180000 how did u guess?

it was the HG there wasnt a lot of gasket left between no4 cylinder and no8 pushrod

ran a straight edge over the head and seem pretty flat pistons and bores look brand new once i cleaned the carbon off

just waiting for a mate to arrive with his torque wrench so we can nip the head up re-fit the rocker gear and fill it with coolant, then it'll be time for a test run

Thank you Steve.

My 200Tdi did the same at 92,000 miles.
In exactly the same place.No 4 to pushrod.
