Rib?

Yes you could. May be worth chatting with dvla to see what to do. On the rear bodywork is there a number plate ?

Ah. Thanks Phil. That puts things in to perspective for me. We have no idea where the V5 would be. Could we get one with a VIN No.?

Stop worrying mate, just get in there and sort it😉

You never get two o-rings to seal against each other. It'll be an oring that's circular, you just need to find the dimension by pulling the bugger off👍

There are two neutrals, 1 in the main gearbox and 1 in the transfer box. The main gearbox (R380 or LT177) drives an output shaft which typically spins faster than the engine in 5th, the same speed when in 4th and slower when in 1st 2nd and 3rd...

Cut one of the clips off and put a cable tie round it..... 😂

That would be awesome if you mean Langley near to Stevenage? And not the CIA headquarters in America. The iCarSoft does not work on the P38. Your CR-Max, if it is the V3 with the latest software, will be identical to the LR V3. I bought the LR...

No lad, just get in there, sort the, bugger out and tell me what bloody happened 😂

Got the buggers out. They don't look in bad condition, got me wondering if it's a leak with the pipes or the matrix itself. Anyways, what size o rings have people been using as a replacement? I've got some that are the same diameter but a...

If they have crusty crap on them it's because they've been leaking 👍

If I am driving at 70 mph in fifth gear and then I forced my gearbox to go into third gear, I will theoretically use the same fuel but I am putting more stress on the components by running them at a faster speed. I wish to God I never mentioned...

I am a Pepsi Max man...

BTW, just for a laugh, I googled the amount of energy required. Surely burning that amy energy in petrol is gonna put the same strain or wear on the engine regardless of rpm. . . . . .but I'm not the right scientist :cool:

Engines need revs to blow the coke out of the system.

Remember the future is not written yet . . . . it's what you make it !!

It would mate, you could crack the smaller clip and allow it to breath into shape and then reclip it. 👍

It's not had the clips tightened at the right moment or position and is under vacuum. 👍

Understood, most on here are happy to maintain what they have. Although there are a few that dabble in mods to suit there needs. You may be the first to change out diffs in an l322. Most of the time it's the series vehicles that change them. 😊

Before I bought my OBD reader I looked into this but I do not have a Windows laptop. I saw some cables with laptop on eBay but they were all for the later model cars, not for my 2002 L322. I bought the V2 iCarSoft because the company said that...

You may be the first to find out kiddo. 🫵😎

I think this image is it, for the BMW equivalent M62, showing a straight line due to vanos? I normally do not get over 1,500 RPM in my daily driving, so I am barely using the power of the car, but I feel no need to do that. Given that the...

Some clubs will be more responsible than others then. GLASS is the best bet for green laning or pay and play sites for off roading.

You say that but we have had a few people come out with us before saying that the local club didn't follow the rules.

Greenlane association or local off road clubs for green lanes.. If you want off road fun, go for a pay and play site here you can get stuck and winch away to your hearts’ content.

"Ideally looking for legal routes" What other sort of routes would you be looking for, illegal ones?

Had a Puma since new in 2013 and also have a Series 1 88". Always interested in sources of useful information to keep them running.

👍 I'm not sure where the emojis are if your on the pc. 🤷

Usually later in the revs range. Most petrol on turbos are at there best around 3k through to 5k revs. Motor depending also and if there are camshaft timing devices that shift torque points😵🫣 How bloody complicated does it need to be😂
