  1. I work on busses for a living had a Halfords breaker bar over 15 years had a scaffolding bar on it never broke still going strong i broke more snapon/mac tools than i can count but only broke 2 sockets(allen key and torx) in that time 

    i also have 2 snapon battery guns 1/2-3/8 very good bits off kit but expensive and still have to use the bar sometimes to crack the nut off !

  2. Afternoon everyone!

    hi all i got a 86" n/a diesel 110 with the engine seized managed to get it moving nicely 

    If i turn it over anti clockwise moved freely (6times) but if i go clockwise it gets to the 6 turns it becomes solid any ideas would be appreciated 

    thanks

    chris

  3. Thanks for reply

    yes the gauge did move went up to about 2000rpm

    the injectors are squirting out when i crack them off and can here pump

    it was running then removed engine to do the clutch really wishing idd struggled with the engine in now!

    i was thinking crank or camshaft after doing some looking up on here

    thanks

  7. Well snow stopped play so gonna have to put up ith it for a little longer its no longer intermittent but on all time now im hoping it just the plugs that have water in them as my diagnostics is saying dynamic control module 😞

    im guessing you have to strip half interior out for the retaining clips

    the d2 needed burning i changed everything on it an still the abs lights were on even did the bypass on shuttle valve 

  8. 16 hours ago, TSD said:

    IIRC the sensor wiring goes through a big multiway waterproof connector in the nsr wheelarch. Seems a common issue for water to get in there if the connector isnt properly seated - would fit with it starting in the snow as well. Think theres a similar connector in the front wheelarch too, but handbrake fault suggests the rear one to me.

    The connector is generally good and well sealed (best connectors Ive seen on any car, let alone a LR) but does seem to be a commonly mentioned source of problems.

    Thanks for replying I will have a look at them the weekend 

  9. Hi all 

    I'm wondering if any one come across this fault  on a tdv6 d3 all started after driving in snow 

    suspension drops all special settings turn off(hdc)park brake fault has a Amber p on dash abs lights on and seams sluggish also no speedo

    so plugged diagnostic in says left hand rear speed sensor faulty so changed it came up no faults

    but still doing it seams to do it when we turn 

    any help would be very help full
