    Series 3 radio installation

    I'm awaiting all the bits , I'll need to order some brown and white wire for switched live / live . Does the radio need to be fused or is it ok as I'm piggy backing from fuse box ? Also what gauge wire do I need? , Thanks .

    Series 3 radio installation

    I have for the last 10 years tried my best to keep the landy original , however now that you can get Bluetooth radios from eBay for a tenner (shipped!, I've already got one it's actually good! ) I'm going to put a pretty low key one into the dash. I have a few questions. I've fitted fog lights...

    Series 3 Rear cross member repair

    There is a hole in the rear cross member , it's pretty big , I've squared it off and it's about the size of a mobile phone , I'm going to weld a patch in , however the good metal , ( and I have gone right back ) is not very thick , about 3mm , should I just order some 3mm steel patches from...

    Everything still works without fuses

    It seems that my fusebox is pointless because if I remove all of the fuses everything still works ! , I've been told that this means that there is a live feed on the wrong side of the fuses , how would I go about finding out where this positive is coming from , I'm assuming that it's a spade...

    Series 3 Layshaft bearing query

    I have a small update (it's cold outside! ) the yellow plunger does go down and stay , the red stick goes forward ,central and back and is still attached to the rod which it is clearly pushing in and out , I am going to take off the front cover to see if the other 2 rods are moving , just 1...

    Series 3 Layshaft bearing query

    Yeah , I've sort of come to the same conclusion , strange thing is that it drove 5 mins before , I'll try and degunk it in the morning , the yellow lever does seem to be going down and holding though but I'm hoping that that's all it is. I've got the tunnel out at the moment so that probably...

    Series 3 Layshaft bearing query

    This is the thing , I can go into reverse and all gears quite easily , its just the noise , I had come to the conclusion that it was the layshaft bearing , however a lot of people state that if this is the case reverse gear will not be possible , is this the case because if it is I can tick...

    Series 3 Layshaft bearing query

    Am I right in thinking that if a layshaft bearing has gone on my series 3 2.5 petrol that I would not be able to go into reverse ? . I have no way to get the gearbox out and no money to pay for it to be done . I also have a exhaust , indicator stalk and footwell to repair so I'm thinking about...
