Yep, yes, me Sir! It's a beaut.

Replacement engine with working IRD now in car. Just have to connect it all up and rebuild the front subframe and wishbones, driveshafts etc. If I did it again I would remove the bolts holding the manual gear lever link arms on the bulkhead...

Can't have looked at many Landies if you've never seen an advisory for an oil leak! I got this advisory on mine a couple of years back... They're still there!

it did fix the problem,thankfully , hit the wallet a bit hard but at least we are back on the road.

The aircon has failed on my 2005 TD4 and the culprit appears to be at least one of the o-rings where the hoses join onto the valve at the bulkhead (there is quite a residue around the union which points to an escape). Now I have an offer of a...

It's just this is your 4th post with the same problem. Makes it really difficult to see what responses you have had and what has been advised and tried. Remove duplicate posts, post results of tests and you'll find this is one of the best...

Pop to your local breakers yard and cut one off a scrapper

Too right, and the multi bay workshop that it's in!

Stirling stuff. Keep up the good work!

You could charge us all a few quid to take us for spins, to contribute to the ferry cost ;)

13th September works for me. But if I'm the only one not wanting it in late July I'm not going to be resentful about it.

Just revisiting this idea. To accommodate the comments made, proposing Saturday 13th September. Again, if there are enough 👍then I will do some planning.

Currently working on Chademo charging and if it works I'm a definite maybe. :D

Solid yes if mine works by then... considering most of it is / is going to be custom it would be nice to show off :p

Count me in!

Fair enough. I thought i was losing it and was thinking "after all these years, I've never noticed that". 🤣

Ingeniuos! Top work

Back onto this one again now. Donor car is on the ramp, warmed up and drained all fluids. Removed all failed glowplugs. One left a tip in the engine. Will add how I got that out in the glowplug thread. All disconnections made on top and all...

Am I reading this right, the drivers door rocker switch to stop the rear windows switches from working also stops the tailgate window switch working?

Good report 10/10 for the TD4 Sport Auto. Never missed a beat. 1650 miles. Overall average 34.6 mpg. That included a week on Mull in 3rd and 4th gear. Motorway runs averaged 36.5 mpg at a steady 70mph over 450 miles. Took a bag of spares, lp...

To be fair, you've done a good few jobs that were worth doing anyway so all is good.

Where abouts did you see it John?

The Zombieverter is a board that was mainly designed to control OEM hardware like inverters/motors, heaters, chargers etc by sending the appropriate CAN signals and it's constantly being updated with new hardware being added to the menu's. It can...

It could be confusing for a first time reader of this thread. I must admit that I'm interested in this zombi VCU, as I'm wondering if it could made to work with other vehicles, like the Freelander 2, maybe? I think prices of batteries and dead...

DO THIS!!!

I have to keep reminding myself of this when catching up with this thread :cool:

Don’t worry managed to get to sit right with some tender loving persuasion

A better clue. This isn't a spot the differences @kernowsvenski !!! 800 miles so far !

We were looking for a difference between the two posts you'd made damn it! 🤣 The wheels look great though.

So me and my (LR fanatic) step daughter have literally spent about 15 mins looking at the two pics and are stumped!
