Hiya i did check all those things but there were no sighn of mayo substance or oul in the header tank the exhuast was just warm. As i say i only started it noticed the smoke then turned it off, it wasent even up to temp so i doubt the head would need skiming. The aa bloke just looked at it...

Yeh he did say the head would need skiming. Is this a major job for me to do myself once i get it home cous i could just get a run around while i fix it i suppose.

The aa said cous iv used 1 recovery getting it to the garage i would have to pay for the second recovery back home. They cover the first 50 miles but then its £2.50 per mile. Works out about 400 quid with the sur charge what a joke. I had the same thought petrol and lighter. Think my only option...

Hiya, I changed my gear box oil Sunday with MTF94. I had the same problem it's a nightmare to get hold of in the end I got it from my local landrover £9.98 per litre I got 3 bottles as it requires 2.1 ltr to fill it up. My gears play up like that as well I think it's the selector fork on mine so...

Hiya guys, does anyone know of company that sells or makes the original black rubber bushes for the upper and lower toe support mounts for a 1.8 petrol k series. I called landrover today and they dont do them they only sell the complete mount which is rediculous. The ones on the car are mint and...

Well i changed my gear oil today nice and easy. I checked eveything under the car and the only thing i could see wobling was the gear selector fork and there is another support rod right by it which conects to the gear box and the bush is loose on that. Any ideas were i can get one of these...

The clicking only happens when I take my foot of the excellerator to change gear, when I get up to speed say about 40 mph and come off the excellerator it's very faint I can hardly hear it. I'll check that mount out tomorrow as iv gotta do the gear oil anyway. It's fine going over bumps, speed...

I have the same car so will be interesting to know what it is. I had an Astra van that did that I use to give the starter motor a tap and it would fire up. Maybe worth a try.
