The fluid sensor can fail in the reservoir Been there done that

Do you have insomnia too?

Not fluid level. It was first thing I checked and mechanic checked too. Handbrake goes off, brake system doesn't. It's all poiting to a sensor/wire. Only one more sleep to go 🤣🧑‍🎄

Discs are discs, I don't see the point of grooved on a landrover unless you have 3 piston calipers and then what's the point. Let's keep it simple ! Pads have different gradings - soft, medium, hard and other. Soft is usually from manufacturer so...

Hmmm, brake fluid level or level sensor. Broken brake pad wire if fitted🤔 Does the hand brake warning go off when you release the handbrake?

Just this little beauty 😉 But brakes are fine, handbrake is working fine. Thursday is the day all will be revealed................ or not..

Just Japan and USA got 4 o2 sensors. Everyone else made do with 2 I think. I think (think) the engine is OBD compliant enough to show what the o2 sensors are doing with a bog standard code reader. With the engine running they should show the...

They will should be easy to see just before & usually nothing after the cats (unless it's a US Import).

Haven't heard back from the garage today (despite telling me they'd ring - classic). There's another garage a bit further which has all the LR diagnostic equipment, so I've booked it in with them later this week. Hopefully all will become clear...

So, are there any warning lights showing? Just recapped your post, sorry. I guess we'll have to wait and see🤔

I did suggest handbrake to mechanic who came out but he is convinced it's a sensor 🤷‍♀️ And yes on cable 😁👍

How can you tell the difference?

Pot holes or bomb holes?

Later on that night about 8.00 pm I saw council workmen filling in several potholes along the same piece of road. Makes one wonder how many other people had problems that day

There's my baby. Slightly modified to say the least 😂

Welcome mate👌

new to the forum. good evening all

And BTW, most P38 only have two O2 sensors as far as I know, so check before someone charges you for four of them !!

There's potholes i go around with big squishy tyres, then look in the mirrors and see the audi etc go straight over/in/thru it with low profiles 🙄🫣

The old saying is true: In the UK we used to drive on the left of the road, now we drive on whats left of the road.

I always thought moog were ok. Island list them as 'genuine' The roads round here are beyond crap. Cracked alloys and burst tyres aren't uncommon

I'll agree with the Meyle HD parts. The 9-5 i have used to go through droplinks every 6-12 months. Meyle HD now been on for about 10 years and only just needing replacement. The roads round Oxford are generally crap at best as well.

You don't have to decide lad 🤣😜 They are already fitted🤭

Normally I would say Lemforder although I had one of theirs and it failed within a year. On the plus side they replaced it under warranty.

I use EBC Green Stuff pads. Not worried about dust, just want quality pads.

I just go with a decent set of pads and disks and keep the wheels clean (like hell I do) but then we mostly do longer drives with less braking so the brakes last longer where we are. I had to change the Volvo pads after 8yr because they rusted...

thats utter garbage anyways, you wouldnt get high CO and normal HC with failed cats high CO = its running rich, normal HC no/nominal unburnt fuel, ie no misfire or bad valves diag will tell you if an o2 sensor is running ok, fuel trims will tell...

and rattle :D

Plus the cats can fail after time and or crack inside letting gas through without being converted ☝️
