er no it's not a technical response, it is gibbersh English. Sounds like it came from a Chinese translation.

Oh no, I would know that when I was changing the first bolt on the first differential, and I would buy some new bolts and when those bolts arrive I would do the change. This is what I mean by ridiculous comments. Please just give it up.

Yes if you want to research it you can. I am not having any more technical discussions here, I am just laughing at idiots. I am not investing any time in answering questions that involve me doing any work, I am just posting insults in response...

Fink I'd better get changed and go "doon the toon" to buy some "Caillés". Producers' market on tonight but I don't fancy it on my own, although I may change my mind and stay depending on who I see there. Anyway we/I have large amounts of...

Oh I know the answer to this question, I am asking the other person to look it up because they don't know the answer and that shows their lack of understanding, not mine. The point is that it doesn't matter if the example is a 2 wheel drive car...

So with exhaust leaking while pump is running the diaphragm almost certainly needs doing. It was probably that failing that killed the old pump. Valve block has to come out to do it as the valve sits between the blocks highlighted below. The...

Oh no, the bolts that can handle the maximum output of my engine while towing more than the entire weight of my engine will not be able to handle driving at a low RPM with a car that is not towing anything. That is actually a technical response...

no white powder thankfully.

very good for the environment no life with out water sit and observe, wild life increases 10 fold ,most planning laws now are very limited, you can extend your home without planning consent! !

Roll on P21 . . . . :handbag:

Best comment ever! You said "Clearly you are rather over sensitive to anything contrary to what you think you know." Actually that is the perfect description of everyone here, when I responded to their technical comments with facts as to why...

I've chickened out. I need to pick the missis up in a couple of hours from work, don't need any disasters! 110 is off the road waiting on bits. I'll wedge the box lever to 'cold' and roughly fit the clocks back so I can still use it. Do you know...

+1 on check for white powder - if there is the dryer is breaking down & either needs replacing, or new dessicant. Diaphragm leaking could be either dryer powder preventing it from closing, or a split in the diaphragm. Full valve block rebuild...

I'm sure it will boil for a while yet !!

That would work!!! Italian Tank and all that!!!

Oh no, he said cars and he should have said SUV for one of them, I got him!!! Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. No, when I am responding to an insult that is full of lies that avoids the facts I don't need to spend hours being precise as if I was writing a...

I can feel air out of that also , put my finger on it and you can hear the air noise change. Thanks mate god send 👍 What's the best step from here ? Is it a rebuild of the valve block?

All good and MOTed the tester said its a pleasure to work on such a well built car , he commented that he failed 2 FLs last week due to rust and bits falling of I nearly choked for laughter 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁 Solved the problem, drive in reverse all the...

Although this is fun I am seriously considering switching off notification to this thread as I seriously have better things to do than cross swords, or handbags, with this guy with a massive ego problem. Keep on trucking with it peeps as I will...

I stopped having technical discussions about this question a long time ago. How many times do you need me to say that to you before you get it? Something as simple as getting different bolts is not a big issue, so it is irrelevant to whether...

No that's the compressor inlet filter. The exhaust silencer (not filter - my bad) is at the back of the block. It just unscrews by hand.

After I installed I ran the car for 10 mins with the door open and still didn't rise , I took that off and I could feel air put my finger on the port it made a bit of suction.

So one out of three was actually an SUV? Well done! and of course the BMW you mentioned is exactly like a RR, same weight, 4 wheel drive etc etc. Yep your apples still do look much like oranges to me. So you "got me" on the Mercedes M class...

Just to be sure you mean this right ?

I did not get ideas, I got insults. But when I did get ideas I responded to the ideas with facts and I got told that I was an idiot without any mechanical knowledge. You will never understand that but it is OK because we are now on 19 pages of...

Take the little exhaust filter out & check if there's air from the port while pump is running. If there is, then the diaphragm valve is leaking. That valve is on the same 12V that the pump uses, so it should engage together with the pump...

@Blob thanks for these. The horn diagram would seem to be correct, however the washer shows 2 x relay but the car shows on 1 x washer relay suggesting that this may not be correct?

Clearly you are rather over sensitive to anything contrary to what you think you know. Most of the comments early in this thread were why it might not be a good idea. You took them as direct critisim rather than answer in a technical manner...

Don't you understand that I'm not actually having a logical discussion with you as to whether you work for somebody or not? I am just responding to a personal direct insult that said that because I am self-employed I must be a horrible person...

I have just checked the relay operation for these two items (going by the top of the fuse/relay cover in engine bay) and the horn relay operates suggesting a dead horn - need to get hold of one (eBay here I come) The washer relay doesn't...
