1st gear? How fast were you going? No rise in revs from the accelerator pedal on the tacho?

Walking pace, maybe a bit more. The revs went up but no increase in speed

So, you were in 1st gear, even at walking pace the revs would have to go up a long way before the torque convertor caught up with the speed of the gearbox input shaft.

Took her to Gibsons as the telescoping steering ginally gave up the ghost. Hoping it just the white plastic bit, as I can still hear the motor whirring.

My td6 and 4.2 on my mothers farm hill you could coast down from standstill but both was happier if you accelerated bit then let it coast down against footbrake

Changed the damaged wing-mirror, well, bits of it. Managed to make a good one between what remained of mine and the scrapper one.

Missing a couple of bolts that hold the gearbox shield.. its humming like a trombone at 1100 revs!! And very loud. Whoever put it on didn't tighten it up! Need to buy a pack of new ones, just regular M8 i think but not sure where from.. Screwfix don't seem to have any! I'll try the hardware shop tomorrow

Westfield Fasteners might have them in stainless.

actually they are M5 (8mm socket), the one!! remaining has a captive washer.. apart from the 'how in the world do they do that!?', whats the point other than to stop you dropping the washer?
If your other ones had them maybe the bolts wouldnt have fallen out. so perhaps if they were put on the other side of the cover they may come loose but wouldnt fall out
I have noticed a few places they have used them on the L322. But not done the gearbox cover so dont know for sure.
