Might be worth checking the throttle pot figures on Nanocom.

@Rubberknees might have one in Rotherham but obviously you'll have to wear your stab-vest.

I dought dee 'ad been at cider!

Condenser. Pump itself. Thermostatic expansion valve not gummed up.

It's a bit of a bugger in that when you need momentum to get through the thick stuff it keeps sticking the brakes on and dragging you back in. That central viscous coupling is a bit of a sod too. With a diff lock you feather the throttle and ease your way out. With the viscous coupling you...

All the hoses and then the rad itself. Given that there's coolant in the battery tray the little hose from the rad to the expansion tank would be worth looking at first. You can get UV dye to go in the coolant to help track leaks.

Is the handbrake on the wheel? As the car changes height there's bound to be a little rotation on the axis where the axle would be.

I'll have to check what I bought but they were a couple if quid a dozen off eBay about a decade ago. Think the size might have been on RR.net?

My turbo is original on 179k miles. Pretty solid. I'd think a gasket before I thought turbo. Inlet or exhaust.

Piccies?!

That's not a pothole. That's a sink-hole.

Hmm. A bit undecided on those light guards.

Maybe they were an option. I thought all past '99 had them. Mind you, who knows what previous owners have done.

You'll loose some in the new filter. If your piston rings are all good then it might take a while to run down into the sump. Always fill, run for a few minutes and then top off.
