So, here's a new one for you all.
Any of you who have been reading my posts about my poorly Ducato will know that it's with a so called diesel 'specialist' to locate the issue.
Today, after 10 days of head and butt scratching, they've managed to get it running, but only on 3 cylinders.
The mechanic monkey had the following account "so we blanked no3 and got it running, it made a rattling noise like a cam rattle, so I shouted to him in the front, oi leave off the revs, at the same time there was a graunching sound and now the engines locked solid, it's siezed mate, you need a new engine"
So, it cut out on the road 3 weeks ago with no rattles, adverse noise etc, they trace the issue to wiring to the fuel pressure regulator, get it running, and manage to sieze the engine and tell me it's my problem???
:bang::bang:
Trading standards? Anyone got any experience of this?
