I had literally never heard of those, so I looked it up, and yeah that looks nice! [Edit] Just read the other replies! Darn it, was a goer for a while!

After I took the D4 for an oil change (as per rebuild warranty requirements) I noticed it was showing as over filled. I had to take it to them for a start-motor refurb so I asked them to check the oil; they said it wasn't very much over and not to worry about it. Now it's got a significant oil...

I guess if you can read the current voltage and mileage, you can figure out the rate of consumption per mile so if you know what your floor voltage is, it shouldn't be too difficult to estimate remaining mileage. What devices are you using? I might do some Googling...

They could if it was the same car. D4 = starter problem, D2 = alternator problem.

D4 starter motor had given up. Stripped and cleaned (not by me) and now good as new :) )

D2 Alternator has been intermittent recently (according to the voltmeter hanging of the dash - fitted by previous owner, probably due to alternator fault) so I've got a solar panel plugged in permanently. Seems to be working ok so far! Is it massive hassle to replace? (the alternator not the...

My Disco 2 has a dodgy alternator so it has a solar panel permanently connected at the mo (It's not my main car) but it seems to be enough to keep the battery topped up. Just wondering if those might help at all given how cheap they are now, or would they be a drop in the ocean, or voltage...

Epson Ecotank all the way. Use whatever ink you want then.

Plan F - move to Barbados! (I'd say move to Spain, but that has the same downsides as plan E)

I replaced the lighter socket with a twin usb socket on my Defender, then realised I had so many different devices (e.g. tyre inflator) that needed a lighter socket! 🤦‍♂️

Fantastic :)

I'm stupidly excited to hear how it goes. You must feel like an expectant father :vb-bouncy3:

All the best of luck! Look forward to hearing the results! :)

But - 20 times as much? I had a quote for £411 from Hastings - seemed a lot but doesn't seem so bad now!

Current insurance is with RAC: £250 but runs out next month. Renewal quote: £4,900 - that's four thousand nine hundred. No claims at all. Hardly driven in fact, These people are on drugs!

D2 Failed MOT on ball joint and indicator wrong colour (?) which I'm pretty happy with. An advisory was the rust on the rear of the chassis. Will do the usual clean and Lanoguard, but I'm thinking it might be an idea to learn how to weld!

I recently had the engine rebuilt, usual issue. Got them to MOT it while it was there. Got it back, did the 800 miles before oil change, got the change done and big clangy noise developed. Went back under warranty, garage said it's done 3600 miles before the oil change so can't be repaired under...

Is the relay the one on the far right in the fuse box?

Is there an easy way to test the relay? I guess put a voltage across it and see if the circuit stays closed...

No...:oops:
