Not particularly I don't think, although I don't know how I can tell. With accelerator, most response comes from first 1/4 of travel. Pushing I down further usually gives it less oomph.

2.5 na tithonus. After driving up hill (ie laboured) when road flattens out and I back off throttle, the power surges for a moment, as if I suddenly had more power. It sometimes behaves a bit like running out of fuel even though it isn't. Could it be the fuel filter? Any ideas? Thanks!

Thanks! Job done 20w 50. Was a doddle.

Thanks! What differences between the 15w 40 & 20w 50? I have a puff of smoke at startup; otherwise runs well.

What engine oil/viscosity is suitable for a 2.5 nad? I'm changing oil & filter, how much will it take? Apologies if its on here already but I couldn't find.

Does anyone know on which engine the remap will give best results? Any idea of power/torque figures?

I want to get a Double Cab Defender. Question is, which one to go for. I would want to get more torque/power (more for low down grunt than top end speed) - Which engine (2.2 2.4 or Td5) would be the best to go for to get the best results (torque more preferable)? I looked at a plug in Tuning...

Now all the byways around my area (West of Peterborough) are closed for the winter I wondered whether the Thetford Forest byways would be open through the winter (all year round)?

I still have not received a response! I have today sent the third reminder. Seems to me that the best saving of money would be to get rid of the rights of way department!

I was driving a few lanes East of Peterborough the other day with the dogs and met a rather unpleasant character who was blocking the way with his van. "What you doing here?" "Just passing by" "You're not supposed to be here" " Its a legal right of way - theres a sign saying byway and it's on...

Good pics Spyderman. No way as bad as I imagined! A few 4x4s down it would flatten out those ruts nicely. I still haven't had a reply from the council.:doh:

Not I. I very much doubt they are too bothered about anyone who might try and get in for free because so few people would actually bother to go 4 miles off road to do so! I wonder whether approaching them would make it worse?!?

I don't know the answer to this, but it would be a good way forward. has anyone else met the local farmers (I havent been in this area for 4 years - until now).

This is a copy of the email i have sent to the council. I will post the reply when I recieve it. Dear Mr Fett Re: Temporary Closure of Forty Foot Lane – A6 to Santa Pod With reference to the above closure, I would like to make comments. I understand that the closure is to ‘prevent serious...
