I haven’t inflated it anymore, the battery is off and that was the bag stretching as the axle was lowered. All sorted now though

Update… found that I could deflate the bag from the compressor end

Morning all, I’m struggling here, so I’ve jacked up the vehicle and allowed the rear axle to drop right down however I cannot get the bag out. As the pipe on the top is held in by a hex nut I cannot access it to undo the pipe and as the bag is under pressure I can’t just slip it out, many...

Yes, if you zoom in on the picture you can see it’s a 10mm hex head. As access is so tight I assume I need to lower the hub rugby right down to allow me to lower the inflated bag down a bit so I can unscrew the bag ?

Folks I’m removing the rear suspension airbag to allow me to weld the chassis behind it where it’s become a bit holy. My question is of all the removals guides on YouTube when removing the airline it usually is a bayonet fitting that you push then pull the airline out. On mine it doesn’t have...

That’s good to hear.. on the whole she’s a solid truck. Got a little bit of plating to do o the chassis with some 2mm steel and then protect the chassis again. The arches have been the same on my last 3 discos

Morning folks, What have people done, EGR delete/blank off? is it worth the effort? 2004 TD5 cheers Ben

So it’s definitely the alternator. I’ve booked it in at the garage to be swapped. Is this a job I could have tackled myself or is it better off leaving it to someone with a ramp etc?

Hi Folks, in the last day or so I noticed my 04 TD5 was sounding laboured when starting her up. So I checked battery and voltage was low 11.6v. Started her up and the voltage stayed at 11.4V so I can see she’s not charging. I checked the fuses in the engine bay and when I saw F1 I was faced...

Thank you

Where Can I get the replacement parts from? Many thanks, Ben
