    I actually even used it today without any issues (prog button) to clear the fog. Probably my fault the ac belt snapped. Maybe i tensioned it to much? I just did the logical thing. Didnt read RAVE onbviously.. Anyhow, ive got a small question.. im about to join the army for a year...

    yea i don't think im gonna bother doing the ac belt before summer time ish. I'm probably due a new compressor anyhow. Could hear it grind very much whilst turning it around when i took the ac belt off earlier.

    The sound was like a shot bearing, but it was not consistent. Anyhow had nanocom in, so worst fears were eliminated as it wasnt the waterpump i swapped 2 months ago.. But my ac belt.. (it was flung around by the viscous coupling and probably just hit stuff.. dosnt look like any other damage has...

    Well, my quick loose wheel problem wasnr complicated enough for my rangie. It decided to eat its own AC belt, Just now…

    i coppa slip the mating surfaces, i heard coppa slipping threads gives wrong torque aswell?

    I ran a brush over the threads atleast. Maybe its time to order some new nuts? Their old, the decoration caps are generally all deformed making it a hassle taking them on/off, also think a nut or two is about to get rounded due to previous tire shop visits.. air gun goes mad max mode….

    When i fitted them i remember that the rim and where nut seats is in very good condition. Only some minor stone chips on theese old rims. Bargain for 200£ included shipping for thoose. the hub seating also appears to be as it should. my spare is a huge, huge pirelli something.. AT tire

    I do infact still have the weird clunking sound/feel at low speed tho. Vibrations are atleast a goner as the wheels on good now. i still dont think its a UJ. How do i take a check of the panhard rod? Should it sit snug? No movements? Im gonna put the car in the garage in the weekend and check...

    duct tape does wonders

    97 dse vibrations

    Im quite confident i seated it properly. Sat good for over a month? I even re torqued them after a week. (All were good) can the nuts get bad torque due to the old decoration steel caps? Bcus they are miss shaped. hmm this got me thinking… Bad threads? I remember this wheel were a pain...

    No worries, my Rangie is fine. I have +1 in over reacting. It was apparently just a loose wheel (rear left side) I find that weird as i saw with my own eyes wheel close into the hub, nay could i rotate the nuts by hand. I didn't jack it up tho. Maybe if i did that i'd figure it... I just...

    Sad to say, but the car is going to be turned into nails. Huge hole in differential, left airbag gone, (completly) also, rear left calipper (whole schebang) were missing. It did not leak brake fluid as the hose apparently where clogged up. Also no panhard rod in the rear. The workshop also...

    Usually when im under the car i grab everything to see if its snug. Which they always seem to be, so dunno.. I find it odd its gone turning left, but the workshop has previously found bad bushings on my audi so i think they are competent enough to figure it oout quickly, even tho they are no LR...

    Ive had a really bad uj before tho, had no bearings at all.. also greased everyone up after that one went schebang The prop is not loose atleast. The workshop will probably call me later and say what it is, so i will update when i know more. i just didnt have time to do it myself neither...

    97 dse vibrations

    ok, so if the bushing is bad in thoose, i suppose its a bushing and not some ball joint thingy.. that will create loads of vibration? It is affected by drivetrain speed, not engine rpm, and neither what gear i am in. in my understanding panhard rod is against axle movements sideways yes? Radius...
