makes you bloody wonder duntit? but he was dealer trained so maybe he still thinks he,s there  :-/
he said the blow is caused by the studs snapping and letting the gaskets come away  :-/
it was £250 labour and £50 for the gaskets and a set of studs but it was for both sides  ::)
once this is done i just dont know what will be next  :(
ive never had a car with so many well known reliability problems and such a pig to work on  >:(
