thanks, will order some NAK seals and have a go at those though

thanks for the explanation, that makes sense

interesting, so the ID of the seal should be a little larger than the od of the shaft? how will it seal then?

Thanks for the suggestion. They are quite a lot cheaper than the genuine ones so happy to give them a try!

hello all! driver side hub seal is leaking and no matter what i do, i cant seem to fix it! The shaft is a heavy duty Ashcroft shaft. It did not come with new sealing shield but i did have an engineer make me a new one to be sure that wasnt causing the leak. I did replace the seal a few times...

I have a spare ecu for my Discovery TD5. is it possible to set it up as "plug and play" somehow? maybe it is possible to disable the immobiliser function of the BCU? i tried turning the passive immobiliser off and connected the spare ecu. copied the injector codes from the original ecu but it...

I tested the output of the rhs and its the expected 5v, i have no idea where the sparks came from. As you know driver side is not easily accessible and i have an accessory fusebox. From what im seeing there are no exposed wires that could have generated the spark but i wasnt really seeing what i...

so its been a few days of 3-amigos free driving. the resolution? i sprayed a bit of contact cleaner into the female plugs of the abs sensors and left it over night to work. Same ecu, same sensor! sometimes the solution is easier that we think o_O Long term i would like to replace the plugs...

thanks a lot, i will keep you posted of the progress! tomorrow i will have some time to investigate a bit further, especially the voltage! what im still curious is that the lights come on randomly, almost always go off after i switch the car off and on , the will reset, also noticed that the...

The sparks that i saw where from more than 5v for sure! Will wait for the new ecu at this point

So it was too good to be true and lights came back on immediately. I tried to unplug the hub connector however noticed that if it touched an earth point, there were a lot of sparks. I dont have my multimeter with me but is there supposed to be a live 12v there (Ignition was off)?

hopefully in my case all it was a slightly unplugged sensor! if it is, nanocom through me off course as it was signalling the wrong hub, but anyway... good thing i did not damage the old hub and sensor :D

thanks for the details! So i went to unplug the right side and noticed the plug was not fully seated, so that will surely cause issues! So now i cleaned the plug, put it back together and cleared the fault codes. will try to go for a run tonight to see if the 4 amigos reappear.

Thanks the hub on the other side is only a couple of months old so that is why im surprised there is a difference. The hubs in the rear are a few years old and they are the same as the new one. I think i will need to do some investigating. Also ordered a slabs ecu they are cheap enough 😅

I did not understand this bit, can you please elaborate. I have heard that sometimes shims are required, is this what this is about?

Ok will try to disconnect the right side, see what happens.

yes ok, however i still think that when stationary those values should be the same.

yeah, seems like i do have a mix up somewhere. reading live data i get 2.19V on all apart from the RIGHT side which is 2.21!

well as usual, you re right lol. even though i got a left sensor error, reading the live data while stationary shows that right side to be different from the rest. still within range as the others @2.21V but the rest are all 2.19V. Now since the hub and sensor on that side is also quite new...

Ok, will try that although last time i tried to get some live data from the slabs system, my nanocom kept loosing connection so im bot hopeful ill manage. Maybe its really time for a new slabs ecu.
