Yes, weirdly nothing in the rave for removal of this line.

Is this a radiator out job? access looks tight! any tips or advice appreciated thanks.

Thanks for the steer - anybody got the bearing number for D2 td5 2004?...

As the air con pulley bearings are squealing I am thinking about deleting the air con pump by removing the compressor and replacing with a new pulley idler and bracket - any issues I should know about?.. I am in the Highlands so cooling a bit of a wasted luxury...

Thanks Gents!

ok so driving home down steepish wet slushy tarred road using gears to reduce speed given current road conditions. I change down into 2nd to make a turn and have to press brake gently to make the turn. No brakes, just hard vibrating pedal. No option but to abort turn and continue only to find...

sadly no - its a stud type which relies solely on the the thread seal and the tbox drain plug is the same. rave refers to loctite 290 for thread blocking but I was trying to avoid dropping good oil, drying the surfaces and waiting 4hrs for it to cure. Any suggestions may be welcome.

any tips on sealing theses stud type plugs with no flange?..

just for closure, alternator died.

Yes it would catch the back of your throat if you let it! What are the go to places?..

On getting out of the car tonight I noticed a burning smell and quickly opened the bonnet with a waft of blue smoke coming from the front grille on the left side. It is a relatively new starter motor so I dismissed this. Not sure if I should drive this tomorrow, but as anyone got any pointers...

Thanks guys! - i shall look around for a good welder and start a rust fund! - new chassis work nearer Inverness anybody??... Cumnock a good shout Jim.

I may have caught him on a bad day as he didn't even look at it- glad to hear you are as committed as I am!:)

Salt on roads in Inverness I suppose! How do you spray your mix?? I am getting to the stage where the next time I am on a 45 deg incline I will pour in some oil to the end of each of the chassis rails and forget about it!:) Incidentally, i could jet out first with drain attachment:cool: Future...

thanks! thats a relief- my local specialist 4x4 centre dosn't like welding and suggested a new chassis - think maybe he has been sullied with LR's !:) Will take to another garage.

so if it is a good weld the mot test centre have to pass it??

Thanks for this, but unfortunately my repair is forward of this. Mid section adjacent the front trailing arm connection/bush. Tempted to have this cut out and welded professionally but concerned about mot reaction.

Just completed the full annual Dinitrol treatment and noticed a hole to the u/s of the chassis (mid-section) behind the rear trailing arm drivers side. I have been doing this for the last five years to slow the rust down. Had a poke about, made it bigger and temporarily welded lets say a...

both fine-Any other suggestions?
