Well i know things were looking too easy... i've removed two of the nuts 14mm connecting the prop shaft to the drum but then i try the last two and they just spin freely with no resistance, if i try to tighten them they spin freely again.. i'm going to assume this probably indicates to a...

Yea just reading they pretty much do it all first so just gonna go with it as i have PNCB anyway so shouldn't effect it. I'll keep you lot updated on what the outcome is. now my last problem just a update i've tightened the handbrake with a quarter turn and yes my handbrake is on within 3...

Just checking the document now as A Flux are now closed, but reading the fine print i have to pay £90 then a further £50 as i have PNCB but still with new seals and all for £10 quid extra... but yea it makes scene to go down that insurance route. plus the idea of watching them struggle while...

Cheers Dyte, just called autoglass and explained it and the guy was really nice and he explained they will replace the seal too... so looks like i've solved that problem lol ;-) just gonna double check with adrian flux then i'll just go straight to Autoglass and then let them sort it. i've been...

Dam you copy and paste. forgot to change , thanks now sorted :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: and my Insurance excess is £90 and if i can get it for a few quid more i'd rather do it via 3rd party or myself saves the robbing gits finding an excuse to charge me more...

well thats what i'm thinking now. i've just found the part no MWC8304 and the cheapest is £70 but slightly curious due to the costs i've just called the guy that quoted me back and he says that's £130 without seals if he needs a seal it will be £210 and from what i know mine are from original...

Yes its that time of year its MOT time and, well i expected a huge failure but it wasn't as bad as first thought. Heres the list and if i've allready solved it i'll say 001 Near side (Sill) Seatbelt Anchorage prescribed area excessively corroded. Orded a new outer sill from YRM 002 Windscreen...

Couldn't say if it is mot required.. I do have some paperwork somewhere that shows which pins to wire up to get the seat moving back n forward... I'll have a look for it later.. I got some and just never got round to doing it something more important allways went instead and then had to sort...

Thanks guys, she's all fixed and back on the road today. Yet to let the owner (auntie) take her out. There is oil and smoke still but it's not dropping when checking from the dipstick, so it has to be the left over in the exhaust. Thanks guys once again!

Right here's what the situation the oil pipe from the turbo to the intercooler (elbow pipe) feeling inside the hole I can't feel anything but the inside of the pipe had a large bulge nearly blocking the pipe itself (guess that's due to age) but if I remove the air in on the turbo and wiggle the...

Cheers guys appreciated , well I'm nipping back round this afternoon after work, and I've told them not to drive it. I'll give the turbo the once over. I've seen some second hand turbos for cheaper or is it better to just recon the existing unit

Just come to a friends to look at there 300tdi that's loosing oil. Now while looking for leaks around the engine, some one told me to come round the back and long and behold a pool of oil from the exhaust. This only took a few minutes with the 2 high revs. Now I was thinking head gasket, but...

Well as you said I've just gone back out and re-checked the cross member and it looks as though a bolt is missing Missed it first examination it would explain the stopping when pressing, I'll try and get a few bolts and see what size it is and replace it and I'll feedback tomorrow if it's...

Hi all Well rather than describe what happening I've uploaded to youtube VIDEO0052.mp4 - YouTube Hopefully you can hear the knocking noise. it seems to stop when i apply pressure on the gear box or the exhaust, pushing the clutch in makes no difference to it at all. but just before this...

Apologies you could be right. Reconnected and it sorted, is soon failed again but if I messed with the connection it would stay on, just seams to be very irrattic. So gonna buy a stalk today and see if that fixes it. EDIT. If I press here on the melted connection they start working...

Right waited till there was light this morning, I've tested the stalk using a multi meter and it's fine, I have continuity with the switch on and none with it off so that tells me the switch is fine, but on removing the connection at the back of the switch I can see one is badly melted. I...

Thanks mad hat man. I've turned off the talkapp signature ;-) and how could you test the stalk? Is it a case of replacing or could you short out some pins on the connection?

Hi there Just struck with a problem, from a while its been getting worse, I'd switch my headlights on and nothing would happen for 3 seconds then they'd come on, just about to leave my parents and now they don't come on, dim is fine so there is a little light but not enough for night...
