Had sticking calipers about a month ago, did check temps other day, rear wheel centres were 16 & 17 degrees and fronts were 18 &19 so brakes and bearings seem to be running fine.

That was my thinking. Sonething like those foam hair curlers but much longer. Maybe ask in the Freelander section?

Exactly like that but thinner. Brilliant. I now know what to search for.

Ah OK. In my case it has always been the switch in the centre console causing the problem so it has been lazy locking to the rescue.

Insured my other P38 project car ready for tyres & MOT. £224 for the year. Few weeks ago the cheapest I could find was about £600, but this deal popped up.
Did a similar search on Grove & Dean in case it was money supermarket glitch, but same price.

Re-charged the aircon with a can of R134a. The previous can has lasted almost 12 years. I don't think there is a leak as there was still some pressure just not enough so it didn't get really cold. The re-charge include a dye which will show if there is a leak.

I've had a look. I reckon the boot probably needs something close to 15mm to fill it and the door seals closer to 10mm. 5m of 15mm backer rod is £80! A new (genuine) tailgate seal is £180. Meanwhile, for £25 I can get this:
That looks kind of tempting.

Yes it does, but look at these before committing
10m of 15mm backer rod is £4.06 with the vat

That price it’s worth a try. If it doesn’t work will come in handy for something, if it does we will have fix for next person

Mine has been leaking around the compressor spindle. Pressure was dropping slowly over several weeks, but only found the leak because I took the mag clutch off to check if that was the rattle I could hear when engaged. There were no other dye signs anywhere on the system.
