I got the guys in the machine shop where I work to flatten the flanges with some wet and dry and a flat plate because I could visably see a bow in the flange face. I have never had any problems since.

Agree with Nez in getting the ends re-faced, particulary the turbo end.I had an original version H&S version on my old MY01 that wouldnt seal but after having it re-faced it was fine.

If you put a metal rule accross the flanges you will see which one's need flatting. Get a machine shop to get them flat before you refit.
