I have seen the bonnet opened on one in the same situation using a metal rod poked up from underneat and lots of poking around, took a while but can be done it seems. Failing that jack up under front somewhere to give some clearance to get in, use sone axle stands of some sort though first...

@Mr S1 Was wondering anything ever come of the go pro footage?

Cheers, that makes alot of sense as did have issues with scncro on a couple of gears but seems ok now changed oil.

Did like the step. Anyone want to take a guess what this is, it came out my gearbox when i changed oil. Dosent look like it has sheared/broken at all all sides are machined. Some kind of key? All seems to work ok without it. Nice and smooth now i have changed oil too.

Switching to the 235 i was able to wind the steering stops in a bit, it has made enough difference that im not constantly doing 3 point turns. Had to do a propper emergency stop other day on wet road, i was amazed how well it stopped and didnt break grip even a little.

Definatly up for another trip, iv got some decent tyres now so keen to try them out.

I know this is an age old argument and always stirs up opinions but i am very glad i went for a thinner tyre (235 from the original 265). Worked out a fair bit cheaper and so far seems better in every way. No noticeable drop in road holding and much much better in mud. I have also heard many...

Untill last week i had AT grabbers 265 70 16on my pickup, was unsure what to go for next sane as you. I brought some second hand cooper discoverer MT to try in 235 85 16. Best thing i ever did. No noticable negetives just a very slight drop in mpg, althougj this could be caused by driving faster...

Just curious guys, any reason cb's are more popular than hand held pmr type radios, they are so good these days. Is it a range/ receptipn thing or just tradition to use cb.

Where did you buy from, when i looked at some before i couldnt decide between the different sizes and thicknesses, what size did you go for?

Had a great day was good to meet everyone, looking forward to another trip, cheers daveygti for arranging. Was very happy with how navara got on, was worried it might be useless, think it could do with some better tyres fir de5eoer mud. The last lane we did on way back was interesting, lots of...

Yep all set for tomorrow, meeting stuart 8:30, cafe for 9:30 ish.

no probs bud, Will be nice tbh to have sone company in the truck. Should warn ya though its noisy, like sitting in a box of spanners falling down the stairs, and smells of wet dog.

Just had a look at the map, not sure where we will end up but chances are i will be heading back in the general direction of the cafe on way home anyway so cant see it being an issue to drop you back to your car.

Ah didnt realise you were still stuck for a ride, i have room and would be happy to share with ya, where abouts are ya though as im coming up from southanptom way ?

Wish i could wait for a break in tje weather, Today is my last chance due to working away all next week, im currently very wet and cold repairing diff breathers in about a foot of mud and torrential rain, itl proberbly be glorious sun all next week haha.

I think its 50/50 at the moment if i will bring p38 or navara, will proberbly come down to a toss of a coin on the morning to decide wich will give me less problems. But will definatly be one or other. Had a look on youtube at some of the lanes mentioned, look good some good sceneary etc. Bit...

Had similar issue with mine when it was damp. Most issues were sorted out by cleaning ground connections on the electrical system and fitting a new battery. These vehicle's dont like low voltages and they have a very high drain even when parked up. I have a current issue with the ecu suddenly...

www.hughesguides.com Alot of good info can be found here, it does require a subscription/payment but may be of interest to someone who wants detailed info on anything regarding traffic/vehicle regs etc. I have found it very valuable not just for vehicle related things. It was recomended to me...

Another vote for the led bars shown in earlier posts, i have driven vehicles with them fitted and its like driving in daylight. Best mounted in front not on roof. Loads of model's to choose from so you will find one that fits your needs. Its not that the mountain or the woods make them dim, op...
