Still not managed to sync key - for 2001 model and also in the handbook it says the key should sync in the ignition. Currently unlocking doors manually. I am a but worried about wearing out the microswitch in the door though.

We've actually Airsprings in stock at work but only arnotts and they'll be £80+VAT to me even. So I think order them and save the pennies even though I could get them off the shelf right now - Don't need them until the weekend

Air springs ! Everyone can remain calm!!!

Brilliant. Job for the weekend. Going to get some springs on order too.

It'll all be done myself. Far too cheap to pay someone else to do it! Anyone used westway oils? Dexron 3 ATF is only £45 ish for 10L - Assuming that's roughly the amount I'll need

I’ll take that. Not often you get a good surprise about parts cost

30 around town calculated. It must be said it was a manual and I’m the most ginger driver ever! I’ll have a look out for that guide. I’ve seen mention of the valve block bolts. just a quick one, does this seem the right service kit...

Led on the button flashes yes. I’m going to give it a good go after work. Just completed a 50 mile round trip. Finally long enough to enter the radio code after waiting ages

Sorry guys, another one. Two hook shaped lines on the firewall side of the manifold. I’ve taken a photo, are these supposed to plug in anywhere?

Edited it so I don’t get a load of replies about the battery size before people scroll and realise it’s got the correct battery

It’s had a new battery since - it’s got 1100cca in now.

23/24 I’d be fairly happy with. it’s due a filter and oil change anyway. If not for improving it then just for longevity, Just replaced the key battery. How long do you have it in the ignition to sync? I turned mine on. Let it run for maybe less than a minute admittedly and turned it off...

I don’t want to jinx myself. But it’s been an incredibly solid car. Pretty much everything’s been done on it. Body is a mess but it’s mechanically in good fettle. Day two update on the p38 Definitely going to do a gearbox oil and filter change. Nothing super wrong but I’m only getting 18mpg...

Just looking through history, pump was a brand spanker in 2019. Since 2019 according to mots it’s done 3 miles. So hopefully just springs and I’m done!

Quick question also guys. I’m not worried about the EAS at all. I actually work funnily enough for the company that makes the defender air suspension kits (On Air Suspension) I am however slightly hard of hearing. Does anything signify the compressor running apart from listening for the...

Hi guys. Back home. Uneventful journey, forgot how slow these are but then again I’ve been daily driving a 944 for 2 months! Drove home zero issues, everything working, MAP vaccum line looked to of fallen off and that sped things up. airsprings will definitely need replacing. It had a new...

Cheers Guys. off to collect it at 5pm I’ll report back

Passed MOT - Garage rang me to say they've checked all the oil levels including gearbox and after a drive around the block it's much better Think I'm going to go for it

I'm assuming it wants to be left in the closed position. Does this affect running in any way?

Thanks for the pointers. Likewise I'm fairly certain it's a non issue. The fuel is extremely old and the whole vehicle has been sat. It's genuinely a spotless car. I'll keep you all updated
