Thank you for the ideas guys, but this only happens when the car is moving at above 50mph regardless of revs. It is not replicatable at rest or just revving the engine. Therefore I am assuming it is air pressure on the front of the car. Can anyone advise where the air enters the heater/ac...

This is just about driving me crazy. At 50mph or thereabouts an annoying whistle starts (800Hz), very audible in the cab. It has just started, after doing nothing on the car and is NOT effected by any of the following: 1. Heater controls. 2. Sun roofs 3. Windows 4. Wipers. 5. Wing mirrors Now...

I have ordered a Trident T413701 and will let you know how I get on.

Looking good, some great ideas. I will review after a day or two and make a decision, but thanks for all your advice so far gents

I really only run it in the winter. I have a remote humidity meter here in the house office and the garage sort of keep in line with the house here. But I will take you advise and up it to 60% when I start using it again. incidentally the garage is a new build with double wall and Thermolites on...

I am fed up having to pay the garage for new brake pipes and wish to purchase a reasonable brake flaring tool. Can anyone point me in the right direction or recommend one they are using. There seems to be a lot of Chinese crap out there as usual. Thanks in anticipation Steve

I bought a Meaco Zambezi DD8L in the end. Completely automatic, drains to sink and does the job. But watch your electricity bill, these things dont do anything for free. Keeps the garage at a constant 55% humidity for me and all my tools are rust free.

It was the right thing to do. The brush is excellent and has been in use 18 months now. A pleasure to use and does the LR very well. I recommend it 100%

I'm in rural North Wiltshire

As a home mechanic and bodger of some repute, I have mainly bought Makita in the past Andy, but do have some De Walt stuff. The De Walt DCF990 has such good reviews it was a no-brainer especially for the LR. It is a mans tool weight wise, but like any good battery power tool it is perfectly...

I did the job by pulling the whole half shaft assembly out. The idea was to stop oil leaking, so i replaced the hub O ring. It didn't make any difference, the hub still leaks oil over the back plate, so will need to replace the hub complete at some point. i dont envisage this as a problem now...

There's a matching deal here...

All sorted thanks to sieraferry You can get PDFs from here https://www.dropbox.com/sh/47hbz40an5he5j2/AACH509eV_o7QhM5PoX6eFVLa

After much faffing about I have made the decision and ordered a De Walt DCF899 kit from Toolsense; 1 x DCF899 XR Impact Gun 2 x 5.0Ah XR Li-Ion battery packs with state of charge indicator 1 x Multi-voltage XR charger 1 x TSTAK Kitbox All in at £274. I will report back when I have had a...

As always Sierrafery I am in you debt again. Thanks for that.it is much appreciate Steve

My trusty version of RAVE for my 2003 LR D S2 no longer works. Can anyone advise me where I can find it to downloaded afresh. I can find the Workshop Manual easily enough but not a working complete RAVE set of manuals including electrical diagrams and working descriptions etc.

I have the opportunity of purchasing a second hand two post lift and should like to get your thoughts. The two post is a 1989 Stenhoj Mascot with lift capacity of three ton. It is currently fitted with a three phase motor and has led a sheltered life in a country estate workshop and seems in...

Yes I was talking bare unit resto. I guess the important thing is what torque I shall need and choosing the most compact and cost effective IW for that rating

Thanks guys. So far it is looking like the Cordless Impact Driver is the way to go and I appreciate all the comments and recommendation regarding these tools. The use I would put the tool to would be on my Land Rover Discovery S2, and three older classic cars I maintain, so torque capability is...
