You say when it gets a bit tough you use diff lock, it's not winding up the diffs due to lack of slip is it, I've always been told only to use it when there is enough slip for the diffs.

Thanks for the offer Ratty. I don't think it's going into limp mode, but won't disconecting the air flow meter put it into limp mode? Can you remove the intercooler without disturbing the cooling system? (here so many tales of getting air in the system after a drain down)

I'm in Sth Devon but do get upto Epping Forest quite a bit.

I had a beer with Ratty tonight, I wouldn't ask him how to change a light bulb !! (must be a different Ratty :confused: ) I will blank of the egr valve, are the £35 blanks (TD5 Alive etc) any better than the £5 Ebay jobs any better?

I had a V8 Disco up to a couple of weeks back, now I am the proud owner of a 110 XS (2005) with about 35k on the clock. I wasn't expecting a racing car but by j33ze it's slow. So I am looking at a bit more power and smoothing out the delivery. So a £400 ish chip upgrade should bring it up from...

Blower now working but no heat, dam cars freezing :confused:

Cheers, nightmare coming into work this morning with no heating or visability due to misting up. Had a quick look at the relays and found a burntish looking one for the heater, swapped it round and the bl;ower has started. I have a Land Rover spares place within a mile so I'll go and pick a new...

thanks Wills, alot of that makes sense, Idon't mind buying new stuts etc, I did check the fusses and pull the relays, they all looked ok (the handbook icon is showing on the air con screen ). I know the screens go in places but with no blower it's a pain, I do have a new steering damper and will...
