Wasn't he told to stick with a P38 :rolleyes: :rolleyes: 😁

Where are the brake switches to be found? Near the pedal presumably?

setting fire to myself would certainly be a distraction!

Petrol and matches would end your misery

i find it helps to rant about something, then when i read it back, it makes be grumpy and i turn a different shade of green

@kermit_rr the way this saga is going you're get this thread to 42000 in no time !!

does anyone know how the front air struts work? i think i broke it :o it now twists and the top electric plug spins round :(

replacing the front control arm, the straight one with the height sensor on, the ball joint is dead.. that wont come out either did manage to persevere with getting the CV/axle out tho! thats definitely a 2 person job. might be easier on the...

Knew I had copied the idea from some one. Thanks Keith 👍

+1 mine has it . I used it to couple a solar charger to as there is a permanent live to it.

As above, 7S trailer wiring, I have a solar panel connected via the trailer socket when parked to keep the battery topped up.

Your only removing the hub carrier amd not the arms I hope😳 It shouldn't need realignment afterwards 🤔

So, if your going to pull the whole unit off anyway.. You can have the Cv head pressed out and save the unit then👍

Wrong I know, but I used compressed air to find leaks in mine many years back. Replaced condenser & dryer after which it was great for 3-4 years. Then got the slow leak problem. Eventually traced to the spindle seal on the compressor, which...

Have you driven it to clear the abs light from startup🤔👍

Thank you Mark

Hub, bearing and carrier?

So you can give it a bit of stick. If in doubt, pull the whole hub off and get pressed out👍

Nanocom for diagnostics.

Good luck with the Nitrogen, it did not find the condensor leak on mine, nor did the vac test.

The cv is dead that's why I'm trying to get it out :)

Load up the puller and tap the end of the push pin that contacts the Cv thread. Worst case is that you pull the bearing support and remove the Cv joint head and get it in a press. You may have to sacrifice the Cv joint to remove if it's seized 🤯

More likely the contacts were corroded, and pulling & re-inserting did the trick. Best clean them thoroughly to prevent future issues. Has it been stored or used in a damp environment ?

It also can rust the pump head Inside causing debris to jam the mechanism 😩

Bought a hub puller. It's still not pulling the hub off!! Any ideas?

Have you tried sacrificing the kids to the gods? Win in both cases......

Are you trying to get the Cv shaft head out of the hub?sorry I've not followed precisely😳
