No worries mate, I'd be careful with puddles like that though in future, a diesel won't cut out in water like a petrol will just suck water instead [emoji32][emoji43]

Also meant to add, sometimes when I'm about to turn the key to start it nothing happens none of the lights dim it's just like I have turned the key at all, if I turn off and on it will start, I had thought that maybe it was the ignition barrel, don't know if this is related to what happened today, i...

Thanks mate I thought as much there is mist around where is connects into the top of the intercooler I had replaced the o ring seals on all the joints previously I noticed that the new ones were green so maybe they found they were perishing, anyway I just put a new intercooler in as I was getting a ...

Cheers
