Coolant Level Sensor fits BMW 318 E30 1.8 89 to 91 61311384739 Febi Quality New I can confirm that in a cup of water no current flows. Out of water with the float downs it completes the circuit. Dont know why ? But saves me a few minutes connecting a relay. Sorry about the picture...

Aghhhhhhhhh. No out of water. Will try tomorrow.

My thoughts were that I concurred with your self. But when it arrived and I tested it it was the opposite and no relay required. Thanks for all the help.

Seals and clips arrived so cleaned and reassembled the diesel cooler. Started on fitting the bmw expansion tank. Knew that the outlet was a different size but managed to fit. Also knew that it exits at 90degress to the tank , but when fitting found that the hose was bent double. There...

Took the cooler off today. Not too difficult but the amount of sludge was depressing. In one end appears to be a thermostat spring or pressure spring. This was completely bunged up. Looking better now after a soaking in diesel and a blow out with air. Waiting for seals and clips to arrive...

Found the leak. Its dripping onto the engine mount from the fuel cooler. Just see it in the photo. Another job to do.

Thank you. Will update as i install.

Right. A bmw expansion tank today arrived today. Looks like it will do the job splendidly. Came complete with a level sensor. But as i was testing the logic it fell apart in my hands. New one ordered. Looks like the reed switch inside was all manky any way. Quick question. Is the circuit...

Thanks. Just been looking at my tank and taking photos and measurements. Came to same sort of conclusion and glad to hear that it can be done. Main problem is slow loss of coolant that i need to address, but trying to find it is proving difficult. Recently replaced thermostat as that was...

Thanks guys. Will look on d2boys club forum to find out more. All these years and did not know about uv coolant dye. Old dogs new tricks. As for the hose clips have a similar tool for those. Mines a bit like pliars with special ends that lock on. Will need to find leak. Was thinking longer...

Hi. My Disco 2 is losing a bit of coolant. Not too much and realise that in future some in depth work could be needed as its now done 160,000 miles. Cant obviously see where from at this stage. Not desperate but dont want to get caught out. In the mean time am fitting a temp gauge with an...

Fitted a new one this week. Both my fobs had stopped working. £75 from Maltings via ebay. Since i did this they both work and from nearly 25meters away where as before it only worked if keys held up to glass. Guys on here have far more knowledge than myself but in my case sorted out problems.

Thanks. Will take Headlining down & sort out sunroof and Hrw at same time.

Arrived today in a genuine Land Rover box from Maltings. Dont think ive ever had a genuine land rover box before. Normally too stingy. Works perfectly even from 20 ft away. Brilliant. Quick another question. Does the heated rear window cable run in the roof as well. Got the useful info off...

Good video of this on the Britannica Resorations youtube channel a year ago. Showing locking pins etc. Was watching it last night by strange coincedence. Not that i even have a 2.5 diesel.

No luck this morning. Dried out the receiver and better connections. So new one ordered a few minures ago. Hope that sorts it as my EKA code involves 34 key turns. And a wait in the rain. Ordered a YWY000080 to replace mine as reading on here indicates that this is the current replacement...

well, receiver has been removed and gone on holiday to the airing cupboard sitting on top the tank. You can see the condensation. I disconnected the wiring. As you can see the earthing point was very damp and mucky. Not helping. Cover removed. Not damp on the inside but a bit of evidence...

Thank you. Its a job for tomorrow. Hopefully remove and put in the airing cupboard for a bit and see if i can dry it out a bit. Thanks

Disco 2. Think I know the answer after doing some reading and research. One of the jobs i was going to do later this year was drop my sunroof and seal up the leaking sunroofs. The previous owner had siliconed up. Today both keyfobs are working but not opening the car. I would presume that...

Heater now works. Thanks all. A dose of Liqui Moly as suggested by Serrafery, A fun couple fun of hours driving round the New Forest in attrocious conditions on my favourite back roads, let it cooled, drained, flushed, refilled and road tested, and heat. In fact had to turn it down to reduce...
