Maybe Itl improve kpg

Leave the bloody thing alone🤷😜

Wants to think he's going faster than he is. Good for staying below the speed limits!

I was bored

À good question, get in there lad and measure them. As a rule, any bolt length should leave at least 5mm sticking out of the nut once it's tight👍

If they've rotted, some heat, oil and a good pair of mole grips. Or cut the buggers off with a grinder👌 Then cut and make the old bolts flush and drill then out to fit bolts if you're using the part again 👍

👍 👍 👍 :vb-hearts::vb-hearts:

Evaporate Fixed.. ta

evaluate?

Mine been behaving, which is weird.........

And the latest L322 haha

Amen to that 👍 👍

Long live the Blessed P38 I says. ;)

Yea i just read that.. talk about making things complicated? But i guess it's better to fail heavy than fail light.. wouldn't be fun on the auto-barn at 120mph

Because it has some electronic servo assit valve, or some other fancy thing. That helps more at low speeds and less at high speeds, or something like that :vb-confused2: I would imagine if it has issues it fails, so gives heavy steering🤔. J

Hey all, so update from the frontline... The ECU is with the specialist, having the immobiliser delete done today and should get it back Monday/tuesday... fingers crossed!!!

Alright, I got it to run, so will leave this for future generations wasting a week just like me. Step 1. Key to pos 1. Step 2. Negative battery off for 5 mins. Step 3. Negative back on. Step 4. You will see it turning on the dash without asking...

As far as chain stretch goes, my method is no different to the DTI method, it just allows a more accurate setting.

Not sure how battery issues would affect steering on am l322 but yes the battery needs to be tip top! I regularly put mine on charge overnight, the car won't always charge it up to 100% and a proper charge helps keep it in good condition

You're developing an ignition switch fetish young man😜

Good evening everyone, I have given up looking for the fault. I have reassembled everything. Will have to wait until the end of August. Today I tried to check the cables "at the back" but then I realised that the test with the lamp was...

Thanks both, I had the wheel off yesterday and gave the drive shaft a pull and it was defo out, so gave it a good shove back in, heard the click and all was solid. Wheel back on, test drive and it's as though it never happened. Thanks for the...

My steel rule method of final timing the FIP is easier and more accurate than the DTI method in RAVE.

222000 on clock. Engine and gearbox have been changed during my 10 years of owner ship plus airbags, bushes , bearings and loads of other stuff :D

137k 1 set of HG's and lots and lots and lots of petrol...... ;) :)

Coming out of Tesco's this afternoon had to stop to let pedestrians cross. There were 2 oriental lads beaming and smiling at the Rangie. They both got their phones out and started taking pics. Then stood there giving me the thumbs up sign with...

Thankfully mine's been behaving for the last few weeks, busy going to and from night work, a couple of social events, mostly motorway work. I tend to get though about £100-worth of diesel a week, car says 27.8mpg. But that depends on whether me...

New expansion cap on. Now got normal pressure in the system!!

Are you sure it's not just the top cover leaking as was the case on both mine? Easy job in situe if that is the case. The fuel runs down making it appear that there are other joints leaking. No timing problems removing the top cover.
