    Tyres + how much are mine worth

    Yer I thought the Kuhmos were well priced and not that much more than remoulds. I was also looking at the GT Radials which are supposed to be good. Cooper STTs are another consideration.

    Sensible tyre question

    Easier yes, better no. If you have an accident between now and your renewal your insurance will be classed null and void :(

    I am actually from Stifford Clays :) Well my chinese in/out temp guage and clock lasted 2 weeks :mil66: Backlight no longer works and it thinks its a constant 42 degrees in the cab :D Think i am going to get a 5v PSU one and stick a resisitor inline to drop the voltage.

    Tyres + how much are mine worth

    I just sold 3 265/75 Insas for £100 and a set of 4 on rims for £250 and I let them go cheap IMO 4 235s on rims are probably worth around £150-200 if they have plenty of tread left. Stick them on ebay and someone will rip your hand off, far too many tyre snobs on here :D :p

    oil cooler leak

    Sack off the cooler and join the pipes together :D I am binning my oil cooler and pipes and using the bosses on the filter housing for gauge senders. Plan for next summer is to bin the standard IC and rad and fit custom alloy ones :)

    Sensible tyre question

    I wouldnt worry about 5 or 6. Your speedo will be more accurate so if it says 30 then you are more than likely doing 30 as you have done away with the general 10% error you get with them. Its a good idea to check it at the main speeds with GPS (so sat nav or phone app) to check (30/50/70 for...

    Poorly Disco 300tdi

    Black smoke would indicate overfuelling which is probably due to a boost leak. I would pressure test the system and see if it holds 15psi. You will need to make up a kit, basically take the hoses off the compressor of the turbo and the intake manifold. Block one end and then you need something...
