and gearbox faults.The car is a completley diffrent animal now and as smooth as they come well worth the money to get it done.

Link pipe all done, was impossible for us to do with box in whoever does must have tiny hands, anyway out came the box, took abou 5 n half hours all in, not counting the time wasted trying with it in situ, so not too bad I suppose, just still can't believe it went a week after the box was out for clutch. Not even a sniff of a blow then. Sods law eh, then if all that wasn't bad enough, just left workshop on way home and BOING!!!!! Now it needs ------------- filling up with fuel again  05 TDV6,"S" in all colourcoded Zermatt silver,7 seats winter pack HK 6cd stereo,Dual climate,Xenons,
