Just thought I'd ask in here rather than create a new thread as it's kinda Semi-related, what would be the best map for the machynlleth (B@stard lane)? going camping by Llanbedr this weekend to Wednesday get in touch if you're out in the area this weekend! :) Edit: Either OS124 or OS135? I'm...

Lightning is spot on here, I would put it in the sump as far away from the block as possible to stop the heat from the block making a impact on temp reading, the oil pickup is maybe half inch off bottom of sump so when up to temperature that would provide a consistent oil temp reading.

just seen on ebay someone selling one for 150. I don't think there is much i can do with the existing as the entire passenger side is not far off non existent thanks for links these are pretty handy

im probably getting the wrong name for it when I'm searching but what is the name of the member in front of the rear axle? It's rotten and need replacing Gearing up for items on payday and this is the first one i think

One of the best explained videos I have seen in a long time

Yes the guy who it was stolen from seen my land rover's outside and came up to ask, not the thief haha

Its not mine but feel right to post for the poor bugger, guy approached my house looking for a camel trophy, didn't know the area very well from what I gathered. Stolen genuine camel trophy in West kirby area on the Wirral, Sunday the 16th, guy came down as he dad had fallen ill and someone...

Does anyone have any knowledge on the N57D30 engines (530D etc.)? I just got a 130 and want to put one in, but want to give the drivetrain a nice upgrade, disco Auto box and transfer case but wanna know how what conversion plate i need to come up with to mate the bmw to the disco box

As the title says, I'm going from Liverpool to Cornwall (St Clether) with a car transporter that will be empty, I'm picking up a 130 :D Anyone that needs anything moving along there let us know and we can discuss Edit: short notice, tomorrow Thursday the 13th April, coming back up on Friday...

I was thinking 230v not 12v when i looked at the amps o_O

Cheers Paul, that helps a lot. I may have a look at the ones in hollingsworth on the way back! I'll let you know how I get along and if they look okay to drive :)

I would literally plug it in and got with the flow, 400w is not a lot of power, I have mine piggy backed off of my high beams and have never had an issue with it. just check the fog lights fuse and compare to the amps of the fuse that came with the light bar?

I have a handful of lanes from the peak district but they're all South East, has anyone any knowledge near Stalybridge? I'm going tomorrow for a day in the Archery club, wouldn't mind some small lanes near by to round off the day before I come home? And no I don't have an OS map for the area...

I've wired mine into the main headlights, so when I go on high beam it turns my LED bar on too, wouldn't be a bad idea to put them on the fogs though if you haven't got them in. Wiring is simple, just look up a schematic of 4 way relay diagram and go from there.

I have a set of mud pluggers on D1 steels, but they aren't anything I'd keep on, only when off roading as they are a thinner tyre

What's your budget? I have a 2001 Disco 2 TD5 Manual with 2" lift kit, sitting on a set of near new Hankook Dynopro M/T snork, 52" LED bar Winch Bumper with 13500lb winch (Rope) upgraded rear metal bumper, CB radio. And a fresh headlining in it which is near on perfect.

The only thing I found was a little bit of carbon build up I had missed out but that's how it was when it was running maybe rings causing an issue and didn't see it when it was in, other than that I'm completely baffled

Long due update sorry for silence, took it all apart again and recleaned, put it back together and it turns over perfectly now, bizzare!! Thanks for input guys :):)

Caps, Shells and rods all have markings to ensure they go on the right way yeah the only thing I can think of is that some shells have been swapped by mistake with a wrong piston as the shells are not numbered like the caps and rods. the Nipple was pointing in the direction the Haynes had said...
