Barry Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 This is what me and my team are up to in the workshop today. 5.0 Range Rover in for head gaskets. Another mechanic elsewhere fitted a water pump and stuck everything with horrible black silicon. This silicon went round the engine, blocked everything and overheated the engine. I removed the engine, cleaned all the silicon out of it, skimmed the heads, levelled out the block and fitted new gaskets. Have the engine back in the vehicle now and hope to have it out of the workshop tomorrow night. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barry Posted August 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Porsche Cayenne in to have a set of rim protectors fitted. These are a great job. Protect the rims from damage if you rub against a kerb etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaurav Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Looks like you guys are extra busy today, being a saturday. Surprise to see that Rangie is still there, I am sure owner must be having few extra cars in his garage that he stopped caring about delays on repair work, lol. Btw, whenever you are free let me know how much it cost for rim protector and how long time required for fixing this on my Mustang? Let's root for each other & watch each other grow.

Barry Posted August 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Saturday is just another day for me. Ill text you about the rim protectors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Posted August 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Retail on rim protectors is 700 dhs but I can offer them to Carnity members for 600 dhs fitted. They take either a morning or an evening to fit. My guy has done quite a few sets of them now so is a real pro at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
