Clutch bleeding issues. Hi all, just replaced clutch on our td5 at work. Can't get a full pedal we've back bled, bled the usual way foot on foot off. Truer the land rover way in to a clear container. Pedal seems to travel very slightly before getting any pressure. Any tips or hints would...

Gussied that's a unanimous no then

try landrover dealer in exeter, they were doing silly deals not so long back £700 a set. 22's on my vogue. got to be too carefull havent you

Heater control module was common for causing battery drains, cheap to fix and need girls hands to get up in the footwell to change. Lots of threads on here reference this

21v is far too much, double check this .I would charge the battery then check the charge rate. You could be cooking the battery if it is charging so high. BMW had lots of problems with the final stage resistor which has been also mentioned. It's fairly simple to get to, try removing it...
