Thanks for getting back to me. No, I just checked and ran a razor blade scraper around the head and the block there is nothing evident. There are marks indicating there was a head gasket in there at some point but definitely not now. I also...

Hi guys, so bit of an update. Taken the freelander on a few long drivers over the last couple weeks and was running a dream! But alas there’s always something else! I’ve started to get a judder when pulling away in first or reversing, was...

Well yes - I imagine most places use fairly generic photos for thing like brake pads, rather than taking lots of individual photos of very similar-looking boxes and items.

Thanks for this, the photo shown is a generic image as its for MDB2225 pads, (Renaults etc) however after further research I believe the correct pads are MDB2860 Ian

Are there really thin seal rings cut into the block or head?

Hi there - I'm still looking for my late dads Series 3, pic attached. I know it's a long shot but any knowledge very much appreciated! It is now showing as SORN whereas from memory it wasn't previously. Also any advice on how to get round/through...

I posted earlier about the suspected head gasket leak with coolant getting into two of the cylinders as the spark plugs in those two were washed clean as opposed to the other cylinders which are sooty. So I have gone through the process today...

Ok,Thanks for your help guys!

If you watch this video, it shows how the Nanocom can properly diagnose your issues. Windows & Mirrors demo is at 1:36 into the video. At 2:54 it shows the outputs menu which can test the BECM to door outputs. If you were anywhere near me, I...

The e-assist is a big help without it I doubt that the cycling would be possible. But, I do my best to keep the e-assist level low enough that I am also putting effort into the system against the resistance so that my muscles get a bit of work to...

Yes, just a little. As long as I don't go crazy with the PUSH effort it seems to cope. :) Weird seeing as one day last week I could not walk up or down the stairs on the right leg. As the trike is e-assist I am not having to do all the work I...

I tend to agree, hence I suggested cleaning the connectors first. Solenoid resistance testing has been well covered in this forum as well.

when I did my auto conversion the gearbox worked fine, but quite quickly after the initial start it started making a nasty noise, this was after refilling, engine warm and running, upto the level. I drove it around a bit (including a one hour...

No cat at all, bought it ages ago, but could not get teh old one off, then life happened

Good afternoon all. I have been looking online at what's best to seal a transfer box and it seems a bit grey. Some suggest using 'paper' gaskets, some suggest paper gaskets and silicone, others just say silicone... I have two different LT230s...

Starters easy to remove, clean and test

Dunt the pedalling hurt your legs after a couple of miles?

Being road biased, they will be quieter. Be interesting to see how they get on

Knee a bit better then Dan? 👨‍⚕️

Does it have a dummy cat or no cat at all?

I have used Britpart OEM ones 9 years ago and still going strong, unlike the poly ones which lasted 1 week. You buy the standard cheap Britpart ones and they are only any good if you are selling it.

Mismatch between sender and gauge maybe. I put an additional sender in the top hose and matching additional gauge due to being to scared of the possibility of the thread in the housing getting stripped. Temp for a 200tdi is in the late 90's...

...took the Mini out for a blatt round the town, no problems noticed. Will check the plugs later. Also took the trike out and did a 10 mile loop around Canvey Island in the sunshine. :D That's twice in just few days. :)

I have 10 liters fuel in the tank since 2 years, if i mix with new gazoline it's ok , or i must empty the tank before ?
