    I'm over my embarrassment

    I have had a few similar experiences this week (just without the wall) in the V8 Disco with ABS lucky for me each time I let the brakes off and regained it. I tend to take foot off naturally than hit the brake so not sure whats going on in my mind! :confused::eek: Glad to be back in mine...

    300tdi interior

    Removal of Plastic Rad/Thermo Bung/Screw!

    Got the ones with the bleed valve in and the bugger still leaked! Think it was due to the thread damage. But at the same time I got a Brass Blanking bolt one too which fixed that problem! I quite liked the look of this one too but I thought it may pertude too much (Think they have screwed it in...

    300tdi Overheating - again!!!!

    Umm.....:confused::confused::confused: Not sure if I do mine wrong! But I take the 2 plugs out (Radiator and Thermo housing) and fill the expansion tank up with water/antifreez. Then when it fills and starts to leak out of the Radiatior (Lowest) hole I put the Plug into it and tighten it up...

    Removal of Plastic Rad/Thermo Bung/Screw!

    Anyone have a link to one with a bleed valve in them? Was just going to get the ones off ebay. And the waste bit is long gone now so will have to wait for it to surface up somewhere of cause trouble else where! Wouldn't have been so bad if I hadn't told him it would end up happening!!!

    Is the question Can I or Will I? See the answer to this is... Yes you can and if you don't then the original post is a waste of time since there is only 2 ways to find the car! 1) Let us know what the Number Plate is and we could find its registered keeper or 2) Go to the address of the...

    Removal of Plastic Rad/Thermo Bung/Screw!

    Got it out with a hot knife on my gas soldering iron, just wish I had been persistant when I said to my Bro to get some paper towels to block the crap going into the engine! If its too far to walk to get them think of the walking he will have to do when the bit of bung that droped into the...

    Removal of Plastic Rad/Thermo Bung/Screw!

    Opening bonnet from outside

    Get a cheap lighter and heat the end of the key up! Not so quick or hot that you melt the plastic bits tho! Go slow and give it some time and it will fit in fine. The fun then starts as you try to turn the key! Heat it some more and try WD40 in the hole. Dont force it tho.

    Freeing up the high/low/difflock

    XXX STOLEN 90 DEFENDER 30TH DECEMBER SHEFFIELD xx

    Another idea..... Get someone to call the guy you bought if from and ask if it is still for sale tell him that you were going to bid but couldnt get the cash together and that you now have it sat there. If he has it or knows the person that does he may try reselling it to you!

    Have you googled the number to see if it is a business? Also try calling betend to be a sales rep and probe them. If your good you may even be able to get an address. I know a radio station in Munich called random listeners who then won a crate of beer. There was a phone stolen in the city...

    Battery questions

    Lol few ways to look at it. Halfords are open on Sundays! There are loads of them so if it fails in Scotland, Ireland, London or Leeds then it can be taken back for a replacement (If you keep copy or receipt in the car) They carry such items in stock and you can get it and have it on the car...
