Mileage?

Age - registration date?

 

My 33k mile has just undergone a full water pump, cam and watts a face replacement. Ablate a little more expensive than doing it at home, I am not a mechanic wielding spanner man,  - its a necessary 5 year / 48 000 mile event.

 

The seals in water pump /pipes et al could have worn through - vibrations can cause micro tears in any material.

Far cheaper than replacing the engine and the inconvenience of the day in the 'clinic'.

 

Water pump goes = damaged engine

Cam failure = damaged catastrophic engine

 

Errr lots of wonga!
