Changes to driving licence rules in Great Britain : Directgov - Motoring From what I can see they are just changing the weight restrictions on the licence categories. The test itself will be the same. The bike changes are more interesting. They are breaking the category down into different...

Wheel weights are mostly put on the inner rim these days, so you won't see them unless you take the wheel off. Just take it to a tyre place and ask them to balance them for you. Just make sure they do them all. Tell them you plan to swap the fronts and backs at some point. Also, put your...

No, not really. Anti roll bars are just to make cornering more stable. I'd definitely saucier your wheel balancing. Maybe you've lost a wheel weight. You need to balance all wheel, including the rear ones. Some tyre places will say the rear don't matter, but it does. It causes exactly the...

Well, having not started my landy for a week or so, yesterday i popped the bonnet and found a fecking mouse sitting there looking at me. It was using the stuffing from the padded thing on the underside of the bonnet to make a nice bed on the heater box. How would your cat like to live in my landy?

Sounds like it's gone into limp home mode. Could be any number of things, most likely emissions related, but could be something like an abs issue also. Take it to a mechanic and have him read the dtc fault codes.

I'd say wait till you get the spots. Especially if it's one that you need to make holes in the gutter for. Depending on how high it is and how big the spots are you might want to move it backward or forward to get the right angle down.

No, that was already there. And yes. I definitely need one as my landy is currently without a battery, and as im paying shipping costs anyway i might as well get two and finally do the long awaited split charge. I do like the fact that question is on there and that the battery has a...

Yep, put the order in earlier. I got the dispatch notification about ten minutes later. Should be here tomorrow. :)

There's a utube video about fitting a lift pump I saw a while ago. It did say that if the lever isn't in the right place you won't be able to prime it properly with the manual priming lever.

Two of these maybe? Numax CXV-X 1000 Amp - Leisure Batteries - Numax Leisure Batteries Or just one as the second battery and something else for the main battery?

So, I got to the bottom of my recent sudden starting problem. It would seem that my battery has decided not to hold a charge anymore. Charged it up to a full charge. It gave 13.5 volts. Left it in the garage overnight not connected to anything. It’s down to 10.5v. Water levels are fine, so...

That hole thing in the rear crossmember, isn't that a td5 thing also? My 300tdi has extra bracket things next to the jate ring holes that the tow thing bolts to. I wonder if someone like yrm do just the brackets that you could weld on.

I'll second the buy a new tank vote. It really isn't worth the risk.

Thanks everyone. Chelmsford. I can recommend a really good instructor if you're local.

There's no way you'd fail the reversing. That is by far the easiest part, purely because its the only part of the test you're completely in control of and it really isn't difficult once you've been shown how. It is a bit of a git though, I only missed the deadline by two months myself...

Only three minors :cool: Well chuffed. I know this has nothing to do with Landrovers, I just felt the need to brag a little. Anyway, bragging over. I now need to find out why my fender has flattened its battery for no apparent reason. :(:scratching_chin:

OK, I take that back. The pics suddenly appeared. :o

:nopics: :)

If it is a proper byway you are on I don't see how they can refute a claim. Byways are roads after all. To answer your question though, yes. My insurance actively encourages that I join a club and go off roading and all sorts. It is a second vehicle though and limited mileage to 5k a year.

They are slowly shutting down the tabacco industry without much care for the billions a year its worth. Banded it in pubs and workplaces, work vehicles etc. And now supermarkets have to keep it out of sight. Slowly but surely its becomming socially unacceptable. Government don't care about the...
