With Hot/Cold cycles, air moisture will condense inside a sealed section, hence why car sills can rot out - will be same inside the chassis. Not helped by baffles/strengthening plates welded inside the box section, trapping road dirt and/or mud keeping moisture or water around bare...

@miktdish I'm still fancying the Husky if you have a separated price for me? I've already got 2 bigger ones, but the Husky would be good for my motorbikes (I think)...

This one is almost same... https://www.armouredengineeringuk.com/discovery

I just seen this, might be too small, dunno, have a look - https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1464975147452626/

Good Point, I've not done it for a while so misremembered; I think of it as the ABS confirmation light, but now you've said so, yes it was the TC light. :D

Yep mine does this; makes a buzzing noise, brake pedal vibrates & feels like it's running-on further than the brake-pedal force normally allows.... In my case it's the ABS cutting in & the ABS light on the dash comes on to verify. I'd prefer non-ABS because of this (my BMW did the same thing...

Or like this... (again, it's just 1 landie pickup, on 1 mot) Reason(s) for failure Offside Front position lamp(s) not working (1.1.A.3b) Nearside Rear Direction indicator not working (1.4.A.2c) Nearside Front Vehicle structure has excessive corrosion, seriously affecting its strength within...

Check the MoT history on- https://car-check.co.uk/ and watchout for (beware of) advisories like these, example is from a single pickup... chassis both sides covered in underseal and showing signs of corrosion front bulkhead covered in underseal but showing signs of corrosion vehicle completely...

Yup, sounds like you need to fix that. While you're waiting for someone who knows what they're talking about, pop over to the "Introduce Yourself" section... And maybe post a picture or two of the offending item, below...?

The only phevs I see are annoyingly doing ~25 mph to keep it on the battery power as long as possible (not long). Do all phevs auto-switch from EV to ICE above 25mph?

still says "eco-friendly"... (?) I'd like to claim this for mine too, but somehow doesn't seem correct :vb-confused2:

Have a look at these - https://www.replacementchassisparts.co.uk/defender-110-td5

Hi there ! :vb-wave: :mexicanwave:

I'm interested in the Husky if you would split the deal?

The 4-speed auto-box on my 2001 Disco2 TD5 is lovely; plenty of power for me. A bit noisy when cold maybe, and at slow-traffic-shuffling speeds...but thats the engine/exhaust, not the gearbox. Cruises quietly at 60 & 70mph pulling like a train at 2250 and 2500rpm respectively, checked that...

Hmm, when it's co2 is 284g/km and tax group K ... I don't think its legal to claim it's in the "best" euro6 emissions class and eco-friendly... no excuse that it's what the AI suggested = example why we should not trust AI... :vb-groan2:

Hi there :vb-wave: :mexicanwave:

I believe the key rule to get onto the "for sale" section is you need 50 posts contributing to the forum which demonstrate you're Not just here to sell stuff, even if it's stuff some of us really want (as long as it's cheap) You're also meant to introduce yourself on the "introductions"...

I can imagine that the future 2nd-hand car market will be full of dead hybrid batteries and/or controller issues. No wonder there are stories of dealers not wanting to take them in part exchange...

Lawnmower exhaust is the loudest bit - check exhaust for a crack or hole ?
