Thank you Alteredtech, that's a good plan B with the screwdriver.

Ok, thank you Nodge68. I think it should be ok still. Will try.

That tool isn't universal. Just saw the instructions and there are only some car manufacturers listed, but not LR. The metal plate as on the picture is too small and slides into the piston(?) hole. Will try with the wood on top. I think that might work as the diameter should hopefully be big...

Hello All, I've bought a tool a while back when in need to change the discs and pads, said to be universal. As a matter of fact it isn't. Tried it last week and it's too small. I was wondering if I put some wholesaw cut pieces of osb boards on top would it be ok to for rewinding it or is the...

If it's not starting, that could be the lp pump as well. I understand you haven't changed that one. Otherwise lack of power I went back from cyclone to the fluffy crank case breather filter and after about 6T miles it went down on power side and increase of fuel heavily. I changed it last week...

Moin Flusspferd, That is an interesting observation. I wrote some weeks ago that I couldn't understand why when the MAF is unplugged it needs less fuel or at least not more as it is usually being said. I went on a trip to Germany with the MAF unplugged and it literally gave me same or very...

I have Conti TS850 Wintercontact 215/65/16 on at the moment, but have two sets of rims, one for summer as well. Before I had BS Blizzaks for winter were good as well. Here is quite a range for winter tyres, if you want those for your size: Tyres search Buy cheap for your passenger car |...

Got them out with some pipe wrench. All good.

That with the gently pull them out doesn't work on my one. Probably twenty years nothing done. Tried to get the white insert out ad/or do the fiddly bit from above, but nothing so far worked. Pliers would not be a good idea, I guess, not sure if I could use a bit of electronic spray.

Thank you Nodge68. Usually I use cruise control and when everything works fine I just tip the pedal which makes it easy, but also with the current fuel prices I try not to use the heavy foot too much.

Nice one, cleaned mine in summer, but didn't get that clean. Thought to throw in an ultrasonic cleaner to get it cleaner. Especiallt the other entry.

Thanks GG. I've created an Excel spreadsheet. Yes, usually I don't wait till it's empty to fil up. Most was like half full on that trip, mostly only quarter depending on where I am. Also when I don't fill up for whatever reason I can calculate it once filled up.

We returned some days ago from a trip to Germany, South Hesse, meaning uphill, downhill, going north to Lower Saxony and also Hamburg for a day. Got the wiring loom changed before and it seemed to have improved. Couldn't get the MAF changed due to the weather before. From Dover down the A3 south...

Thank you for the pictures @andyfreelandy. I have some parts laying around, especially that foam blocks, when I did it in 2018 and need to get it back in.

Morning @Nodge68, all I can say is that the gearing got so bad when the noises from the driveshaft appeared that I preferred to get it picked up to get it changed and it improved afterwards again. My thoughts on that were, that if the driveshaft doesn't get the proper rpm's to the road in...

Morning @andyfreelandy , New GKN RH DS is in for about 1.5 weeks now. The odd noise is gone. Due to winter tires it's a bit louder though. Gearing has improved again, isn't as rough as when other one went, but as the other one is not GKN I am wondering if that has an effect on the gearing still...

Morning @Nodge68 you mentioned somewhere the mile/km conversion and was wondering which one you used as it wasn't 1.6093 as per what I found. What was it again?. Thought it was in here but couldn't find it anymore.

Can't tell you about the pipe, but for Rave, presumingly when using newer Windows you might need to adjust to compatibility mode.
