Hello all. Looking for a service kit for my 03 TD4. Any recommendations welcome. The stuff on *b*y seems to vary widely in price and so Presume quality. I always use a good quality oil just need the right service kit to go with it. Cheers all.

Thanks for your replies. Seems a shame to waste it. Change every 5 thou, as this is my yearly mileage. Cheers.

Hello all. Due an oil change on my Td4 FL1. I have some oil left over from previous oil changes, shell Helix 5/40 and Halfords 5/40 both fully Synthetic. Question is can I use them together. Thanks in advance for any replies.

Hi Nodge68. Now I have spare solid Pins for the bottom, could I do the same? Or would this be a bad move. Thanks

Cheers Sir. And many thanks on this. I now know what caused the problem. I discarded the grease on the last pad change in favour of copper based stuff. WRONG.

Hello all. Doing a few jobs on the front recently and noticed the caliper slide pin at the bottom stuck. Iv'e ordered new ones. It would seem that the top pin differs from the bottom one. The bottom one has a rubber bush set up while the top is of a solid pin set up. Both have a special grease...

Nodge68. Thanks for your reply. I'll run it as it is for now then until I get round to doing it. There's other stuff to do before the weather drops. Cheers.

Hello all. Recently I've changed the CV boot on the front drive shaft. The usual problems of rust welded bolts etc. I removed the CV joint to get the new rubber boot on, there's a snap ring on the shaft, and when replacing the CV , I bent it. At this point I'm stuck! I am not at home and need...

Thanks again. One more ask, can the caliper be left on? Let you know how I get on. Cheers

Nodge68 Thanks. I realise I need to get the Hub away from the shaft, but need to do it with as little bother as possible. I'm getting on a bit in years and have not got the arm power I used to have. Cheers.

Hi Pals. Looking to put a new CV joint boot on the out (wheel end)side of the shaft. Any one done one of these? The Haynes sez to remove the ABS sensor? I would rather avoid this, as the thing has been in there from new and I know the bolt will snap when I try. I know the caliper will have to...

Well. Did them both today while the rain held off. The bolts were tight but not rusted as I expected. Once I got them moving with a VERY long strong arm they came out no problem. They seem to be a galvanised finish of some sort. The only ones that didn't want to move were the bottom ball joint...

Post a Pic then. Enjoy your Motoring. Cheers.

As always. Thanks to all for your replies. All a great help. Let you know how I get on. Cheers Pals.

Hi Pals. Looked at the Haynes route of doing this job, which differs from this video. Any one had success at going down the way shown in the video. As the winded long removal of the drive shaft nut, the hub and caliper? As the Youtube version is often stopped when a problem occurs. Thanks...

Thanks for your reply. I'll have another look at them. Cheers.

Hello all. I have looked through the archive, but all looks out of date. Need front Wishbone Part and do recall that members recommended Delphi parts. As it goes, can't find Front wishbone Assembly for FL1 by Delphi complete with rear bush. Have they stopped doing them? If so, Any other...

Have to say, I have done 40,000 mls, and a lot of muddy/snow hill climbs with a Bell Eng Recon. And would have another. Yes , the same tyres and closely watched tyre pressures observed through out that time. Cheers.

Can only give you my experience of there stuff. Which was not good. I'm not out to up set any one on this subject. Have to add, I did not complain on the site either, it was BAD..
