You’re going to struggle to get much more height out of it without causing issues. Lift kits are great, but will likely cause you longer term wear issues with driveshafts, due to the new angles created. I believe you can go up a tyre size to 245 65 with no problems, but you’d need to confirm.

There is a chance the pump has been damaged. Others here may be able to reasonably confirm from the noise and the info above. @Nodge68 ?

When you did the work on the steering pump etc., did you follow the correct method for bleeding the system after, without starting the engine? And using the correct fluid?

Very nice … and welcome!

Defo a Renault… 25 perhaps?

When you say “it’s a disaster waiting to happen”, do you mean your FL going bang, or doing more damage? Because that’s what will happen if you keep ignoring it. You’ll find most modern cars go into a limp-mode when a problem is detected, not just a FL2. Maybe get the fault diagnosed and...

THAT rare?!? Blimey.

The lead is much longer on my FL2

Recalibrate it first… With the tailgate closed, disconnect the battery, then reconnect it. The tail window will drop down. Then switch on ignition and raise the window all the way to the top using the button in the car. Release the button - window should now be calibrated.

Plantation shutters go on the inside

Got plantation shutters across the front of the house… 👍

I’m guessing one of those leads sticking out the side of the unit plugs into the 3.5mm ‘line in’, by the handbrake. I have a small usb player plugged into mine, so can play memory sticks full of my tunes through the car sound system. My phone just connects to the hands-free in the car for calls.

+1 for a failing cam sensor causing starting issues, especially when the engine is warm

Have you checked ALL the fuses, as advised?

Well, I’ve tidied the garage (a bit!), did a bit of a welding job to strengthen my hide poles, took the dog for a run, and ignored @MGT ‘s thread all afternoon whilst doing so. #beenbusy

Just checking in, with another coffee. Plenty of ignoring going on today. Off to tidy my garage in a minute, so will ignore from there too. @MGT

Hi and welcome. Pictures! We need pictures!

Good point - I’d completely forgotten about that rule. If @MGT doesn’t come forward with a valid explanation soon, I may well sue for $10 billion a medium-sized Fruit & Nut
