Another sugeston would be the wishbone bushes or ball joints. Better to get the unit as a whole with the bushes otherwise your be there all day drilling rivets and pressing bushes. I changed one of mine a few weeks back as the noise started getting on my tits, felt n heard like a heavy thump...

I've had that happen to me a few times, not very helpful when its ****ing out with coolant.

had a similar problem, i stripped everything down, found i had a ceased handbrake cable acutator, so my handbrake wasnt releasing properly, had a lot of binding, so best thing is to remove everything, wd4 all moving parts and clean them up, re assemble, adjust the shoes then the handbrake using...

you can try rad weld which is ok for very small/slow leaks, i used some on an old car and it does what it says, but a leak where your topping up quite often im not so sure. Or just look for where the leak is, could be a seal thats gone or a slightly split hose. or the expansion tank.

unplug for summer times and plug it back in for winter times.

sureterm direct arnt too shabby, im 26 with 1 years NCB £285, i thought it was a joke when it came up top on go compare, beat the other companies by over £400, although i do pay £650 for me and the missus to drive the focus, but she is just a provisional driver.

cool thanks, its actually easier than i thought, i just got a bit para when i did the first oil level check as i put in over a litre before it was at the correct level, since its now at the correct level and 40%ish new oil i dont get thrown back in my seat when it changes from 2nd to 3rd and it...

Finished the fluid change today and now its at the correct level. I plan todo another change in a few hundred miles, as I know its at the right level is it possible to skip the level check and go straight for the drain and refill by putting in the amounr that came out, does it have to be...

Yeh, maybe its just low on oil. I plan todo a oil change, but would like to get it to the correct level before i go ahead with a change. Just seems suspect that ive put over a litre in before its even at the correct level.

Yep 5mm Allen, I know the one you mean which Buggers it up. I used a probe thermometer for the temp and was reading 40c. You say temp doesn't matter, do as long as its not stone cold should b ok?

Nope, do i decided to stop n consult the landy docs for some advice before I add any more n over fill it. it may just be low on oil but surly Nit over a litre. I phoned ashcrofts who said ad long ad the temp is correct ur should b a straight forward job

Ok so ive done all the homework regarding the checking and refilling the fluid for the auto and so ive started the job of checking the oil level. Went through the procedure of running through all the gears, warmed it Upto 40c, undid the level plug and poured a bit of fluid in,nothing started to...

shot turbo, happened to me, sounded like grinding gears.

Thanks for the info, ill just go by the manual i think. Re Hoses: Considering the ones on ebay you get for about £60 and all you get is 2 pieces (3 if you have the sensor) £180 (£50 of that is carrage from abroad) so really £130 isnt bad when you get the silicone, alu bends, couplers...

That's what it says

So I was just checking all my fuses under the steering wheel and looking at the back of the fuse box cover to see if I have the correct rated fuses. And some of them tell you to use different fuses to what the lr user manual says. Which one should i go by and which ones lying?

mine doesnt have the intercooler sensor, but i like your idea of sourcing one and makeshifting it to fit a boost gauge, i may look into this.

ok, atleast i know its in the wrong place. So i could buy a fitting kit from ebay and tap into intercooler hose before the manifold???

i got that idea from some other numty on another forum, now im the numty
