    300tdi Temperature Gauge

    Cool, thanks! I shall get a picture just to check. Also, while I'm here, it feels slow. I mean really slow. 5th gear is pretty much pointless on anything other than downhill. Doing 60 on the motorway, im almost flat out, just to hold speed. Any slight incline and I have to change down. Is this...

    300tdi Temperature Gauge

    Hi all, Ive owned the truck for a few weeks now. And I've never known the temp gauge to hit the middle. The needle is always around 2/5ths from the bottom. The viscous fan is in bad shape, blades snapped etc so if anything this should mean it warms up quicker? Ive tried driving it up hill, low...

    300tdi Flasher Unit Confusion?!

    Indeed! I've found some odd things in cars I've bought, but this is just down right odd. Although I almost sympathize as there arent many places to solidly mount a switch. I think im gonna take that out and fit a big 'jet fighter missile launcher' sytle switch. Just because! I think that whole...

    300tdi Flasher Unit Confusion?!

    Right! Bleedin' thing! So regarding the relay near the rear light. I stripped the panel back and realised this is for the tow bar. Which is fine, except that the signal wire is switched by this: After a bit of messing around with fuses and relays. When i pressed unlock on the fob, i could...

    300tdi Flasher Unit Confusion?!

    The truck is full of choc-blocks and scotch locks. Im usually a crimp and/or solder man. Ill strip the panel out and get some proper pictures of what wires go through the box, which I'm assuming it a relay.

    300tdi Brake Pedal Feel

    I tested the servo, by pumping the pedal and starting the engine. And it does exactly as said. Goes rock solid, start the engine and the pedal goes down. Its loads better than it was before fitting the master cylinder seals. But still not great. Ill try bleeding again tomorrow, and see how that...

    300tdi Brake Pedal Feel

    Hi all, As per, ive had a search around for my issues but nothing is jumping out as a solution to my problem. My brakes feel very 'flat' or 'dead' if you like. Nothing happens for the first half of the pedal, then you get a lot of resistance and a bit of brakes. Push a bit harder and you...

    300tdi Flasher Unit Confusion?!

    Update! So I popped the relay back in, checked all the fuses. All good. Ignition on, indicate left, 1 trailer flash then signal flashes. Perfect. Indicate right, relay goes f*%king mad, buzzes and pops both fuses. Sh!!t. So now I'm out of fuses, but i know the relay is fine and theres a...

    300tdi Flasher Unit Confusion?!

    As far as i know its to do with the tow bar wiring. If the truck came with tow bar wiring from factory it had a 4 pin (Disco 1), if it came without it only had a 3 pin. Unless, of course, some smart feller fitted tow bar electrics with LR parts.

    300tdi Flasher Unit Confusion?!

    Right, both of those fuses were blown. Swapped them out and I've now got a horn! ... but still no hazard or indicators. Pulled the relay out and brought it into work. Opened it up and the switching arm was stuck down. Free'd it up and blown it out now, will pop down and test it shortly...

    New'un From Stevenage, Herts!

    Of course! I wouldnt know where to start just yet. I've had a few mates do the old 'yeah, i know loads of little lands and bridal paths,' but that can cause me a fair fair bit of grief. So i think the plan is to get a few OS maps and find some local 'laners. Before ANY of that, theres lots to...

    300tdi Flasher Unit Confusion?!

    I was always under the understanding that relays were usually a few quid ... a fiver at the most. In all honesty, until payday finding £30 for a relay isnt an option, hence trying to find a cheaper alternative for now. Nothing happens when the indicators or hazard button is pushed. Nothing...
