Do a thread for each one in meets/shows. I'll come to that penkridge one next week
Yo wheel alignment looks out on the bimmer, just sayin
How you enjoying the D3? Seems way more practical than the DCPU was with the van and all that.
I'll post this here cuz it's not landy related and it's my fred so nerr
Discs and pads all round on the 1 series today for MOT next month

Rears were bad

Had to kick the wheels off and clean the hubs up, everything was well rusted up
Anyway, main concern is this wear on both rear tyres. This is the worse of the 2, cords are showing. Is this just from alignment being out of whack or something more sinister??

Can't believe I've missed this
I'll check for play in all the rear suspension, hoping I'm just in for 2 new tyres and an alignment!
Get your tracking done by all means but from the look of that tyre I'd say its been run flat so the rim is putting direct pressure on the outside of the tyre, usually tracking wear is over a wider area of the tyre edge so the first lot of groves would of been chewed as well

R.e grinding noise mate
Left hand turns, starts when wheel is at about 20° and revs above 1500, get a grind/rumble can be felt thru wheel and pedals a bit and seems like front right side but am aware sound can travel a fair bit. I've had matey sit in the boot and he thinks it's coming from the front of the car as well.
Same symptoms when fully loaded towing uphill.
Diff had new carrier bearing that side, new front prop and new timken front wheel bearings.
Worth mentioning rear prop centre bearing has play so that needs replacing.
I'm hoping driveshaft or maybe rear wheel bearing but that's probably unlikely. Worst case is diff again.
Plan is to get it on stands this weekend and get wheels off and run it. I've ordered a stethoscope hopefully narrow it right down....
Hiya
Just out of curiosity and hope it’s not rude question have u ensured the steering wheel angle has been reset and does indeed say zero plse
Only reason I ask if if it’s out the DSC can kick in, makes a sounds like a very quick vibration
Just a thought mate
Time got a gap iid, lol , indeed shame ur not closer as I could have plugged my iid in and done a print out
Its on the cards ain't it! Got the intermittent suspension fault as well so will defo need it to sort that myself.
Did read a bit about steering angle but dsc light doesn't come on when it happens so kinda discounted it. Can I check steering angle without diagnostics? If it helps I've got just under 2 full turns of the wheel lock to lock both sides
