Just to say. Filled coolant and it now seems to not be leaking so they must not have filled it up after job and i drove home with it empty. Starting and running but more woah than go and temp going up towards half but only driven short distance...
Good job my MY 2000 P38 is approaching 25,000 miles.
It finally feels like it is "loosening up" quite nicely.
Most problems are due to the rubber elements breaking down and failing.
I am perfectly happy with the performance and see no need for...
Which I imagen with a torque cam , it's almost definitely going to need shimming. I may try to contact a local specialist closer to the time , to see wether I could get them to come out and check for me.
Those numbers don't sound too terrible. I'd be OK with driving it for a while but the front Diff mount sounds like it needs replacing
You will learn how heavy the VCU and propshaft are when it lands on your chest. :oops:
Otherwise it's an easy...
Wish I saw this before I started tearing the dash apart! Is it as simple as piping the internal (behind firewall )pipes to eachother and the external (engine loop) pipes to eachother?
Made a start today, got some bits off but got stuck because I...
Bearings and bush's yes. Chrome repair another matter although minor pitting by filling with an epoxy resin and will last if done right. [well prepared clean surface.]

Then I cleaned the sump...
Then I removed...
Still sounds to me like you are low on gas, enough to make it work but not enough to be good, are they accounting for the extra gas for the rear a/c when they gas it up?
Could be the expansion valve if that is its proper name?
I had a d2 with...
Back from Ireland, FL2 returned 42 mpg overall. Power steering still using a little fluid but cant see any leaks.
Sunflowers grown a couple of feet while I was away and I got a kidney stone which kept me up all last night, eased off today but...
Ac def kicking in as i can feel the difference in the power lol. If im not crazy i think the rear ac are a little colder than the front ones! Although neither are very cold compared to what it used to be. No ac is not an option for me, its...
Thanks, looked at lots of vids, but they seem to have different settings to mine. Most seem to have a tag you access through the base of the seat where the seatbelt is, I have v small hands and can't get in that gap, so not sure about that...
