Oh yea, I believe could be many things. Thankfully it was just a leak that was running rhe level down. It was very low. The leak was just an o ring in thermostat housing. So fixed that and I think the leak is fixed now. I just need to dry the ground underneath and leave for a while. I don't...

And finally.. There was a coolant leak, which I managed to pressure test and find a perished o-ring in the thermostat housing. An o-ring fixed that leak, which was nice. The final thing preventing me from driving this now, is that the LCM seems knackered. Off all the symptoms, the two things...

Following on from the above.. I set out to inspect the rust situation.......... This is the air compression tank... boo! Here's where things get really juicy!! (In the cars defence, a huuuuge amount of L322s are like this!) The running boards are coming off.. this side isn't too...

Hi everybody, It's been a while... and I apologise for my silence and lack of updates. Here is a bit of a bumper update. I finally got to start work on my Landy over the holiday period and "got it driving".. This is in quotes, because I fixed the brakes and suspension but not yet taken it out...

I need to test the battery, although I would like to get it driving for a while and see if the engine is ok before fixing up ancillary issues - i'll see how far I get on this batter. Cheers Yea, It certainly didn't look LR installed to even my untrained eye. I'll have a look at tracing, first...

Oh yes.. and the subframe bolts with the weird captive nut things made out tin foil.. that reminds me, need to replace the bolts I had to cut (before I learned about fire LMAO)

Interesting. To be honest, not done a massive amount on the Clio really. Just stripped it to a shell so far and is yet to go back together. I learned most of my stuff on my E350 which is difficult to work on I think. YouTube is there to save me anyway :) I need to stock up on documentation...

Yes.. lol

Quick update.. Yesterday I received the GAP IID from a friend, which is great. I managed to run a scan, results below. When I went to car today, it was dead. So connected up a pack, started fine - and to my surprise the radio was back working - here's hoping all electrical fixes are that easy...

Hi marjon - haha yes.. I used a few but one did the goods :) JWRRC - I have contacts for two guys, who operate between Ireland/England .. but they would often be all over the UK. If you need details, PM me and I will share. Cheers.

Yea it's super annoying. I believe it is a crossover, where the exterior is facelifted as per 2006 MY but the interior is still the older. Talking about wiring.. this particular pic made me think there was something funny going to get the 2010 facelift headlights working. Turns out the...

Not the kind of rust these have. All the centre is rusty too.. A dip in the acid and some silver paint will make it look nice. Actually. I might go for VHT black this time. Had her out getting a breather at the weekend :) I've been doing a little research and discovered that it's all OEM. Body...

That looks good. How does it match? Were you concerned about that? Or did you give all trim a freshen up? I am wondering about spraying 2K clear over it. I might try an eBay special for key shell. I personally don't think i'll be replacing the Venture cam batteries as I don't think i'll use...

Ok, lads & lassies, boys & girls, ladies & gents!! After two months, the motor has arrived!! Plenty of work to do and a few positive surprises.. The good: (surprise) More than half a tank of fuel (surprise) Venture cam exists (surprise) Rear screens work (had to turn on), after being told...

Wow. At least it will sound good if I get it to run....
