Traded it in!!!! It got to a point where she was costing too much, both in fuel and parts. Pretty sure the VCU was on its way out, has got tight over the past few weeks. So with a second little un on the way the missus convinced me that we needed to get a MPV (Ford S Max). It certainly has...

Changed the rear diff forward mount. It was totally knackered. Checked the other 2 and they are both fine. Should now stop the thump every time I change gear.

Congrats on winning. Once I get the details I will arrange collection, hopefully for 1 evening this week.

Hi zzr1200 I'm in Chippenham, and if it will fit into the back of my Freelander I can help. Gary

Hi all. Collected from the garage this morning after yesterday's MOT. Passed with no advisories. Very pleased. Will treat her to a good wash and polish tomorrow.:cool: Hope everyone else having a good day.

Morning Landygirl87 Have a look at the link before, it may help. http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f38/picture-posting-dummies-47795.html

Fitted a new LH brake light bulb, 49p for a twin pack from Halfords with a trade card. Can't grumble at that price.;)

Never trust so called Tyre Fitting Experts! Kwik Fit came to the house to fit a new tyre to my wife's motability car. The so called Expert couldn't find the locking wheel nut key. Funny old thing it was in the boot, under the wrench next to the jack in the spare wheel. Where there is a cut...

Since having the thermostat replaced I am getting about 520miles out of a tank. Before the replacement it was close to 400miles.:clap2: Another bonus is the car now heats up.

Sorry to hear that. Fortunately for me my wife can't drive mine, she needs an automatic with Hand controls.

Sun was out so treated her to a wash, while waiting for the Gas man. Also had a look at why the rear wiper wasn't clearing the top of the arc, and after removing the wheel carrier found one side of the wiper arm fixing to the spindle mount had snapped. Nothing I can do but had to order a new...

Changed all the wiper blades, should be able to see in the rain now. The rear wiper arm seems a loose and not giving much tension even though the spring looks complete. Looks like a job to investigate on Wednesday on day off.

Refuelled it, checked fluid levels and tyre pressures.:)

+1 :)

Collected a nice warm Freelander now that the Thermostat has been changed. She comes up to the correct temp now and the heater finally kicks out Hot Air, not just Luke warm. All done under warranty, and glad it was as it came in at just over £500. Hopefully should improve the MPG too. Hope...

Hi. I fitted the BMW PCV to my 04 Td4 earlier. The old "loo roll" filter was absolutely sodden, looks like it had been there for the cars 95k. Thanks to all who had posted threads, the parts were easy to acquire and the job was straight forward. Changed the air filter too whilst I had the...

Hippo Could you send me the link please. Thanks Gary

Will have a good look at thinks in the morning. Thanks for the advice.

Thanks Cremator. Not what i wanted to hear, but suspected. Would this be linked to the juddering when pulling away on a hill? Gary

Hi. Everything was going fine with my Td4 this morning until after pulling out of a junction the clutch didn't engage fully and the revs just went up. Obviously I thought the clutch had gone, but there was no smell. I managed to change gear and the problem continued until i got into 4th and then...
