Will i get import duty buying a car party from S.Korea?

As title, car has crapped it, local dealer want £488 for the part, ebay is £150 from S.Korea (genuine part).

Will i get a import duty bill before/after delivery? (More concerned about the extra time it will take than anything.)

Customer asks "Why is their plastic clicky crap operating my turbo?"

It's me, i'm the customer.

Why the FUCK is their plastic tat not operating my turbo?

I say "my turbo", this is my mothers car, i'm borrowing it while she runs her current Nissan into the ground (it won't take long, i've borrowed it five times and it broke down three of them!)

Then again i used my dads Renault a few years ago and killed that before i even got it home (cambelt), maybe i'm the problem?

Back on point, what was wrong with a vacuum line and bellows to operate a wastegate?

2016 2.2 Anybody replaced the electronic turbo actuator?

The plastic teeth on my turbo actuator let go mid drive today, horendous grinding noise every few seconds, audible over the engine running.

If i unplug it the car is down on power and won't rev over 2,500rpm, so i can't just ignore it.

I've seen a few guides on replacing it and it's relatively straight forward but some guide claim the new unit needs calibration to be sure it's opening the wastegate at the right time. That's a new one on me but i've never had an electrically opened turbo before.

So, if you've done this job, did it need plugging at a workshop to make the new unit play nicely or is it just a matter of swapping the old for the new and just driving away?

Ta.

(p.s. Why the fuck is their plastic in my turbo actuator?!)

Which dispensaries have oils?

Helping a friend out with med cannabis to get their appitite back after chemo, but she has trouble with smell of regular cannabis.

Do any of the UK dispensaries have THC oils available?

Thanks

Did med cannabis increase your appetite?

A friend is about to start chemo and I know it beats the hell out of your appetite.

They’re already built like a racing snake and I’m trying to find some way of getting more calories into them. They’ve never been a big eater and have always been thin/lightly built.

I’ve got them a selection of Ensure Plus flavours to try and find a preference for when they’re actually having their rounds of chemo but I’m looking for something to improve their appetite between rounds so they’ve got some meat on their bones.

Soooooo, did your prescription give you a better appetite and if so is there a particular strain I should point them towards?

Much appreciated.
