Found it looks like the number plate light chaffed wire.

Right MOT time, Checked the lights last week OK. Checked again this week after noticing that the panel lights are off. the fuse has gone on the drivers side tail and side lights, and panel lights I assume? It's a short as it takes the fuse as soon as i switch on. Any clues as to were it is...

I'm appy cos can't find my 2000 L series or my 300tdi Defender on the Parkers list. I assume that all the **** in the news yesterday doen't apply to me? And my Freelander just increased in value? Might spend out the £175.00 on the tailgate window winder now. Wait aminute...

Thanks Guys I'm not tight but it really ****es me off when they will only sell the complete setup when it is easily repaired with parts, so much for a green approach to motoring.

ThanksDutch Unfortunately the drum in the winde is beyond use so it will cost me about £175 to fix. AllanI Thanks I never thought of that. I only need it to work till the MOT is passed but i think , as thats next week, I goosed if the wiper is part of the test. RSM72 What if I...

Check the wire coming from number one injector. ii it chafes on the head it short out intermittently causing the exact symptoms you described. Start by putting something (non conducting) between the engine and the wire to hold it off , if that works, then wrap it in insulation tape and re-route it

Right the tailgate window mech is goosed! The cable drum is beyond repair and the cables keep jumping off. I'm Ok with the window just clear of the roof so I can open the door. But how do I fool the wipers and heated window into thinking its closed. Also is the wiper part of the MOT?

Where are you going to find the energy to heat Rape oil to 150Centigrade?

WhenI first bought mine the vibes were unbearable. lashed out on Rover rons product as the gas flow thingy seemed to fit the bill re symptoms. Turned out tho be the tyres. Don't put the best tyres on the front. Ever! I'm only posting here because it says (on my PC) that willos reply dated...

Hi Dingo The kit is pretty good but the glue on nipples are a worry and one of mine gave up after a couple of weeks of just opening the door but thats probably me not being fastidious enough. Stop pressing the buttom till you have stripped the thing down as all the cable is now inside the...

Yea veg oil polymerises when you heat it and cool it a lot but that tends to stay in solution and the deisel will help with this. good filtering is surely all it needs. If it don't look wet then its probably OK.The gycerine is more likely in bio than WVO. How does transesterification remove...

Why can't you run WVO without converting to Biodiesel. What your saying is, if I buy 300 litres of veg oil off the shelf, I can mix it into diesel in the tank and run happily. BUT! if I fry a few cod in it first! It won't work? Bollocks! Surely it needs the bits filtering out and possibly...

HB you sound a bit like Hega out of 'allo 'allo

rocker box seal?

Has he gone?

Isn't the main problem that if the boot floors has gone , so has the x-memebr underneath it?

The pump priming bit... If its easy its cos its on the cam . Crank the engine a micro second and try it again. I don't think you have bled it properly. I have to pime mine every morning before I try and start it . its OK for the rest of the day then, unless I fill up from empty when i think...

Hey DAMIG Don't take it to heart, in some eyes its bad enough you own a Hippo but to come on here and ask about accessories and mention chrome exhausts... I think you are getting off lightly. just as well you never mentioned checkerplate... Stick with it they are OK people really and...

got it started for about 2 seconds today, changed the ecu and it went for 2 secs then stopped so changed it back and it done the same does this give anyone anymore idea's If it ran its likely fuel . How about an alternative local feed to the injector pump with a small amount of...

Good point. i have had this problem on an old rover (same system) and the code worked. Only thing is I'm pretty sure it wouldn't turn over not just not start. Anyway If you don't have the code your local dealer will give it to you on proof of ownership No cost from mine who I never...
