Silly question
Does anyone have a 2000 hdi 2.0 lx family estate i can test drive?
Not remapped, i'm reading of remapped cars with shagged out lower mounts (just like mine) and i'm wondering if mine has already been done... I have nothing to compare it to but i gave it a beasting this morning off a roundabout going up hill and within 150 yards i was knocking 80mph with plenty more under the hoof... Most of this hill was on a bend too... Dairees it's the hill coming off the Rhymney roundabout from your way and heading back to asda.
In fact thats an idea for a bit of fun we can test the hpi v the hdi on the same roundabout... once you get your n/s/r slippery tyre sorted.

Re: Silly question
I mind once seeing the RUC (what is now PSNI) in a 406.
Looked something like this
Though for a while there they were having 406s used against them

Re: Silly question
All HDi's have nackered lower mounts. My 90bhp XUD and my HDi90 both had nackered lower mounts.
I changed all the mounts on the XUD and within 6 months it was back to square one!

Re: Silly question
I bought a new one on the assumption that mine would be knackered but it was, surprisingly, perfect.
