Re tax and test I would need new mot and 6 months tax before I would consider bidding, just my opinion for what it's worth.

No I don't think it is just yours, while I feel the suspension and ride is good I would not describe it as magic carpet as often quoted on this forum. Maybe is on some motorway somewhere but not on the crappy A and B roads round here. Agree too about the 40K car for 70K. Could not believe the...

Bomb ? (on a timer) Probably with it's own battery.

Just been thru the same problems as Dez and thanks to this forum bought a new battery rather than spending £550 for the garage to change the alternator, problem solved. So I would like to add my thanks to you guys for your help and advise. Ken.

Yea but that only fixes one easy problem, todays new problem is a clunking when releasing the foot brake which is exaggerated when towing. Seems to be drive train related.

Thanks for replys will remove battery and charge overnight then have another go tomorrow, hopefully get this one fixed then wait for the next one. Me thinks I may have bitten off more than I can chew because I do not use it a lot but when I need it, I need it. Nowt else I own can tow 3.3 ton...

Hi guys, quite new to this hobby hoping for advise. Just done first towing job in L322 somehow caused suspension to creak like hell, called at garage, injected lube into various rubber booted joints, stopped creaking. Drove away 500yds from home low coolant level, puled up drive split hose. Got...

Referring to wil's post has anybody had experience of lcd repair kits of e-bay ?

I have more of a whirring sound, assumed it was heating system mixing/shut off flaps returning to rest position.

Thanks Paul. Will do.

Sounds just like what I need, hopefully when I get time in a couple of weeks Paul will be able to do it for me with his all comms, would be good to meet up and see what the all comms is capable of (and Paul) :)

Can you still be able to move the column but ditch the memory function or is it all or nothing ?

No it just seems to forget where it should go back to so I end up with it sat on my knee, powers in and out plus up and down ok, just seems to be a memory fault.

Hi Paul. Thanks a lot for offer of recalibration, I will see how I get on in the garage on Friday. Also intermittent problem with steering wheel memory. I am just down the road from you near Driffield. Ken.

Hi Steve, local garage I use for all my vehicles will be doing standard service plus if it's a keeper will be doing over and above standard stuff as preventative measures. Hi don, not to be too specific East Yorkshire.

Good luck, going thru the same suspension process on Fri !

Thanks Data will be doing all fluids and filters, but it was the other stuff like the vanos etc that you knowledgeable guys could advise me on. Thanks Ken.

Forgot to ask is it advisable to check the vanos unit for peace of mind ? Ken.

Hi all. Just acquired 03 L322 4.4 with gas 82K miles. Booked in garage for service and check over on Fri to find out wot I have bought. Anything in particular I should be checking or looking out for. Preventative maintenance ? Suspension raises and lowers ok but doesn't settle at right height...

Hi, new on here myself having just acquired a 03 plate L322 I would say it is definitely overpriced. I looked at one myself on 03 with 83K miles, gearbox done recently and the guy was asking £8K. Was too noisy and slow for my needs so plumped for a 4.4 with gas. Ken.
