    Swivel housing inner gasket

    Yes. If the bolts are good then reuse them, I replaced them as they don't cost much. It's pretty heavy by the way.

    Black smoke on putting my foot down

    "Then, the engine is turned on. Once exhaust starts being emitted, the machine tests for: Hydrocarbons (HC) Nitrogen oxide (NOx) Particulate matter (PM) in diesel vehicle exhaust Carbon monoxide (CO) Air to fuel ratio (for engine efficiency)" Seems like it might be.

    Td5 starts but will not run without holding key

    It's worth trying a new one for the cost. Post a picture of your Landy, I would also like to see your Corvette. Followed a new one today, thought it was a Lambo until I saw Corvette written across the back of it 😀

    Black smoke on putting my foot down

    So what if you had two vulnerable oldies in your family? When I took food to my parents I wore a mask to help stop then getting something from me, it made me feel better. Certainly didn't spend my whole day wearing one. While this is indeed a Land Rover forum you are also allowed to talk about...

    Td5 110 SW brake lights

    It would seem you have an earth if your lights work are you sure you have a brake live then?

    Td5 starts but will not run without holding key

    If it's really a Ninety or One Ten then it will be a bit harder for people to help as they don't know what has been done in the conversion. If its a TD5 pretending to be a Ninety or One Ten it might be easier to diagnose. Might be worth changing the ignition switch and key barrel 🤔 Welcome to...

    Td5 110 SW brake lights

    You have a brake live at the rear lights? Put a temporary earth from the bulb holder to earth and see if it works. Is there an earth point behind the rear lamp inner covers? High level brake light earths through the heated rear screen earth I do believe, it's very common for them to fail and can...

    Black smoke on putting my foot down

    . Exhaust emission control equipment You only need to check components that are visible and identifiable, such as catalytic converters, oxygen sensors, and exhaust gas recirculation valves. You should reject all vehicles first used on or after 1 September 2002, where original emissions control...

    Black smoke on putting my foot down

    Good for you. To be honest I didn't mind wearing a mask, didn't have a cold or anything. Had a quick look and you might be ok with removing on a TDI as far as the mot is concerned being pre 2002.

    Black smoke on putting my foot down

    Actually I do believe they are meant to check them and fail if missing or tampered with, same with the cat and dpf if fitted. I imagine you will only get in trouble if stopped by vosa or in a fatal accident and the vehicle is inspected. MOT and being illegal are two different things. MOT checks...

    Seat back keeps falling forwards

    Can you not just twist the frame back the other way if that is the problem 🤔

    Radiator change, what else please?

    I wouldn't change anything just for the sake of it. A 20 year old Genuine hose is probably better than a new Britpart one, same with the water pump. Mind you water pump isn't original, what make did they fit last time?

    Half shaft seals failing repeatedly Discovery 2

    Or they could say "cheap for a reason". It's all a bit annoying when trying to buy the better option. For example I bought an OEM drop arm the other week, before buying I emailed the places selling them. Only one place hinted it was Adwest but wasn't allowed to out right say that it was. The...

    What have you done on your 90/110/130 today?

    Took the 200tdi out for a test run, I hope it's OK this time as my son is losing the faith.

    Black smoke on putting my foot down

    It's illegal to remove or tamper with any emission control items, egr and cat included and has been for a while. You are a very naughty boy 😏 Edit: I do wonder if that also includes fiddling with the fuel system.

    Black smoke on putting my foot down

    Your not worried about that being a fail (and illegal) then? If it passes with no egr you should be ok with your adjustments I should think.
