Been freeing all nuts/bolts associated with fitting my new box that should be here next week. My question is I removed the tie bar from the box then undid the but holding it through the drop arm i think it is called and found hole through which the threaded part of the arm runs is about an inch...

Can anyone recommend a supplier for exchange steering boxes for a d1. Cheers

Ok James thanks for that cheers

I have seen much on here about 3 and 4 bolt pas boxes yet i cannot work out how to actually identfy which i have on my 200 tdi.Is it the top plate with the bleed nipple on as that has 4 bolts on it or is it the way it mounts to the chassi rail.Any help would be appreciated as mine leaks and i...

Already searched this but not really got a definitive answer. My power steering box is leaking from the seal above the drop arm. My question is will this leak be the cause of my power steering being heavy at low revs and will replacing the seal cure it, or is this just telling me the box is...

Your English is way better than my Costa Rican mate .Welcome

Got the same fault on mine.I found its the flasher unit that is located underneath the steering wheel to the left and behind the fuse box there.Check connections.If ok you can remove the unit easily and the actual working bit slides out of the housing so you can check it.

Hello everyone.I have temporarily migrated to this section from the discovery section to ask for advice. I am looking for advice on getting a freelander for my better half due to an increase in the size of our family (numbers that is not weight). I dont know much about the model itself. My...

Thanks for all the advice will try and find somewhere that will have go at balancing them.As stated earlier I find them pretty good I haven't found the wear to be bad so far.

Hi all. I am getting a droning vibration through at about 2k rpm in all gears at any speed so I am ruling out tyres transmission etc. everything seems fine engine pulling ok etc .Anyone any ideas.oh it's a d1 200 tdi .cheers

Yeah very common prob on sender pipes same happened for me. Fitted new sender unit and replaced all fuel lines with clear beer lines so i can see at a glance if any air in the fuel system oh bypassed the sedimenter at the same time

Noticed a diesel leak from around the tank area today on my 200TDi.Its not coming from the sender unit as i replaced this and the send and return pipes a couple of months ago.The filler pipe area is wet but the top of the tank near it also is so i am thinking the smaller breather pipe that...

and outside temps above zero

From your pic i would suggest it is a previous owners addition.The black wires look like the earth.Where do the reds come/ go to.Might be for spotlights that have been removed

Lol know what you mean did my water pump last week in near freezing temps but also had the joy of being unable to get one of the bolts out so ended up cutting the the head off and using plenty of silicone on the gasket in that area. Seems good so far going to attempt to drill and tap a new bolt...
