I saw this, messaged the bloke and was going to put an offer in for buying this. I got put off as it looked like it had had new tyres, seats and a quick spray job to look nice, soley for the purpose of selling. Could be wrong but that's the vibe I got.

All sorted. Turned out the selector wasn't central, so wasn't engaging the out position fully. Hence it popping into neutral all the time. Happy days

😂😂

Thanks guys, I'll investigate. Here are some photos of said series. It's a 200tdi 109 (photo inverted)

Hi all, picked up my first series 3 today (fitted with 2a gearbox and fairey overdrive) the issue I'm having is specifically with the OD. Driving along perfectly normally, come to a stop and put her in first, with the OD in position "out" set off normally, 90% of the time the overdrive just...

Hi all, Got a BMW era l322, 2004 td6 SE. It has halogen reflector lamps, a bird strike today cracked my headlamp lens, so I figure it's a good opportunity to swap to xenon. I can source the lamps just fine as I don't intend on facelifting it, and the first gen l322 headlamps are for sale...

Hi all, Having trouble sleevting reverse gear in my disco, with the engine off, reverse selects fine. It's got an LOF extreme spec fitted, all gears were horrible to select u til it bed in. Now it has bed in the reverse is still reluctant. I've read bits and bobs about adjusting the selector...

Hi, the car had a half chassis about 8 months or so ago, a new filter head was fitted then. It's been working fine the past few days but I've not had it sitting for 12 hours +. The starting issues happen after that kind of time not running. The starting problems have coincided with the fuel pump...

Hi, yes 3 minutes exactly, then times out. I presumed 3 minutes was the timeout from the ecu. Yes the ecu plugs are free from oil. Popped the bonnet today, and while the pump is running I can hear the usual gurgling around the regulator. Butaccompanied with a loud hiss every now and again, I...

Hi, Having some issues with my 10p td5. It went to being difficult to start in the morning about 8 months back. Replaced the injector seals with genuine ones, I also took the opportunity to replace the fuel filter and renew the bleed valve. All was good. A few weeks ago, it started doing the...

I get you now, yeah the main body is ofcourse centred. The dual 'section if you like, had that outwards play.. so I'm guessing now its goosed, The dust, the picture overexadurates the colour. It wasn't unlike any other clutch ive changed.

Cant see the flywheel not running true, as the outer of the crank hole was fine, so the flywheel is perfectly centred, maybe the spigot not true, but there isn't any knocking from the DMF, and the engine is smooth as, all the way upto 3k. Then it just gets very loud and vibrates its balls off.

If anyone wants to see the bonded spigot, people usually do when i told them how much of a bodge it was :D:D I'm not sure if to be proud, or ashamed. Ha ha Here it is, not a very good photo.. but the stuff its bonded in with is good stuff, we use it for bonding bosses in filter housings at...

Hi all, first post :D Bought a 140k disco 2, pre face-lift a month or so ago, paid 1k for it, and to be fair.. he saw me coming, but with rose tinted specs on, I was never going to not buy it. HGV mechanic by trade, so not scared of doing the work needed to get her right. She obviously had a...
