    Buzzing Rev Counter

    I don't know much about rev counters all can tell you is some a driven by the electrics and some are driven by cable, what is wrong is simply a process of elimination, if it's electrical I would guess maybe the unit is at fault, if it's cable again the unit bearing maybe

    Indicator dash flash

    Hello I wonder if anyone can confirm my thinking, when I use my indicators left or right the dash light doesn’t always flash, the outside indicators all work but the display light doesn’t always.

    Transfer Box on 200 tdi

    When I twist the output shaft that serves the front axle on the transfer box there is play, it moves side to side, put a little bit more pressure on the twist and it moves a little further, sort of stops then moves the extra bit if you understand what I mean, the coupling on the axle does the same.
