Had you previously had the cambelt changed?
I believe they have a 5 year/72,000 mile suggested limit.
I've been reasonably lucky so far because the gearbox went just inside the warranty period.  I've never trusted it since then even though the second one has now done  50,000.  The van has actually done 88.5k so far so another service coming up.  I will probably hold fire till early February and get service and MOT done all in one go.  Should be about 91,000 by then (unless it falls to bits first).

Sorry to hear that.
Let's hope that your run of difficulty has now ended.

I've a T5 lwb and when i replace it i'll get a swb. They have a greater carrying capacity and your poles will fit in it perfectly. I have to extend my poles about a foot so they don't hit the bulk head then the back doors when i go and stop. Theres enough room in a lwb for another tank,so a bit of a waste really. Get a 5 cylinder one if you can 130bhp or 174bhp.
