Thanks for the reply. Yep you summarised the problem perfectly. It would appear its over-wound but need to get the old motor out. It looks like it sits above the diff (?) so I assume removal is from the inside as the bolts appear to come from above. Lifted the seats and had a look around as...

Hi Everyone, I have a L322 2007 (3.6 TDV8). The car's got a fudged electronic parking brake/handbrake (long story but it wasn't our doing). The sympoms are it was screaching like bilio when trying to move the car or operate the EPB and it has a warning on the dash. We've found the cable on the...

McLeod has been arrested and not released. He's stolen at least 2 RR's, a merc , an audi at least as well as several iphones and a diamond ring.

First of all thanks for all the support. The car has been found abandoned about 30 miles from us- don’t know any more yet haven’t seen condition etc - waiting for the police to finish their stuff.

So got an OEM sensor and hey presto issue resolved !

Despite best efforts we had to replace the driveshaft and hub. After getting them apart and trying to clean everything up they were too damaged when we attempted to put them back together. It’s all now reassembled but the issues arnt quite gone yet :mad:

Well with lots of persistence our friend managed to release the hub and driveshaft. A picture of what remains of the reluctor ring is attached- holy cow!

Ah good pointers kds thanks, it’s been sat in the press all day soaking in oil as suggested, not sure if it’s been persuaded yet. Failing that off the local garage to use a bigger press. No wonder we couldn’t get it out in situ!
