C’mon - I know it’s holiday season and all that, but has nobody been ignoring this while I’ve been busy? @MGT

Fitted a set of roof rails onto mine today. Have just bought a set of LR roof bars to go onto the rails, so I can stick my roof box onto it later this year…

Must admit, I left the exhaust connected at the front when I changed the rear subframe. Just wrestling the rear end down onto supports was bad enough (on your back, on the floor, on your own)

Nice one. Well done!

At least it’ll come back. My daughter ‘borrowed’ my F1 when I got my F2 and it never came back. She is now the proud owner of it… uses it as her daily. Of course, she paid for it - not!

No, a cam censor should not look like that! IIRC, and assuming the petrol is the same principle, back-probing the wires you should find a 12v supply, a signal and a ground. The signal should give around 5v. Your ‘odd’ readings are indicative of a duff sensor. Yours has 2 I believe - have you...

Possibly just an air lock and no damage done - fingers crossed for you

Yes - as per your other post and the advice given, check your camshaft sensors first, before disappearing down bigger rabbit holes! A faulty cam sensor can cause starting issues, especially when the engine is warm.

You’re going to struggle to get much more height out of it without causing issues. Lift kits are great, but will likely cause you longer term wear issues with driveshafts, due to the new angles created. I believe you can go up a tyre size to 245 65 with no problems, but you’d need to confirm.

There is a chance the pump has been damaged. Others here may be able to reasonably confirm from the noise and the info above. @Nodge68 ?

When you did the work on the steering pump etc., did you follow the correct method for bleeding the system after, without starting the engine? And using the correct fluid?

Very nice … and welcome!

Defo a Renault… 25 perhaps?

When you say “it’s a disaster waiting to happen”, do you mean your FL going bang, or doing more damage? Because that’s what will happen if you keep ignoring it. You’ll find most modern cars go into a limp-mode when a problem is detected, not just a FL2. Maybe get the fault diagnosed and...

THAT rare?!? Blimey.

The lead is much longer on my FL2

Recalibrate it first… With the tailgate closed, disconnect the battery, then reconnect it. The tail window will drop down. Then switch on ignition and raise the window all the way to the top using the button in the car. Release the button - window should now be calibrated.
