Hello all. After the hand brake kept sticking on ( not often) after coming through some wet stuff, but not very deep, third of a tyre.I wondered about a rear brake o/haul. last i did work on them I changed the wheel cylinder and lubed all the usual and renewed the hand brake cable, The shoes...

Thanks for all your replies. Interesting comments, of course during lock down it didn't move much, and if it did it was only very short haul. I get in normal years an average of 280-300mls per £50.00 fill up. mix motoring, as I say, on cold mornings I let it tick over for ten mins before setting...

Hello all. Flicking through stuff, i always keep fuel receipts and note the mileage each year. After some local fill up stations were found to be fiddling at the pumps some time back. So, in this lock down year I spent £690.00 on Diesel, £21.00 on a filter kit, £31.00. On 5w40. Full synthetic...

Thanks Nodge68. Just to ask. What is the best way to change the fluid?? Cheers

Hello Pals. Given that that the car is a 2003 model, and has probably never had a fluid change. I thought it would be a good idea to do one, or is it? I can't find the service period for the fluid change. Or the best way to go about it. At a 120,000 mls. surly it's best practice to do a fluid...

Cheers Sir. thanks for the reply. Very helpful. Gary.

Hello all. Recently re- piped the turbo vacuum pipes in silicon and looks very well. Problem is, because its been so long since I did the EGR bypass I have forgot which pipe to plug to stop the Duck noise. The thread on the subject of EGR bypass is very long and thought this would be a quicker...

Sounds like now the best time then, :)

UP DATE. Thanks . As it it goes...since cleaning the spade connector with some light sand paper/emery cloth and a wipe, all has been good! Which for me, I should know at my age...Do the basic's first.. ALL IS WELL THAT ENDS WELL. Cheers all.

Thanks Nodge68. The nut is tight and any further attempt twists the whole thing, so, Got a bit of sand paper and cleaned the spade connector and replaced the plug. So far its continued to work as normal. If things change, I'll get another. Big Thanks to those that have contributed. Great Forum!

Hello Nodge68. Thanks for your time on this. With a mirror and torch, it would seem I did connect the spade connector back up, and it Is secure. So, Given it's the stud I tap when the starter won't work, and the the nut holding the cable from the battery, should Ihave cleaned it up better when...

Erm well.just looked at the pics when i did the job, and can make out what could be the tab connector. I am sure I never connected it. Would the starter still work??

Thanks Nodge68 for your reply. Just can not see the the tab wire connector on mine?? not even a space for it. Cheers

Just to ask. Is there any difference in starter motor, auto box or manual? Cheers

Would seem the best route. Thanks to all for your replies. Cheers.

Thanks Paul99 But before I go there, was looking to find out if the stud that the cable from the Batt can be tightened with out removing it from the car. If not, then it means stripping the motor. Cheers
