    It was all going so well. Clutch, Gearbox or something else?

    Just come off the motor way and I couldn't put it in first. Banged it in, then discovered second and third and fourth had to be banged in (knob fell off when I banged it in first). Now on drive, can't get it in reverse for love nor money? I think my clutch pedal has more pedal slack before my...

    Headliner

    Noy yet. The headliner carcass was like a wet egg box when I bought the tratter last Oct, but after a gallon of bleach to kill the mould I emulsioned it to stiffen, used fibreglass kit then spray fixed vinyl from my local fabric shop. It was never gonna look perfect cos the carcass was shagged...

    Purple? Mahogany brown snake skin. I must get on with the sides.

    Headliner

    Sunnyish here. Scaffold down. It's absolutely done the job so I'd recommend bunging the expanding foam straw up either side and pulling the trigger. A bit of trimming to do and a bit of a bump but that's my microwave module. I can get hairdryer out now and stick back the bubbles.

    Headliner

    It's the sagging headliner. Decided to just try it this morn. I'd put silentcoat tiles on roof then dodo foam insulation on roof. Headliner too heavy for velcro strips etc. I'll let you know if it works when it's dry :0)

    Headliner

    I know there's loads of threads on 'em, but this is about the sagging arses around the alpine lights (the curved sausage side windows). I've tried industrial strength velcro, hard as nails .... to no avail. My next idea is expanding foam and propping some 2 x 1 strips down the sides of the...

    Cheers big ears. I've banked it but I'll take James's word for now, though my brief migration from Anything Goes tells me he's making a great deputy :0) LZ's sensible side is invaluable to us old, useless peeps who default to talking rubbish x

    Mystery Metal

    Well I suppose I've been lucky to have had 250 miles per week, mostly motorway driving, for the last four months in my new job. Sundays is water, oil and other fluids checks and this was sat at the back of the engine head. It wasn't attached to anything, so does anyone know where it's vibrated...

    Freelander 1 Rotary heater control actuation interface devices going milky can anyone help?

    Knobs go back to cloudy after fairy liquid. Spit and polish is the only way!

    Enough is Enough

    ECU? I don't think I have electronics. I hope not, if all I've got look forward to is your experience. I'm pretty certain there can only be about 50 things that go wrong with mine. I even know I'll need a new engine down the line, but not the things you've listed (I hope).

    Top. You don't splattered by warm liquid and your big ends are less likely to twist.
