Happy than a Pig in ****e

The dreaded MOT strikes fear, even into the hardiest of men... but to hear those words PASS and no notifications was the best out come of the day and has releaved alot of stress and worry

...was it your car they passed.....

Yep

My discovery 2 on an 03 plate

Now its time to consider weather to have a major service at a local specialist or just get a minor... shes only done 2500 since the last MOT & service....need the Fuel pressure rregulator done... but I just wanna spend some money on her now shes got her ticket

If you weren't already aware, the FPR leaks due to the ageing of the "o"-rings; A new FPR is about £110 - a new set of FPR "O"-rings is a £5 off Ebay.

Hi Biglad,

What usually causes the FPR to leak, diaphragm of O-rings?

I had to change mine and if I thought the old could be fixed for a fiver I would do it.

Yeh biglad...... If its just the O rings then I would have tried to sort it last year before I busted me back.... but the way I am at the moment I need the job done and I might as well replace the FPR at the same time.... shes drinking fuel and the MPG is crap at the moment... not due to a heavy right foot, dirty MAF or MAP sensors.....and Ive noticed it leaking on the front cross member .....

Challenge at Tongham recommend just replacing it anyway

Hi Charles, all I can tell you is that Cyberprog is selling the kits on Ebay and one forum member has already bought and installed the kit and reports no further leaks.

What more can you say??
