H2 (2004) Total Failure

[Biskxp]

2 problems......

1) The flywheel had come off but buggered the drive plate too

2) Parts are taking 10-14 days and I had to drive a Ford Fiesta on Sunday......

All I can say is thank god I did not take it into the main dealer. Last time I had a problem (a cat collapsed and was causing mis-fires due to the back pressure it) they charged me in excess of ?950 (about $1800) and took 3 weeks to get the parts in.

Wow that sucks, sorry to hear that, did they say why or how the flywheel came off?

Going to get a full report on it when I go pick it up. I was not even thrashing it at the time - was doing a steady 50mph - Though the previous day it had had a very fast run as I attempted to clear the outside lane of a motorway (see "Freeway", but smaller) but nothing that should have vaguely bothered it.

Just playing the waiting game now for the parts to come over then I can go and annoy BMW X5 and Range Rover Sport drivers again and my life will be complete. Also the school run is totally politically incorrect so will be doing that too!

and finally back on the road again. new drive plate, pump bush and seal.

One trouble of being in the UK is that parts take 2 weeks
