We just had a leak in the inlet manifoild on the 6th cylinder. Under load it sounded like a larger turbo wine.
It was the 3rd velicle they had seen with the issue, around the same km (300,000). I was glad I was not the 1st guy as they took ages to find his.
I also got the injector pipes replaced. This did not happen at 150K, and one of the above vehicles had issues with theirs. Did it as a precaution, but it certainly smoothed the idle and I reakon she is good for another 300K.
Other than that I can't complain. I also treated it to a new cluch (it was original i.e. lasted 300K). They did not beleive me at first but neither did they believe I'm on my 1st set of replacement brake pads. Had to prove it with the service records.

Is that secret 42? Any Douglas Adams fan would understand.

Yes it is. It's been disappointing in one way that in 9 years only 3 people are in an enlightened level of existence.
