I don't think Yoyo was suggesting it had owt to do with an MOT, just a possible excuse to get a tug by Plod on a bad day.

Good old atmospheric skip?

These cars are getting older - components fitted at similar times will no doubt wear out at similar times too :o Try putting the suspect wheel on the back if it was on the front previously.

It's still shielded at the front by the bumper. If you look on the left hand side, you can see the metal part of the under-bumper (metal frame/whatever it's called) just poking out in front of the wheel. The water bottle's base is a little higher than that.

I used one of those multi tools with the plunge saw and semi circular attachment depending upon whereabouts on the bumper I was working. No masking tape, it tracked quite nicely in the plastic, but then again the silver part's got more than a few stone chips in it. EDIT - you just have to be...

Did the tyre fitters notice if the wheel was buckled at all?

Mine took a lot of persuasion with heat, you might be more fortunate... :)

No, that's just me not leaving the flimsy remaining rectangle of plastic around the front towing eye ;)

WELCOME Scott! The air from the driver's side wheel arch area just means that someone's forgotten to replace the fuse for the hair dryer safety-disconnect. It means the dryer is running all the time that the engine is working ;) Ahem , banter out of the way - no idea about the wheel arch noise...

It's not leaking oil, it's sweating power or marking its territory ;)

One of the fog lights fell off last year, the other one's cracked & broken, besides I cracked the off side front corner recently when attacking an embankment :o :o :o Seeing as there's a handy "cut line" above the D2 fog light area :bounce: I decided to prune the bumper to gain a bit more...

Aha! Get the wheel re-balanced ;) I once had to do that (not on my Land Rover), but on a previous car when getting new tyres fitted. Turns out the tyre place's balancer had thrown a wobbler (literally!). They only realised when I went back to tell them it felt worse with new tyres!

No idea if its the same as a D1 sorry. Regards getting the flange cap off, I would say so, but you'd probably need to renew the oil seal seeing as you're trying to set fire to it. (Is that why you want to remove the flange nut?) A puller didn't work on mine until plenty of heat persuaded it :o

But they're a 2.25 ton brick which can go almost anywhere ;)

I take it the vibration's there even when you don' use the brakes? If not, I was going to suggest a warped disc..

IIRC nanocom's aren't tied to VINs either. I borrowed a friend's and it work with my D2 no problem.

Another good reason! I'd forgotten about that, Yoyo! :tea:

True bob.

Genuine seals & washers for the injectors ;) Depends upon how often you change the oil - doesn't have to be oem.

Ah, got an old VDO Dayton system in mine- runs off a CD ROM under the passenger seat!
