Welcome to the forum xplcitwhips,

You certainly have had a harsh introduction to X-Type ownership! Good to hear you found useful information here to help with the engine transplant.

Hope it's running smoothly again.

Enjoy the forum.

Graham

A little bad start with the x type but at the end of the day I'm happy with it. It was a grate experience for me.

Its still running good can't complain. Plus the wife loves it. Actually she pretty much took the car from me.lol..
