Wheel bearings?
Landy brakes and steering are to say the least challenging. If you can lock the wheels when you press the pedal hard thats as good as it gets. If not the parts are as cheap as chips £60 will buy new cylinders and shoes alround. The worst senario is that the shoes are contaminated with oil as the half shaft oil seals fail due to age but again they are dirt cheap and easy to replace the cost is labour and v a t try to get some one to help you from this site who lives near if you are not mechanicaly minded.HI All
Just bought a Series 3. There are two big problems:
1. The brakes are virtually non existant. They really are bad. Is there a 'regular' problem, or do they need an overhaul? Does anyone know how much this should cost at a garage (any Indy's near Bournemouth / Southampton!?)
2. The steering too is all over the place. It pulls all over the road and feels quite unsafe. The previous owner said it has 'discovery' wheels - could this be the problem? Again, is there anything obvious which could solve this?
Thanks in advance, look foward to meeting a few of you one day!
