Ah, he'll be back! Just wants a break to join the rest of the herberts in shoeboxes and then he'll realise what he had. Besides, is there life after Ming and Mondo I ask myself ? :-)

Any good? From Rave. Cheers!

Still keeping the nice yellow tow rope though, Mondo????

Thems his bridging ladders to help him get on an off the camp site now hes in mondo mode. Obvious! Smiles.

This isn't going to make you feel any better but if its the same compressor fitted to a RR, I once stripped one out and the failure is a plastic/nylon type piston ring that probably costs no more than a quid! The compressor has no little end bearing so the piston always travels up and down the...

Yes - got fast forward - Canadian. email sales@fastforward.ca Nothing on web about VCU but may be worth an email. Can do Mondo? Better to keep it coming from one source rather than everyone emailing? Smiles

Refurb kit is only for damper on VCU on flea bay. Expensive at that! Looks like VW Westfalia synchro (vanagon in US - where's my vanagon????) used same VCU manufactured by Steyr Daimler Puch. On SDP website it even states they manufacture for freelander from 1997 Steyr Daimler Puch All Wheel...

King of Bling - as our US cousins seem to call it! Not for me - but one mans woofer is another mans tweeter :-)

I've spent many years now in former east europe (Poland mainly) and, as in Czech R, older discos especially rhd aren't targetted much by thieves. Can't believe there isn't good service in Prague - I have a colleague there still so could find out if you are seriously considering taking your rhd...

I'm sure Ming won't mind me jumping in? Attaching text of re-sync. Mings right - simple things first and a battery change won't hurt to eliminate that before progressing on. Will save a chase arse type situation :-)

Buggers, morticians, politicians and moderators - WOW - we're a motley crew when all said and done :-) I aint giving up my landrovers no matter what the sods do!

Am attaching a circuit dia which may be of help. Would be interested in your outcome, Moose. Good luck.

It appears that the system operates properly on all functions except one - unlock passenger and rear doors from either remote OR switch on central consol? This would indicate to me that there is a loose connection somewhere on or after the CCU. This is located centrally under the dash. There are...

Maybe lateral thinking using diff locker technology? Free wheeling rear diff that can be "locked" to produce drive to rear diff drive shaft(s) when required? Something like - http://www.kamdiffs.com/pdf/DIFLOK~4b.pdf. If we have the technology to lock both wheels through the diff at the throw...

Dropped my prop shaft not long ago and it was quite straightforward. You ony need one front and one rear wheel jacking to turn the shaft. 17mm open ender at rear as there is no room to get a ring spanner on. 13mm socket or ring at front. Rave advises not to drop VCU first under any circumstances...

Got 160K on my 300tdi auto and get close to 30 regular. Cold weather and short journeys knock it down though! Been told it'll get better when it gets run in proper :-)

Can help with pic of location. Sensor resistance is usually higher when engine coolant is cold - can't help further though. Relatively cheap to replace especially after the trouble you've had. Good luck.

6.8 litres with filter change according to my h'book. Strange that, I've seen 1/2 and 1 litre mobil 1 - maybe only in europe?

Got a 300tdi at 160K with mobil1 passport from new. Regular change every 5K. Starts no heaters, uses no oil. Mings right - change the oil regular on a deisel and the filter as recommended. Pollen filter costs a bomb, I believe? Anyone met anyone allergic to a fl ?? :-)

Am attaching a pic of the cut off. First time I've done this so hope it works?
