https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/356674393350 Do you have one of these? I am not sure how the circuit works so making some presumptions. Test for live into the brake light switch if ok then test for live going out when pressed. If ok then test at the...

What do you mean by that? You seem to have quite a bit of knowledge about the positive and negatives about mask wearing, so I asked a question. Obviously the last bit was a joke.

@Hicap phill How's the planning going?

Yes. If the bolts are good then reuse them, I replaced them as they don't cost much. It's pretty heavy by the way.

"Then, the engine is turned on. Once exhaust starts being emitted, the machine tests for: Hydrocarbons (HC) Nitrogen oxide (NOx) Particulate matter (PM) in diesel vehicle exhaust Carbon monoxide (CO) Air to fuel ratio (for engine efficiency)"...

It's worth trying a new one for the cost. Post a picture of your Landy, I would also like to see your Corvette. Followed a new one today, thought it was a Lambo until I saw Corvette written across the back of it 😀

Ok, I'll give you my answer. Get it MOT'd, it's got 2 chances. If it fails undo the changes you can, if not drive off laughing. ;);););)

So what if you had two vulnerable oldies in your family? When I took food to my parents I wore a mask to help stop then getting something from me, it made me feel better. Certainly didn't spend my whole day wearing one. While this is indeed a...

It would seem you have an earth if your lights work are you sure you have a brake live then?

If it's really a Ninety or One Ten then it will be a bit harder for people to help as they don't know what has been done in the conversion. If its a TD5 pretending to be a Ninety or One Ten it might be easier to diagnose. Might be worth changing...

You have a brake live at the rear lights? Put a temporary earth from the bulb holder to earth and see if it works. Is there an earth point behind the rear lamp inner covers? High level brake light earths through the heated rear screen earth I do...

. Exhaust emission control equipment You only need to check components that are visible and identifiable, such as catalytic converters, oxygen sensors, and exhaust gas recirculation valves. You should reject all vehicles first used on or after 1...

Good for you. To be honest I didn't mind wearing a mask, didn't have a cold or anything. Had a quick look and you might be ok with removing on a TDI as far as the mot is concerned being pre 2002.

Actually I do believe they are meant to check them and fail if missing or tampered with, same with the cat and dpf if fitted. I imagine you will only get in trouble if stopped by vosa or in a fatal accident and the vehicle is inspected. MOT and...

One more item for the list.

At least it was warm, but had the help off the dog,need to plan 1 more day to convert the rear tub to accept the bed for a camping trip

I couldn't either but at least you now know.

Can you not just twist the frame back the other way if that is the problem 🤔

I wouldn't change anything just for the sake of it. A 20 year old Genuine hose is probably better than a new Britpart one, same with the water pump. Mind you water pump isn't original, what make did they fit last time?

Busy day then.

Or they could say "cheap for a reason". It's all a bit annoying when trying to buy the better option. For example I bought an OEM drop arm the other week, before buying I emailed the places selling them. Only one place hinted it was Adwest but...

Took the 200tdi out for a test run, I hope it's OK this time as my son is losing the faith.

Ridgeway 4x4 Swindon. That is just 1 of the rooms. I can wander in there & get parts without chassis numbers. If it’s not on the shelf it’s normally next working day(if urgent) Does stuff on line as well,both new and take off items. Has a...

It's illegal to remove or tamper with any emission control items, egr and cat included and has been for a while. You are a very naughty boy 😏 Edit: I do wonder if that also includes fiddling with the fuel system.

Your not worried about that being a fail (and illegal) then? If it passes with no egr you should be ok with your adjustments I should think.

Where is that?

Our 2a had a mesh on the filler neck, mind you it was so coarse even small twigs could get through it!

Very rarely, infact I never have. Really you should be looking at changing it every couple of years or so..

It does seem like strange logic for one to have a filter and the other doesn't.

Tell them you won't be back again diy or find a non rip off garage
