In true Land Rover style, I fixed one coolant leak only to find another, on a stupid preformed BMW plastic pipe.
The old plastic pipe i think I was very lucky with. Undid the 3 bolts holding it to the block and the branch off it just fell off...
Connector size is generally suited to the hose size. A hose with 5/16" (8mm) internal diameter is best suited to an AN6 fitting. Which had a 9/16 thread diameter.
A 3/8" hose (10mm) will be suited to AN8 which is a 1/2" thread.
1/2" hose about...
Fuel pump done
Handbrake shoes done
Fog lights swap done
Siren just needed coding back in
Hoovered out
Cleaned seats and dash (bloody biege)
Coolant leak tomorrow as no manifold gaskets arrived in time.
Well at the moment it may just be a diagnostic tool not being capable of deleting codes. Will hopefully find out shortly if it worked or not.
Millionaire shortcake, there's a cake.....
Today I'm planning on replacing the in tank fuel pump so I can use all the fuel before it cuts out, bodge up a retaining pin for a handbrake shoe, replace the siren sounder module and stop a coolant leak on the TD6 top hose branch thingy.
That's...
This was the thread. Always popped up even in Google searches trying to figure out my problem 😂

Looking like IID Tool was able to clear the faults. Will keep an eye for the moment but it's achieved more than a few code readers have managed to do. Also turned off cold monitoring of the bulbs (hopefully) so will see what happens there...
It's YWC500281 HW:07/SW:2.1 which looking at google results suggests it's about right.
The VIN coded in is correct as well.
Reading round a few BMW sites suggests it backs up the configuration file and uses this if the primary file fails...
Not sure about previous owners replacing it but there's no tamper dot on the display. The fact the lights flicker with the bulb test suggests it's intended for normal incandescent bulbs so I'm thinking it is original.
Hi Guys
2006 L322 Vogue TD6
Got an odd one here. I have tried searching but only seem to find a thread about coffee and walnut cake and lemon drizzle from a few years back.
Got 20 fault codes permanently stored in the LCM which I cannot clear...
Well, finally figured it all out.
Got trailered back to Oxford last night and spent the day messing about.
There seemed to be a few issues all rolled into one. Exactly which one was the cause I don't know.
The steering lock was duff, managed...
Pretty much abandoned for now, will try the coil in the morning and if that fails steal a family members car for the weekend and get the AA to drag it home Monday if they will.
