Say hello to £3500 to this date... :S

Changed the thermostat today, and the inlet manifold gasket. Hope this sorts my leak issues.. The old gasket leaked very badly and the old thermostat did not open properly, resulting in me driving with the heat on full blast to prevent it from overheating. Very handy with 4 broken windows...

I was also rear ended a while back. The Toyota had to change the bumper, light and a few other bits and pieces. I just changed a rear light and light guard. It was at very low speed, perhaps a couple of KM/H. Lately it seems to be a lot more water in the boot than it used to. Don't know if it...

Finally fitted the front fogs today. :)

I had some similar issues, turned out that the regulator I fitted was broken, previous owner had bought it, looked very new. Does the tailgate open when you use the handle? Here is a kit that includes the handle and microswitch also.

Hello. I took some pictures when I replaced my front speakers a while back. Here is the thread.

I did this a few months ago, like you, a massive oil leak, and the car was due for it's MOT the next day. Covered up everything with plastic, and still ended up with a swimming pool in one of the holes for the plugs.. Needless to say that triggered the engine warning light. I thought I was...

Hello all. Had a "funny" problem yesterday, started it up, and every time I would get off the acc. pedal, the car just died.. No engine warning lights, or any other lights for that matter. The car drove fine, as long as I kept giving it some gas. No lack in power, no misfire etc. I should...

Don't know what has happened, but the leak seem to have stopped(?) Perhaps some dirt from the system has sealed it from the inside? Had the car on a ramp an hour ago, it was indeed a part of the Defa warm up system. On a side note, the coolant had a lot of "gunk" and dirt in it. Don't think...

Hello all. The car has been leaking coolant for a while now, not the HG, suprise suprise, but somewhere else. Yesterday the leak went from "a bit annoying, and having to top up every week", to major leak. I can see that it's coming from the area with arrows on the pictures below. The car has a...

I might be mistaking, but I think the TD4 has the longer front bumper? Like the V6 front? I would have checked the angels of the A bar before I bought one unseen. :)

Quick update, ended up buying a cheap uni whip, works well. The LR one did fit my MG, which had a bee sting aswell, but now it looks like I'm seraching for ET. A shorter one is one the list. :)

Thank you very much! Very nice of you. :) It confirmed my suspicions, someone have done something to my aerial.. It keeps fighting me this car, why can't anything ever be easy? ;)

Hello guys. I am wondering if a nice soul out there, could perhaps unsrew his or her aerial and take a photo for me? My car had an awfull bee sting type aerial, which was rusted to bits. Got rid of that one, and bought one of these on Ebay. However, it does not fit at all. So I'm...

That's correct Sir. And that sounds like the best solution to me, thanks for the tip. I guess it's out with a multimeter and figure out which one it is. :)

Cheers Teddywood. :) My thoughts aswell, but I'm not the best at explaining everything in English. :) Any suggestions to where I should take the feed from? I suppose it's always nice to fuse it aswell?

Hello mate. :) Thanks for the answer, I'm sorry if I did not make it clear enough. It's a complete brand new kit, including fitting instructions, relays and all the other bits and pieces, part no.: STC53048, so everything is there. But the switch is not live until pin 86 on the relay has...

Hello again. I have fitted the wire harness etc. from the US kit I bought from Ebay. Just to see if it all works before I start cutting into the front bumper. See this thread, if you are interested.. :) The V6 lights, nuts/bolts, brackets etc. are still for sale, see this thread, as I have...

Cheers mate!:) As I could see no broken wire at the gear lever, it must be somewhere else. Let the hunt begin.. :) Changed your mind about the front fogs Nodge? ;)

Thanks for the reply Matt, yes. All the lights is lit, and they all go away after a second or so, (except the ABS who needs the car to be rolling..). :) It's not a big deal, as long as the three amigos is not showing up, that's the important thing. :) Just wondered if anyone had an idea to what...
