Second (150km NW of Mt Isa)a stone under the bottom pulley shredding the belt driving the water pump and badly overheating the engine - so hot in fact that the alloy head had melted away from the valve seats. So over $12000 in engine repairs for both. Interestingly both Perth and Mt Isa had German trained VW specialists.
