Took out the gunk, had the metal plugs installed behind. Think i will leave the metal plugs as they are, add a blob new sealant then paint over

Will do!

Cheers. Are they just casting holes? I plan to remove and reseal i guess.

Hi Sorry if this is obvious, but Im tearing down my first engine, a Discovery 200TDI What are these 3 holes filled with sealant, one either side of fuel lifter, then one on side of vacuum pump housing? Cheers

Just thought i should post my initial findings on the carsoft i930 for my L322 4.4 Got it 2 days back and seems pretty good for £90 delivered. Reset a number of faults inc air suspension (i changed battery and this starting appearing) Can also read data which is useful, like temps and...

Actually there is nothing to try. Error comes up soon as key in before I can select neutral Today I got error several times when cold. So this evening (car not used since 8am) I put key in and out a few times real quick in case some contact was stuck. Then put in as normal and.....no error...

Will give that a try

Still working through my issues and niggles with the 2002 L322 4.4, and now looking at another intermittent issue. put key in and failsafe message appears and no drive letters on dash. key off, and on again, all ok. sometimes does this right after starting too, or just before, but never once...

I missed something. For no reason whatsoever when i did the block test via the expansion tank, i created something of a vacuum by pumping the rubber bulb of the tester quite a bit, with engine off. At ths time i could hear hissing from what seemed like radiator bottom, and soon as i took...

I have had my 2002 4.4 V8 Vogue now or just a few weeks and starting to find some issues. After just a week my prop/diff coupling splines went leaving me stranded but managed to get that sorted for not much money. Now i have two other niggling issues i want to sort out. First, coolant...

Hi, As ive sold my p38 im gonna sell on my faultmate fcr. Its hardly been used and ive contacted blackbox solutions about a transfer of ownership so you can enable it for you car. Let me know if anyone interested.

Got an fcr, does what it says but pricey for a one car locked tool really

You know i am trying to convince myself its not a cracked block or head.... Not sure the mrs will put up with many more 'just a couple bits for the car' :-)

I had somewhat similar symptoms, or maybe still have....:-) On another tread called overheating still.... One thing i found was rad overflow outlet was deffo blocked. I took the small hose off and reved car with cap off (cold) and got nothing but dribbles. In fact you should see water flowing...

Ok, its really only just off, i think one turn on drag link adjuster or less would do it, but if it knocks box off center too much i guess its intermediate shaft off again (pain in the ass getting that off doing head gaskets) and move a spline or two. Maybe i put it back wrong, but even i...

Update Well rad still flowing well and got new cap today (my previous one rattled too by the way) Been out and about and seems fine so far. Top hose not super hard, i can squeeze it a bit. No white smoke, performance good Only thing i noticed last night after a run was coolant had dropped...

Hi guys On this subject i fitted new drag link and track rod for mot last week. I took them off, centered steering box (raised notch on outer back ring on box to mark on box) then refitted. I then had wheel alignment done. Steering wheel is just off center, so can i just adjust drag link...

Hi all, Ok rad off and flushed. Looked pretty clean tbh, and water flowing well except for overflow. Clamped a hose on that and give it a flush. Now, all back and filled as suggested. The thing i noticed right away was jet of water coming from rad expansion outlet when revved! As i said this...

All, thanks for the help so far, update this morning Before car started, coolant at right level, top hose normal, not collapsed or solid etc so all well to start. Absolutely no sign of oil in water or vice versa. No smell of exhust gases either. Took small radiator to tank hose off, some...
