  1. this is the reason i put ballancing beads in mine .... (normally used in HGV ) https://www.rematiptop.com/products/automotive/precisionbalance-balancing-compound.html plus with this , every time you start driving , it ballances your wheels again 🙂
  2. thanks for your input ! that would explain why the lower dashboard wasn't fixed properly 🙂
  3. hello all , i was stripping the bulkhead from the scottish 110 (ex mod and seems to be 1985) and noticed some differences with other bulkheads i stripped . the flyscreen is welded to the bulkhead , all i have seen (old one's) are riveted in . and a closed off part , other bulkheads i have seen this is open (it's above the footwell, looking up to the windscreen) is this MOD special , or some idea to improve on the earlier version's ?
  4. charge your battery , the low voltage make's the relais close and open fast , so you get the buzzing noise ... (had the same couple weeks ago , couldn't start the car with a jump battery , charged the battery and vroem ...)
  5. i think he's more looking for this : https://www.strike.com.au/collections/antennas seems to work for 3g and 4g (some even 5g) , so could be usefull on our side of the world (we seem to use the same bands as aus)
  6. mmm i work with Heavy Goods Vehicle's at a Dealer , and we see a lot off hick-ups with can signal's on trucks .... and they are all big diesels ....
  7. i'm not a fan of Can bus technology (way to many faults/hick-ups , even in a OEM envirement) , bit this seems like a decent aproach . can you make a drawing how the system looks like when in the car ?
  8. @stevebus thanks for your offer and the time to dig it out and take the picture's , i'll pass on this one , because i don't think it's any better then the one i have at the moment .
  9. can you have a look inside , all i have seen so far are really crusty on the inside (to the point they have almost pinhole's ) the outside on most seems mostly very decent .
  10. i wonder if this will come to europe : a really cheap toyota .... https://www.google.com/search?q=toyota+imvo&oq=toyota+imvo&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyCwgAEEUYExg5GIAEqAIAsAIA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:eb9845e0,vid:lGfiBKuQoGo,st:0
  11. after some searching , i found a contact adress , so i'll ask them if they can supply the correct size .
  12. thanks for all the idea's , for now i keep my eyes open for a new/very good used one (i'm in no hurry as i have so much to do before i can run the engine) i did , but it is some time ago , so will check with them more regular..
  13. and only a telefonenumber , not even a e-mail adress .... and my chinese is not so good , so i don't intend calling them 😉
  14. using google translate , the chinese caracters say : " bearing" so not much use ....
  15. it is , it seems it just turned out to be the right size for drilling as well (a very long time ago they teached me to be a certified metal worker , and nobody ever mentioned this in school ... we just used charts to look up the right size to drill )
  16. bad idea , just replace the headgasket and torque it propperly according to the manual .
  17. thought about that , but not sure i can get the bends close enough to fit (a "normal" pipe bender needs a fair bit of room between bends).
  18. yes , i found these but i have to e-mail them to find out if they really stock them (it say's "Equivalent to ERR371" , to me that means there not Land-Rover) if they do it might be a good alternative i mailed most of the usual suspect's , but nobody seems to have 1 in stock , and Landrover is out of them .
  19. hello all , does anybody know if you can use the waterpipe from the 300tdi (https://www.johncraddockltd.co.uk/err6197-rigid-coolant-pipe-300-tdi.html) , or doesn't it fit behind/under the Turbo ? engine is a Defender spec so has the high turbo , the water pipe i need is ERR371 , this has a big curve in it to clear the turbo , but is no longer availeble. the one i have is very rusted inside and has a mounting tab broken off (seems a standard isseu with these) this is the one i need : https://rimmerbros.com/Item--i-ERR371 greetings Gerben
  20. i would go with the old spec , and change the collapsable spacer for a solid one .
  21. bearing cup and steel balls , so doubt it wil work .
