Got the 'Aural Warning' the other day that one of me front pads was knacked.
Changed them and stone me....two days later get another aural warning from the feckin back!
Anyway..did them anorl. Moral is to keep pads in stock so as not to pay ya local factor prices.:mad:
 
Got me prop off.Invented new swear words in the process.Broke 4(!!!)Circlip plier noses(4!!!), decide mine were held on by the force.Am obtaining necular weapon to get em off.
PS cheers to Buster, piccies guides been well helpful for the above!Virtual pint for you mate!
 
Ive looked in me engine bay and scratched me heed.Ive looked in the disco bay and scratched some more.Fookin ell the tdi conversion will take a few days when i get home.I was hopeing to do a straight swap.HO HUM
 
Finally managed to de-cat the disco after snapping 2 bolts on the chassie cross member last weekend removed 3 more yesterday after soaking them in wd40 all week then had to get the torch on the last 3 this morning.
 
I road tested my baby after finishing the engine swap (2.5TD to 200tdi).
The phrase 'holly crap, this thing shifts!!' came to mind.:D:D:D:D

Then I changed the oil in the gearbox, transfer box and axles.

A good day.:bounce:
