Welcome to the three amego's club mate, it's probably a sensor get it wired up to a diagnostics to find out which one, mine have been on for 11 months now will have to switch them off just before mot time.

Did you drop a V8 in there or not? I miss my old IIa with the V8 lump but wouldn't like to be running her now with the price of petrol on the way up again.

Will do mucca, how you getting on with the series mate.

Alright Yella, that analogue one in the photo would do fine as I've already got a digital one in the truck at work, I'd like to keep the two seperate if you get my drift for the time being until by new business is fully up and running then the truck will be parked up for ever.

Thanks for that red, I wonder if that would fit in the glovebox.

Has anyone had a tacho fitted to a TD5? if so where did they fit it as there is no room under the seats, mounting it on the dash will obscure the view of the road and the radio will not be coming out :mad: . Thought of putting it in one of the storage boxes in the boot, any Idea's guys.

Me too wafty been at it for 15 years and finally find a nice little earner to get me away from a declining industry and BANG Vosa go and throw a spanner in the works. I'd probably chance not fitting a tacho but I've got to pass a ministry weighbridge and notorious check point every trip and with...

Me to Slob you'll probably find some arse crack sat in Vosa's office who's been stuck behind a farmer on his way to market pulling a trailer and thought right I'll sort you lot out like I have done with the HGV's,then turned to his mate and said "how do you spell trailer" this country is getting...

Rang Vosa this morning and explained my set up to them and yes I need a tacho fitting ffs, they told me because the trailer has a MGW of 3.5 tons even running empty I am under tacho regulations. What I want to know now is where the hell do I find a tacho fitting station with a 4WD rolling road...

Adz they've changed the regulations since then mate I think it's all vehicles exceeding 3.5 tons, My misses works with VOSA so I'll try and get a link with the new regs put up later, I'm trying to get this clear myself as I've ordered a new 24ft ifor Williams trailer for carrying cardboard with...

You only need a tacho fitted if the gross train weight of the vehicle+trailer+load exceeds 3.5 tons. example1. Disco 2ton, trailer 0.5ton, load 0.5ton, no tacho required. example2. disco 2ton, trailer 1ton, load 2.5ton, tacho required. You'll be ok with one of those trailers from halfords...

try this speedsensor

Cheers mate, the abs lights are on again and I need to reset them to find out if it is a sensor again or if it was a handfull of gravel on the road(I felt it loose traction on one corner) that fired them up again, It's costing me £40 each time the diagnostics are plugged in thats all and...

Come on clutchdust here's one for you! If i disconnect the leads off the battery then touch them together then reconnect the battery will this reset the slabs ecu?

Personally I'd take it to an independant ABS specialist first and let them look at it.

Sniffpies, after working on tankers for 15 years and knowing what happens to produce "cheap oil" personally I would only use that stuff to oil the hinges on me gate. I only put mobil1 in the disco cos I get it cheap as I used to sub for Castrol.

Well did it and got the teeshirt last week! what a fantastic road to drive on and the view from the top right over the Isle of Man was breathtaking, we got stuck behind an old gadgy in a passat and ended up overtaking him an the grass verge, we did a total of 825 miles in one of the most...

I'd like to shake the hand of the man who put all his effort into the design of the curry hook, engineering at its best.

Hi perky if your over on the Wirral theres a place between J6+J7 on the M53 round the back of Vauxhalls just ask the lads on the scramblers when you get near,I think its an old landfill site thats been capped, plenty of tree's so you can't be seen from the road by the plod.
