TDv6 Failure Survey

After becoming the latest victim (of at this stage suspected turned bearings) I compiled this survey to try and get more information on the scope of this problem internationally.

Please participate in this survey if you suffered the dreaded TDv6 failure, if you know people not registered here but also affected please share it with them.

The old girl is on her third engine...
* first ran a bearing (design failure in original engine)
* second had a failure of the water outlet on top of the engine (pls check yours)

Will compile it once we have some answers, guess it will take a few weeks.

Would it be worth including the 3.0 as they're suffering from the same problem
