Yeah I think the hub is still an issue.
It's my colleagues rather than mine and I think the potential £700 bill has put him off of working on or thinking about it just now.
Is the email address you have for Dave just Dave@sjscycles.com?
I reckon a thorough degrease and relube might bring it back to life but he's not too sure about putting anything not strictly branded Rohloff near the hub as the manual says not to :S
Yeah I'd seen the videos, found them via another route, just without a source for the bits, there's little to be gained by stripping it down any further right now.

@TheShipwright
@M_V I'm reasonably sure he can service the lump. I had quite a few conversations with him when he was working on my hub and we discussed him going to their factory for training etc. He also told me a story about resucitating a hub that had been really badly abused was effectively dead.
However all that said if the hub is still an issue then I'd still say Dave's the best person to talk to and ignore me.
Is the hub an issue still?
Incidentally have you seen these?
