No Idea who fitted it, just know it seems to work fine. But after I rebuilt the engine I noticed (after battery had been disconnected for a few months) it didn't run to well on gas. Connected the BIgas software and checked the settings, all seemed OK, but Lambdas where not registering a value...

Hi All, I have managed to accumulate a few faults now on the RR that might warrant buying a Nanocom. ABS Relay went and now I can't find any problems now replaced but the lights flash when applying the brakes for a second? I believe my Lambdas are not reading? Bigas lpg software doesn't...

Cheers for the help, much appreciated. Google time.

Right Thanks, I will change the relay and see where that gets me. Do you know where the best place to get one is? Preferably quick? I think the pressure switch must be still working, because it did switch of the last time I checked it. I must admit, I am near my overdraft limit at the...

The contact looks like it has been stuck together and then cracked apart. Sorry the pics are pants, looked ok on the phone. You can see its melted and fused. I will check your thread out clarky cheers.

Right, pulled the relay apart, definitely the offending item. The pump took about, 30 45 seconds i reckon. the level in the brake fluid reservoir is normal with engine off. What do you think? replace the relay and try it? This must have been sticking and then releasing when hot cold...

aerofabrique, just pulled the relay and gave it a sniff, doesn't seam burned. Got a new fuse box just before I bought it. Turned the ignition on and the pump, a bit noisy with bonnet open, pumped up in about 20 seconds then cut off. Brake pedal hard but lights still on. Tc went out but when I...

I have just nearly wiped out a corsa that stuck its nose out of a junction on the way home from work. Stopped at shop and noticed a the hydraulic brake pump was still running, a bit quieter than usual and at the same pitch. Went the shop, got back in and drove off, tested brakes and noise...

I have just broken down, well nearly crashed. I can't believe it. Thank god this didn't happen in Cornwall. Brakes have just failed had to weave through a gap. All lights are now on on the dash. Serves me right for mentioning it hey.

Right, just did 123miles on gas from full at 70mph (on sat nav) filled (different shell garage) to full again took 35.28 litres 7.76 gallons works out at just over 15 mpg. Average mpg for the journey displayed on the computer was 20mpg. It is definately not psychic! Plus point managed to...

Ok rekon its sorted. Used a 7mm I'd by 1.5 mm o ring. Cleaned pipe with some fine emery and wrapped ptfe around the seal. Seams to have done the trick.

Well thought i had done it with some ptfe tape over the oring, no such luck. Fed up with this dam seal.

Rave says seal it with something. Can't think what it is now. No o ring fits on the 4.6 does it.

What method have you used to seal the dipstick tube. Tried ptfe tape and loctite black silicon. What do you use. Just rebuilt the engine and its the only oil leak, help its diving me mad.

Yep, I have decided that pipes must be slightly different at the end. As usual found the cheapest replacements I could. New o-ring and wrapped ptfe tape around the oring and the pipe end. Don't want to speak to soon, but its ok at the moment. Not good though when you need to do these things...

Just thought I would ask if anybody else has had a problem with sealing this dam pipe. First o-ring I got with the hose I eased in quite carefully then carefully wound the backing nut into the pump to hold it in. This started weaping after after using it once, very slightly. Took it out...

I have had mine 6 months, Changed oil filter when I bought it Changed Coolant after decided there was not enough antifreeze in it (the start of my problems and proably the flush that removed the irontite?) Matrix seals New matrix Overhauled vapourisers Diff seals, (need flanges at some point)...

OK, revisiting this one since I seem to have finished all the other problems for now, I have been weighing up putting it on the right of the engine bay but this means it will be too near the manifolds for my liking, space down there is limited. anyone know if you can get a small windscreen...

When my block was cracked the coolant still had a bit of pressure in the morning and when up to temp it would blow coolant out of the expansion tank if reved for a bit over 3k. Mine also had a uneaven vibration high up the revs like it was missing on a cylinder or something. Just keep an eye...

If you have a look at my posts cracked block diagnosis, photos of cylinders and gaskets you would generally pick it up visually (I could in my case). Mine had similar symptoms as yours. Ran ok but boot it and the combustion gas built up in the top hose when hot, water used to slowly dissapear...
