Where exactly on the 300 TDi engine, do we fit a sunroof? Almost finished building mine and may consider this a worthwhile addition. :vb-headscratch:

Although there is a bit of play I have seen worse. I'd be tempted to remove the drive flange and see if the nut behind it is done up properly. Over time the splines in the places where the half shafts meet the centre of the differential wear...

I have the special socket

Eye heard about the fake will scamners ont radio. Eye fort all wills had to go on a register wiv a copy.

Except for the 9/16th spanners to remove the propshaft/ U/js. I had to order them speshul from UK to Frogland when I needed to replace the cardan jointed one!

That's most probably where his nest is in the glove box😄

Put the trap under your FL, they like sniffing around rubbish ----- 😂

Nice to see its cooler. Bit ov rain last nite. Not much. Patio dried out quick. Put some bacon out fer kev last nite. Still there smornin. Baby squirrel on me fence eating a nut and watching me frew the kitchen window.

Morning All. :D Poor night's sleep. Wifey had a little cry y'day it is all getting a bit much for her. :( Have a good day. :D

I expect you have seen this already, but it does give pause for thought to you, your missus and any of us who have drawn up wills. It certainly made us rethink. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cx2390x51zqo

That's Corkies for you...🤪

Realistically there was only thirty bob's worth of damage as it was only a FL wot got torched 🤣

well you've got 3 peeps now telling you to ignore the stuff you have found and to just get on and enjoy it. So I hope you do!!! ;););)

Go & find some young yoofs to race of the lights. Then plugs look good to me. It runs & drives. Enjoy it while the suns out

I know I should but I am an arse when it comes to trying to get things "right" and understand why they are not "right". A character flaw on my part I am sure. If other "mini-folk" tell me that this is not abnormal I can stand down I am sure.

They look very acceptable, especially as the condition of rings and bores is an unknown, if it runs well enough for your liking, leave it alone and go and enjoy it !

some pictures would be good Kevstar, I’m looking for middle set plus fixings and belts. Am I allowed to give you my email on this site? Demelza

Seriously, those don't look bad at all. It may now be down to valve disparity. I.e. slight difference in how they seal. Recheck the tappets and compression on all cylinders. If you are seriously that bothered, nothing there to worry about.😉
