This VCU question has been going through my head for a few weeks now wondering what to do. My FL has just reached 65000 on the clock and reading a lot of posts about changing it has got me a bit concerned. I've owned the car from new everything seems to be fine with the VCU so do I leave well...

Off to bed talk tomorrow...... All the best

78K is nothing for these engines it's still running in lol it will be fine just pay attention to all the oils ie IRD, Gearbox, Engine, and Diff.

If the cradle looks in one piece then it could just be the bracket inside that's broke or perhaps come loose it's only held in place by two riverts but you won't know until it's apart. That's it a sedimenter couldn't remember the name lol No the Webasto is an optional extra now but at...

You lucky bu@@er I want one of those heaters they are great in the winter for warming the car before you get into it. People have done modifications to theirs like using a remote fob to start it up 20 minutes before getting in the car so it's nice and warm also clears the frost from the...

Sounds like you have a Webassco diesel heater behind the light. Have a look under the front bumper just in front of the near side front wheel to see if there is a little pipe sticking out, this will be the heater exhaust. The fuel pump should not be loose in there. Were you driving at the time...

Yes that's the parts, the vacuum hose fit's back over the small pipe. If I remember correctly it comes with a large "O" ring you'll see where it goes when you get it but it goes in between the blank and the head.

No some people make them with the hole right through, this is not needed as the intention is to block it off. It's the very small piece of tube that is sticking out on the opposite side of picture, the piece with what looks like a big washer on the end is the bit that connects the exhaust gas...

This is the one I have got on mine. LAND ROVER FREELANDER TD4 EGR REMOVAL BLANKING KIT | eBay

I've got the black one on mine paid around £25 for it some have gone for the silver alloy one which I think is more expensive. Just make sure the little bit of pipe for the vacuum hose is blanked off and does not have a hole going into the EGR blank.

Haha they might but you won't lol it sounds like a duck laughing every time you take your foot off the accelerator pedal LOL You'll be thinking where's that bl@@dy duck :violent:

Yes that's right 16% and below is a normal reading 17% to 25% needs attention anything over that is a major problem. No engine management light but you might get the duck noise LOL. Which is easily sorted.

Just one last thought. Have you got a damp meter to check for any damp in the caravan ??? See if you can download the following jpeg and take it with you to test.

That's what forums are all about, helping each other out if possible.

Yes no problem, every caravan has a steel wheel as a spare and in case your wondering you can use the same studs or nuts as used with the alloy wheel.

No problem glad to help. I wouldn't think it would affect the remap by doing the EGR blank if anything I would think it would make it even better, you would certainly notice a difference when done thou. A bit of a messy job cleaning the air intake manifold out but using plenty of Mr Mussel...

Hi Mike, Have you done the EGR blank yet!! if not your in for a supprise lol let us know and we'll talk you through it. Also do you know about putting 250ml of cheap mineral 2 stroke oil in with a full tank of diesel, works wonders as well. Great to see you on the C4U forum last night. All...

Yep agreed there I've changed my two 7 pin plugs for the 13 pin euro plug a lot better connection as well. I had to do it really as my new caravan has the 13 pin connection.
