I am not disagreeing with you but I know from the machines I work on at work (auto elec on plant equip) that active/stored codes do have an effect on functionality, anyways so far so good be interesting if the fault comes back and same fault code appears etc....

The chances are slim but if I stop the root cause of the contamination it can only get better, get some heat in it

Because the oil runs down the back of the engine thus betwixt the bellhousing and engine block

thats the error code that came up cleared it and the revs are all good (it was read with a delphi clone)

Well the 3 amigos have gone plugged the dianostics in and it showed a fault code for the rear O/S wheel speed sensor, when the 3 amigos came on I had driven a 200 mile trip and the brake on that wheel was running hot due to a sticky caliper, anyways cleared the fault code drien 400 miles since 3...

Well still havent bridged the switch yet, but I plugged the disco in the diagnostics and did flag up a stored code for canbus fault on the engine ecm, drove it rev issue still there, cleared code rev issue gone, both ecm plugs are oil free. been 400 mile since clearing code, its not come back...

its not the armchairs fault been working 12hr night shifts for the last month

well just had a quick look under the disco popped the wading plug out and as expected there is oil in there clutch cover is contaminated so hopefully once the oil leak is fixed the clutch will sort itself out looks like the oil leak is from the rocker cover

Fingers crossed the clutch issue is caused by the oil leak, fix the leak and eventully the clutch should burn the oil of saves pulling the box I will give the back of the head and block a good wash off to see where the leak is

Well managed to get some jobs sorted, rear pads changed, 3 amigos gone (for now) and coolant leak fixed The 3 amigos where caused by the rear wheel bearing having play in it fortunately I had a spare front bearing so all good, Coolant weep became a gushing leak on the way to work, it was the...

I know I really to pull my finger out, but life keeps getting in the way,

Most of the jobs will not cost much money just some time I have a good secondhand watts linkage lying in the garage, the 3 amigos is more than likely a knackered wheel bearing I have a spare one, pads are cheap enough, ball joint is cheap enough, heated window wont cost anything,

Wouldnt not work **** doesnt burn

Shes only got 206k on the clock as well so not even run in yet

My poor disco is crying out for some TLC Watts linkage is knocking like a knocking thing, rear pads are well down and delaminating, upper front ball joint is like a dick in a shirt sleeve, rear heated screen and mirrors not working, reving on gear change, several oil leaks, oil in injector...

Mine has a slight lean to the drivers side I choose to not to worry about and because it leans to the right its helps cornering in roundabouts LOL

I Am not normally a fan of these new fangled electronics I like good ole mechanics diff locks etc.. but I am slowly starting to come round to the modern world

Had a little job yestaday picking up a ride on mower with a trailer, mower and trailer tipped the scales at 800kgs and the disco pulled beautifully, at one point had to stop pointing up a hill covered in leaves (15% incline) and she pulled away spot on kept the loud pedal down and let the TC do...

Well not had a chance to try bridging the switch yet as its been behaving itself, so while its behaving itself bridging the switch wont prove anything, just waiting for it to misbehave then I will bridge it and hopefully it will be the switch at fault.

Well nothing to lose
