Would you believe it. Just got a knock from a nieghbour saying I have a parcel. Courier did not leave a card.

I emailed for the tracking number yesterday but got no reply.

have any of you guys had any trouble receiving stuff from flatdog recently. I ordered a couple of roof bar just over a week ago and still nothing. I phoned on Saturday to ask what was happening so he tracked the package and was told it would delivered today, still nothing. Marty

Mine was leaking via the windscreen seal. I had a good look under the deal and it does hold water and seems to get in at the bottom just were the corners of the window start to curve. It looks like there is join in the frame. I had the dash off and there appears to be something like a gulley...

Yeah what he says and put the blind spot mirror but at the bottom as the whole thing shakes, it is not very ridged. Thinking of putting the original back and sticking a blind spot mirror on instead.

Thanks guys. That's the bit I am looking for. It does not look like a straight forward unbolt and slide out as it has got angle bit on the end. I'll have a better look at the weekend with a torch. Marto

hi all I am trying to find a replacement part like the one in the photo. The part being the metal strip just below the bottom door seal with the rust holes in it. Are they easyish to replace?? , Marto

I only got the landy in March so I am slowly picking apart all the previous owners doings. Next job is to replace those shocks, they are just shockingly bad.

I noticed a few days ago my reverse light was not working on my td5, so checked the bulb,it was fine. Check the fuse, it was fine so it must be the switch. So ordered new switch and today I stripped out the interior just so I could get the tunnel lid off. Anyway finally got access to the gear...

Ha! Logged in on my old user name, again thanks:)

It is the bracket just behind the door striker.cant seem to find it anywhere. Mine has started to split so need a new one so if you know what it is called or have a part no that would be great. Marto

It ok I have found out what it is. It is the glow plug relay. And it is the main power wire that has corroded off.

04 90 td5 found this relay under the drivers seat and a big brown wire that seems to have corroded off it. So what is it for. Strangely land runs ok
