    High Front end after strut change

    Thanks for all the replies guys - found a local non specialist with a LR loaded Snap on. He reset it only for the message appear again. He then found one of the height sensors had stuck or seized at max height but was able to free it up. All good now. Cheers

    High Front end after strut change

    I am in Co Down in Northern Ireland so specialist indies are probably few and far between. I do know of a few non specialists who would more than likely have readers but I would doubt they are LR specific. Seems a bit of investigation is required. Thanks for your help.

    TD6 battery or gearbox

    Hi Again Got the TD6 recovered to a local yard. Unfortunately there is very limited access so it's difficult to to check in situ.

    TD6 battery or gearbox

    Thanks for the quick reply. I'm hoping to have it recovered tomorrow so will do some voltage checks etc. Do you thnk checking for a voltage rise when the engine is started is sufficient for an alternator check? Thanks again

    TD6 battery or gearbox

    Hi All First post and it's the old TD6 gearbox chestnut. My son has an 04 Vogue TD6 and lost drive on a roundabout. High revs brought it to a safe spot and he switched off. It wouldn't restart and he discovered that the battery is completely dead. There were no signs of any slippage or noises...
