nothing too special but a simple one that makes a huge difference

Recent Caddy purchase didn't run right, and had oil collecting around the injectors. And sometimes diesel leaking from the return pipes. I also had a glow plug code on cylinder 1.

Bought a new rocker cover/gasket, new injector seals and new return pipes/o-rings. When removing the injectors, the last numpty that did some work have snapped one leg off the 3-4 injector clamp, so it wouldn't have been holding the injector down enough.

£100 in parts, 3 hours labour, and it's running sweet as sugar now. 250 miles later and no oil or diesel leaking.

Wow this is what I was looking for since I removed side panels from my Caddy maxi.
Where can I get those things? :D

@ron_jeremy, too bloody much mate Image but wanted it ever since I first saw it. Birthday present to myself! So worth it so far I absolutely love it, it was the screen mirroring function that really sold it to me, plus the amount of customisation options really make it!

@petrev thanks mate, I'm well happy with it!

@Jase14 the best Iv ever had is 71mpg, if you keep it below 60 and go extra careful on the throttle it's possible ImageImage
