    Roverron tuning box

    Yes. I installed one about 6 months ago, along with a new MAF. Immediately I noticed a difference, but that could have been due to the new MAF more than anything. Anyhow, performance is much much better. I have mine set on 9 (couldn't quite force myself to go for 10!) Most of the time I run...

    Its MOT day...

    Bought new 'orange' indicator bulbs yesterday. Rears done. Do you think I could work out how to change the fronts? Take the headlights out? Take the wings off? I wasn't until looking on youtube that I realised there is an access panel in the wheel arch! How funky is that !?!?

    DIY VCU service

    Hi, Just to add some info. The recon VCUs from Bell are cut at the top, cleaned out, refilled, re-welded together and re-sprayed. Nice neat job.

    Tyres?

    I just had some MAXXIS 771 BRAVO A/T fitted to mine, recommended by my local friendly tyre shop (independent). Big knobbly things, no special lift kits required. I bought a set of rims off flea-bay so that I can swap them on and off for winter/summer use. So far, good handling, no real...

    Td4 chip -worth doing?

    Yes, its well worth doing. I put one in my TD4 that had around 95,000 on the clock and the transformation is amazing. However, I did do the full MAF/RonBox install so I expect changing the MAF had a lot to do with it anyway. I've not done any scientific measurements with it, but I have more BHP...

    Freelander 3 door parcel shelf/ boot load cover

    Yeah.. I bought one of these. Does what it says on the tin. Well manufactured. Price is a touch steep but I suppose it depends on how 'bad' you want one :)

    Funny smell...

    Is it a hot acrid smell? Could be that you have a leaky injector seal. Take a look at the top of the injectors, to see if there are any black/sooty deposits around the injectors. Good luck

    synergy in ecu box and wiring

    I thought about doing the same, but as you say, water ingress into that box wouldn't be too helpful. Its a sealed box for a reason. Anyway, here's how I did it. The box is inside a black foam lined abs plastic box, simply velcroed to the battery

    Glow plugs

    I had a BMW E46 320d with a problem like this, SOB wouldn't start. Changed the glow plugs.. still no difference. Was there actually any power to the glow plugs? Errr No! Replaced the 100A fuse and booom started on the first crank.
