But think of the labour charges you’re saving. 👍🙂 Even if I can service my car and just pay for jobs that are beyond me she is solid. So should go in for ages. And I can’t afford to buy another.

Nope. Noise occurs on forward and reverse. I hammered the plates with a cold chisel to maybe bend them away a bit but no good.

😂 It’s already cost me the same as I paid for it. I think it was a bit of a lemon. Endless things. Lots of sensor issues /limp modes Injector issues. Then to cap it all the high pressure fuel valve. So bought it for £5k 120000 miles Spent about 5K on it. 258000 miles now. I love her.

cheers

To be honest mate they are noisy as well. Just left side front and rear 👍

So I’m getting noise from passenger side front and rear. I’ve tried pushing them back from the disc but still makes a horrendous noise. Not all the time though. Anyway general concensus (sounds like a Star Wars character which reminds me of a joke so I’ll head over to that thread in a mo) Is...

Where my daughter lives in Bristol peoples range rovers are getting spray painted. Just stop oil. 🙄😮 ****s. I had to wait 30 mins to get into a town to do a delivery because they were protesting last week.

@gstuart Gary you waffle all you want. Thank you. I really know nothing so so soaking it all up like a sponge. 👍 That d4 map sensor has a hell of a hole. Can you just swap part for part and would it be beneficial?

Hi Weird one. Is it possible my expansion tank is the only one in the world without min and max lines? 🙄 I’ve topped up to about half way. Level was at bottom of tank as in photo

I think some people do some people don’t. I’m going to just because I can 😂 But it’s not like I haven’t a million other really much more important things I need to do.

Cheers Gary I’ve just bought an online version of a Haynes manual so I can see it on my phone and iPad and because they have maintenance plans. I’m sure they used to have exploded parts diagrams but maybe I was wrong. I need to find a how this works sort of thing for the whole car. It’s all new...

Gary Great images and points. Thank you for taking the time. 🙏 I’ve not been able to get the map sensor as clean as yours. I maybe am bring too gentle. Yours looks like new. You used a tooth pick? How far is the sensor in the hole? Or just don’t put anything in the hole. You can se mine looks...

Cheers @lynall they won’t be missed then! are there situations when they are a good thing? Or just a good thing until they start getting noisy?
