So I have been driving my 'new' series 3 and I have notices that it squeaks when you pull away in 1st and also when you are in 3rd.. It seems to go away when you give it some beans.. but it might just be that you can't hear it over the rest of the noise.. does anyone know what this could be?
It also appears to have some leaks, which I understand that are generally accepted as normal with a landrover, but I would like someone to have a look at the pics I took, since there seems to be leaks with the front wheel swivel things and the gearbox thing.. Leaks - Imgur
The charge light came on when I was driving home from work last night, I looked in the manual but it didnt really say what it means other than it is the charge light.. I assume it could be an alternator issue?
Also when you start it up you have to keep your foot on the accelerator or it stalls, which makes the first few junctions interesting until it warms up.. I'm guessing this might be a carb issue? (I'm not mechanically minded at all, bought this to learn!)
Thanks in advance for any advice.
