    Also clean all earths (battery to chassis and chassis to engine/gearbox. If you haven't already done so, run a new earth from battery to engine/gearbox.

    Diff lock 0 power

    Engaging diff-lock shouldn't make it go out of high or low range. The lever itself may be fouling on something- enough to move it forward or backward and disengage drive.

    Yes. There are a few bed-wetters on here who flourish the card and are flummoxed when it doesn't work.

    The ball joint taper locks it firmly in place, not the nut.

    No, but people get upset when you say truths and play the racist card in a desperate attempt to stop you.

    Vehicle purchase not as described?

    Caveat emptor. If you go to buy a reconditioned engine you get none of the ancillaries with it. The engine is just the sump, block, head and it's internals.

    Crit'air stickers in France...?

    Fair enough. Though why anyone would want to go to any main french city is incomprehensible. Much nicerer in small rural villages.

    Crit'air stickers in France...?

    Wow, who knew my petrol motorbike with a crit air 4 sticker in the screen is actually a diesel! Crit air is to do with emissions. Look at your V5 for co² g/km and cross reference it. If there is no figure then you will probably be crit air 4.
