Stoped after accelerating from a red cheapo scanner suggests fuel issue I just put half a tank in any ideas https://postimg.cc/hhSSrGRX

my guess is the short hose top front and center of the engine. the stealer will quote you about 150 as they do not do the hose on its own?!?! its a complete pipe from intercooler - got mine off ebay about £20

so i hooked up the blackberry last night, all good this morning. I noticed when i was doing it there was no sign of the pie phone in the set up?!? and i got a low battery display up on the radio - the phone was fully charged and i thought a low battery for the car would be on the dash...

lol yea i would feel the wheel as this after all is a big heat sink for the brakes, if all is normal there wont be much heat - if any if somethign is amiss you will be able to feel it. Good call on the inferred thermometer, im saving up for a flir.... WRT to fumes in the cabin - check your...

Got it more reliable by shortenig the name of the phone and taking out an ' which showed as a ? Haven't been brave enough to install the blackberry yet lol might give it s go today.

The good wifes phone keeps failing to connect - when i look at it to ix it i dont really do anyhthing, its still there and it just seems to connect. its a pie phone 10 and she sports a pie watch. I recon its limitations of blue tooth and 2 devices basically doing the same thing?!?!? anyone seen...

Back in the day I upgraded my 86 Audi coupe quattro to 100Ws all round, H4s and H7s so that was 400W main beam - before LEDs came about - but they have metal buckets and glass lenses with high watts you could melt the plastics - oh and a wiring upgrade to carry the extra current. The road was...

burning oil off a pot or low compression - loose injectors? no such thing as a mechanic anymore - just fitters ( should state that's the stealers)... sounds mad to replace all without any further investigation. at least pull the head to have a look!?!??! if the cylinders are beside each other...

is the td4 not the transit engine , so round the world and back?

ive been looking to get the v2.0 but funds always seem to have to go else where these days http://www.diagnostic-world.com/pages/land_rover_best_diagnostic_tool_251596.cfm

thats bugging me - cant find it again myself - a quick google i got this "Had this happen in my rover too. All you do is....with the power off, key out of ignition...pull the 15 amp fuse for the sunroof out for a few seconds...then reinstall it...make sure it is not blown 1st....then start the...

i had the same problem when i got mine fuse good sunroof dead - i did read somewhere that the fuse had to be removed for x amount of minutes - this is what got me back up and running. still haven't calibrated it yet though - might try pulling the fuse when its open to calibrate lol. really cant...

there is an instruction in the FL2 repair manual. Basically disconnect the return and extend to a catch container. Attache and seal a 4 liter funnel to the reservoir and fill. Start the engine and rotate the steering whell lock to lock 3 times at approx 1 revolution every 5 seconds. then seal...

Looking for a boost hose the short one attaches to the manifold and was told dealers only. - that'll be £115 + vat sir - sorry what, the hose is only about 5 inches long. I know but it comes as part of a kit you have to buy the complete assembly down to the inter-cooler. got one ordered off ebay £17

Thanks Hippo - wife came back last night and said noise is way worse and there's a power loss - thankfully brown trouser moment turned into red face moment - took it for a drive and it was a loud wooosh noise under acceleration with loss of power, yep you guessed it - split boost hose - the one...

Sorry, there's more than just enough essential parts....

So got home the good wife was out and no reports of noise. By the time she got home the noise was there so only noisey when warm. Aux blet off noise gone. Pulled power steering header with the aim of a reverse flush to try and prove something. The fluid was that dark it was hard to tell the...

its back with a vengeance, only happens at high revs > 3K when idle and from about 2K when driving. Looking at the sticky steering post i think this is worth a check. so steps tonight - check for surge of power steering fluid return in the header tank ( filter check) is it an easy job to clean...

yeah its a busy forum - like that. I have an interesting video the tensioner resembling a yo-yo but wasn't able to upload. Another noise came in that i never noticed before, but it is more random and like a loose something on the engine. i sort of recognize it (big hollow type sound if that...

so the noise changed to something that was more easy to find - the aux belt tensioner had started to fail and was springing in and out £80 later for anew belt and tensioner and the noise is gone. had it changed in under 30 minutes but took that again to get new screws and catches to re-attach...
