Thank you @Nodge68

@Nodge68, @Jayridium, @kernowsvenski, I just found a NEW leather MGF wheel in Germany for 99,00€ !! :D:D:D Given the import duties now for anything from UK, this is most likely my route. Just need to call the people on Monday and check that the part is indeed NEW (call me a sceptic if you...

Now that is very interesting @Nodge68 on the MGF front. Thanks for confirming the interchangeability mentioned earlier in this thread. It may be I can find one at a more reasonable price than an LR one and use it while I re-trim or modify mine. Or just use it.

Thanks for linking this here, makes it a single point of reference for me. Seamstresses rock don't they?!

Thanks for your thoughts Jayridium, that is helpful. I live in France and I have no neighbours for as far as you can see! It's nice. Downside is finding appropriate skillsets for this sort of thing. I just checked in my decode of the VIN, the "Interior Trim Colours - Alpaca Beige Leather...

I don't offer invites often. The last time I did, the idiot who had pre-loaded showed up with his drugged up ladyfriend and they decorated my newly painted walls. Skills from RM days went into action after that debacle; they were lucky to escape with their lives. So go nicely please! You...

I believe you have ordered correctly.

Hello Pete, I suspect they are not interchangeable by virtue of where/how they fit. For YUG103110LNF look at https://parts.jaguarlandroverclassic.com/yug103110lnf-switch-heatable-seats.html For YUG500290PUY look at https://parts.jaguarlandroverclassic.com/yug500290puy-switch-heatable-seats.html...

Hey swatts70 - THANK YOU! :)

Hello all :) I would appreciate a steer toward getting some "sticks like 5h1t to a blanket" double sided tape for rubbing strips. My facelift has a slightly damaged strip that I want to remove, straighten and reattach. Recommendations please? Thanks!

I'm watching this too! I have the opposite. I have to source one for LHD TD4 facelift and put it in!

Thanks for that. I've done the same thing on Smart Cars. Are the doors on FL1 Facelift the same as FL2's would you know?

and this screen grab in the attached image makes my blood boil... Is this Brit Part masquerading as Valeo or vice versa???? Furious. :mad::mad::mad::mad:

I have some bitter experience with eBay parts for my motorcycles and a peugeot partner van! I agree with you. Spend wisely, do it once and do it right. Why complain about main dealers prices, then go cheap yourself and end up spending twice as much or more, or worse still break down on a...

Just did! :)

Can I ask which make of pump you opted for please?

Thanks Andy! Sounds like I better get the Haynes manual!! 9Nm is nothing! That was my concern, that it would be quite low. I think I'll do that and put a touch of loctite in. As for changing the pump, well I think that is quite the right thing to do. After 15 years and 160K miles of heat...

Hello all, I see that I can buy all manner of makes of door glass lifters. Ridex is one brand that seems to have reasonable pricing. Any experience with any particular brand to avoid for reasons of poor quality or early failures? Thanks!

Hello, I'm in France and just collected a facelift 2005 TD4, (257000km/160000miles). My french skills are reasonable but sometimes I don't get the full answer I am seeking. There was a new thermostat in a box. SELLER: - "The previous owner said the thermostat was leaking but I never had fluid...

I wouldn't put a jet wash down there!! I have yet to look in my TD4 screen wash tank, having only collected the vehicle last night. But if the material were to resemble an ML350 Mercedes screen wash tank, jet wash will undoubtedly fracture the tank. The Merc' tank became crystalline and...
