Another vote for the Geolander GO15 - they're excellent in all road conditions - and fab in snow and fab in mud - what is not to like? :)

Wish mine had the heated seat loom - but there is no sign of this on my car (a lowly "S" spec 2001 model) :(

Hi guys, I wonder whether you clever folks can help. A simple question and then the scenario: Q: can you replace the rear fusebox/ BCU (part number LR078822) with a second hand unit - and what needs to be done to get the car to recognise it? The scenario: Three months ago, after, ironically...

I can't upload snowy pictures - sad face!

Thanks guys - if I fit multiple throttle bodies to my Sprint/Hill climb MGF, I may need to think about an alterantive vacuum source for the servo (if that stays) :)

Nor can I Nodge - I was thinking it was just me!

Just a quick question regarding the circuit that you are using to drive the vacuum pump - is that an off-the-shelf item? Where is it from? Dear old bay of fleas? :)

Missed this - but I know the Westbury auction site well. It has a nice cafe. I used to always wander around there daydreaming at the lovely cars I could buy IF I had the money! LOL

Our Disco Sport has a heated steering wheel - it's just lovely! I miss it on any other car I drive - including the old Freelander! Three things I would add to the FL1 if I could: heated seats, heated windscreen and a heated steering wheel. At least the first two items are achievable. Shame my...

+1 on that - super helpful in tracking down intermittent ABS sensor faults :)

And if there are no faults stored, the ABS light will blink out before re-illuminating until road speed reaches 4mph... if it comes on with ignition and does not extinguished, then there is a retained historical fault :)

Thanks - will do! :)

Thanks - yes, been there already too...

Thanks - just want I needed to know - will dig out the connector :) 2001, so reluctor ring based sensor technology. May have blown out with rust (I have had to replace the NSF for this reason). Could also be broken cable... might just have to bite the bullet and go through the painful process...

Those three amigos are friendly chaps aren’t they? Mine have popped back to say hello. Diagnostics tells me it’s the right rear sensor causing grief this time. The fault appears intermittent - intermittent in that the lights can go away… bad connector perhaps? I will need to dive in to find...

Oooo! Super interesting - I had no idea about the ring-spanner version! Time to start a christmas list.. :D

Update: success! The Irwin-style bolt extractor tool did the job. I initially gave it some love with the extractor on my impact driver and then simply applied some elbow grease with a ratchet on the extractor socket and it came away nicely. The unthreaded shoulder of the screw had corroded...

Thanks guys! I already have and have tried the impact driver @Jayridium - these are great and wish others would use them rather than rounding off disc brake location screws... Regarding the Irwin style extractors, I have a set of similar off Amazon to try. It may snap the screw/bolt - but so...

Thanks - yes, I ordered an equivalent kit of bolt extractors from Amazon earlier this morning. I directed all the heat (with a weld) to the bolt itself, rather than the hub. I could try heating the hub, but would rather avoid this if possible (rubber bushes/ rubber gaiters/ grease in wheel...

Forgot to mention this - but tried that (hammer and chisel approach) too! I wasn't having a great day yesterday... heat and frustration! lol
