well Ive finally had enough of the stupid door mechanism inside the front and second row doors...its simply now impossible to open any of them from the handle inside... they are the lifty up handle type on the outside (its an '84) the latches themselves are VERY similar looking to Series 2/3...

I put a new-un on a couple of weeks ago as my battery light was staying on after start up until i revved it...now with the new alternator, when i use anything electrical the bloody light comes on! its like having 2 indicator warning lamps!! arrghhh!!! Im guessing the new alternators pants unless...

I have the type pictures below & I seem to be unable to get it to work correctly. with the key in, I can rotate the lock so that the claw mates with the staple that is attached to the underside of the bonnet...however the barrel does not turn freely of the lock body at any point to actually...

In the 110, (84 12j), unless we change gear VERY gently letting the clutch pedal back up, we get a clunk noise from under the front seats, like theres play somewhere... The prop UJs "seem" fine but wouldnt rule them out...could there be play in the tranny box output flanges does anyone know?

Ive had the amigos on for 3 weeks now...its being plugged in tomorrow...odd thing is in that time, my battery has been going more flat each week & tonight so low I had to jump start.Alarm went off & everything! I also have a split charge installed for 2 years now & when I was trying to start it...

Evenin all.. well the 110 is having its mot tomorrow after a 12 month rebuild...:D Have noticed a possible steering issue on the way home in it tonight though... The steering return is quite poor..as in rather than self centering out of a corner it is required to assist this by turning...

Hey all we're off on a little camping jaunt soonish but cant decide between Wales or Scotland.... we like the thought of Wales cos of the lanes but we're tempted by the scottish scenery...where there are no "byways". We do like the thought of wild camping in Scotland but as there are no lanes I...

Just some info that might answer the numerous threads on "will it won't it?" If you wish to run this set up then you will have NO issues with tyre rub on your arches at all...in fact there is still a good 20mm of space between the tyre & arch when sidewards...and to the "you shouldn't have done...

Hey all, happy new year & all that ! Thoughts please... I currently run 265/75/16 on 7j alloys with a 2" lift with no rubbing issues & no modified arches. Im looking at going to some 8j steels with a 25mm offset. Im pretty certain the tyre tread will not jump an inch in width when on an 8j...

Ive just signed up to Rover Rescue, run in conjunction with Essex LR Club. Can anyone suggest where I might qualify myself as a first aider and how much I should expect to pay? cheers

Need to renew the fecker but on inspection I have found a nut-stud type Im not familiar with. The 3 studs stick out the manifold to mount the front pipe to, they are held on with nuts...but on after the nuts it looks like a washer on each one that might prevent a socket going on there.. Is...

Yeah Yeah I know they all do but Im going to sort the worst out. First is the one in the picture which is at the front, bottom of the engine behind the bottom pulley. It looks like a possible wading plug hole as its threaded. Second...halfway down the dipstick, oil comes out like a tap...

Hey all can anyone who has taken part in trials give me a rough idea of what to expect at a TYRO? cheers Foss

Evening all. This is a strange one. When coming off throttle at about 40-50mph I get a metallic vibration sound from the drivers side engine bay.like how you would imagine a metal pipe vibrating on a chassis to sound.it goes below 40.its not steering related and has only started on the last 100...

Who went ? Didn't see any other landyzone stickers in windows and was most unimpressed I didn't get best disco in show ! Traffic home was obscene...4 hours to Essex !

anyone know if a td5 sump will come off if i remove the gearbox crossmember but dont jack it up? its got a 2" lift... I cant jack it up as its on a 20 degree side slope & cant start it to move it as the sump plug is a gonner :( cheers ears

Can anyone tell me if the 2 sumps are interchangeable please? (sheered sump plug....ps it was fitting Difflock's Drain Plug that did it...standard torque is way too tight for it) :mad: cheers guys

When turning left I have a drone which is shouting at me right hand hub assembly :doh::doh: (£££'s & a humdinger torque wrench) Anyone have any other ideas before I bite the bullet ?

I will be at some point replacing the lower door frame with repair sections. On all of my doors I have so much missing I dont know what Ill need to get it near enough right in relation to the check rods. :mad: I have the early type (front ones pictured) which simply bolt one end to the body...

Has anyone ever found these items to buy other than those that include the B/C posts that are £300 upwards? I need to replace them on the 110...as most of them are missing through rust... Otherwise Ill fab some up myself cheers foss
