There is always something Had to move the project car yesterday, it has not moved for 3 months. Started instantly as usual, motorway height light flashing on the EAS as per normal as I run it locked at that height. By the time I'd backed it out of the garage, the left side had gone to wade height, the right side was at motorway height, no faults logged. I pushed the button to to take it to wade height and the right side rose to match the left, it then dropped on command to motorway height and all was normal. Not quite sure how it could do that without logging a fault.

Another minor quirk?The new coolant hose is leaking.. again.. from the same spot.
I think Google knows something because it autocorrected coolant hose to couldn't hose
No just britpart engineeringAnother minor quirk?
Tightened the hose clip again!! I could hear sure has got in again when i started up

Easy enough on the GEMS too. Hardest bit is undoing the wiring clip.Changing an injector on a diesel is easy, another plus.

Today I replaced a cracked LH-F window regulator with a Britpart item. Works fine but am I looking at limited lifespan here? Seemed to be well-enough manufactured - same thickness as the original part. Bear in mind I am a novice at P38 internals.
I think it depends on the item and where it's made.
Sometimes you get the same as oem but in a different box, others you gets a cheap replica
Mice in the computer.. Micro mice !!There is always something
Have you checked then fitting its on? There could be a hairline crack in it??The new coolant hose is leaking.. again.. from the same spot.

It seems odd that two pipes won't seal on the same fitting?? Get a bright lamp to inspect it.
it's just the one end going onto the water pump.. it's a new pump in the last couple of years.
It's just the rubber going squidgy and making the jubilee loose.. hopefully this is the last tightening
