Pleased you have it sorted m8, strange how quickly frustaration disappears when you get back behind the wheel.

If you think you're happy now wait until you get the first thousand miles out of the way The worst five days I've spent in mine

Do you have to run it in @ 4k RPM again? Had a new engine in my car (block pistons crank etc) and I damn was that frustrating!
Enjoy!

Banshi,
I can't wait till the 1000 miles are up,only another 920 to go.
Chuckster,
I do have to run it in,and it will be a bit frustrating.But not half as frustrating as driving a vectra for the last 6 weeks!

Oliver,

Pleased to here it, I've had my P1 in the shop for 9 weeks now. Cam belt went and took out a couple of valves. Apparantly still waiting for parts from Japan. I've been told another 3 weeks, I havn't been so frustrated before in my life. How much testing did they do after they had rebuilt the engine?

Oakers,
You have my sympathy.As for the testing I'm not exactly sure how long they test it for.I know they run it then have it back on the ramps to check everything is okay,and as far as I know,if it is then the car will be back with you.
Hope you get it back soon.

Wilf I was very close to returning to the Dark side.
