Collected it yesterday, new piston rings, valve stem seals. And an oil leek sorted.

Only took them 3 weeks to get it right :angry:

But I have a question, as I havent driven this car for a while now and cant remember what the engine sounds like :huh:

It sounds quite clicky at low revs, but it could be that everything needs to settle in before. After the engine is warm it does sound less clicky (sorry but I cant describe the noise any other way :lol: ) How does yours sound? I dont know anybody else with any near me so cant compare.

Fingers crossed with some conservative driving it will settle in, hit life a couple of times and there is no smoke :thumbsup: Good to have lift back :yes:

Also another bonus is that they have now given me a 12 month warenty on the engine, due to them having to do major work :thumbsup:

Hopefully this is sorted now so i can get used to drving it again ;)
