:bigcry: Still hope it something not too serious. Can't imagine it being the VANOS mate. VANOS went on mine about 4 years ago, maybe more and it was t sound lumpy or anything like it really. More rattly at the front of the engine that anything else, wee bit drop in power at the top end.

Keep us posted and hopefully you should get her back before may.

I've only got 12 days after getting home to leaving for Europe to get like taxed, new brake pads fitted and bedded in and a decent run so I'm cutting it fine and really hoping she's in good health.
