That's partly why I got mine so mother could get in and out, then she went into hosital and never came out so never got to try it.
My brother had a new hip fitted today so it will come in handy when I pick him up from hospital next week.:D

Brakes on one of my P38's seem quite sharp. the other one they are a bit wooden and need a harder push, I think it's down to the brake pad material.
If there is air in one of the front brake lines, it's likely to pull to one side when braking hard.

I didn't notice it pulling one way or the other, but I'm sure the pedal goes down further than it did

Possibly air in the modulator, equally it may just be that the new modulator has different characteristics, as I said my 2 are markedly different.
Have you tried a full on emergency stop?
Otherwise you could do the bleed routine again.

Didn't get the opportunity to do an emergency stop, but managed to get the tc and abs engaged, didn't have any issues
 
After the vehicle is running and just stopped, the fluid in the pipe system is still held under pressure from the pump and accumulator for a while. After some time the valve block might leak back some of the fluid back into the chamber, if a NR valve is not sealing fully, which makes the level rise. Not really an issue as the fluid gets drawn back into the system the next time it fires up and the level goes back down.="kermit_rr, post: 5263698, member: 150759"]Struggled a bit with the fluid level, thought it was on the money, put the lid on and few mins later it was over flowing :eek: seems ok now i think[/QUOTE]

Took the old bus to the old bus to the stables some people I know are trying to get the hang of horse riding..

So I took 'em in the RR.

Let the air out the tyres?

How do you know that the engine is getting "2-3c warmer? From memory, on the diesel, the gauge will stay around the 12 0clock position from about 85C to 100C

I always run with 'torque' Android app running.
Yes the idiot gauge always sits at 12 o'clock, but the app gives actual temp measured at the sensor.
Normally it's at 91-92 while driving, going up slightly going up a hill etc but today is running at 93 and quickly rising to 94-95 when i slow down
 
Found out my water pump is starting to fail so looks like I might be taking her off the road over the winter and spruce her up. Seems low on power so going to go for a top end rebuild I think
