    HEVAC flapper motor

    Oh is that where the little bugger lives. Is it the same motor as the two on the rh side, saw them whilst i was praying to the god of orings... To confirm, it wont need resetting etc with a diagnostic?? Is it easy enough to check the function of the flap incase its seized and hence taken...

    HEVAC flapper motor

    Can anyone confirm for me what the process would be once the flapper motor is replaced. From research i understand that its the flapper motor i need, as there is no temp control on the passenger side. Can you simply fit and plug in the new motor and everything will work or does it need a long...

    Gearbox upgrade

    Indeed, a scary thought, but the p38 meets all our needs for size and capability. An its hard to justify getting anything else instead.

    Gearbox upgrade

    Probably correct, but it has dropped my inlet temperatures rather nicely over the old one.

    Gearbox upgrade

    Having done plenty of research, including a couple of great threads on this site, im seriously looking into upgrading the gearbox and possible replacing the transfer at the same time.

    Cooling

    Is there any dimension differences in the rads?? Is the flow direction the same?? What would the change in water head being moved do to the water pump?? Is the core thickness of the V8 rad going to cause over cooling? Only issues i can think of..

    radiator advice

    Having had cooling issues on 2000 dhse, have removed radiator as it didnt seem to be heating evenly. With rad removed I flipped it upside a placed a bearing in it, which promptly rolled accross the top of the rad and out of the other hole. So assuming that the rad is either buggered or...

    Aircon fan query

    Losing the will with the car, managed to get it back from plymouth with the coolant temp gauge sitting central, had to slacken the expansion bottle cap off (no idea how tight it should be screwed on) to stop the system from over pressuring.. Symptoms seem to be, coolant levels are increasing...

    Thermostats

    Have a 2000 DHSE auto. Having looked through rave this evening with the thermostat next to me, i saw that there should be a bypass valve of some sort. Neither of the thermostats i have, have got this.. How much of an issue would that be or is there now a built in bypass that isnt so obvious.
