gixer181 Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 Hello all on here its been a few years since I last posted on here so am just updating where I'm at. I've just bought a cheap well hopefully cheap 53 plate Maasai 3 door hard top. Needs a few bits and bobs doing to it one being the usual rear window open/close issue. It drives ok apart from a clonk on the rear when changing gear or accelerating hard again I think this is the rear diff suppport even though vendor said it was exhaust. What I would like to be pointed in right direction with is the central locking. It'll lock drivers side door no problem but wont unlock has anyone got a schematic drawing of the assembly or any ideas what it could be. Opens fine on the key and passenger side is fine.

I was having the window motors changed at the same time so a saving on labour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Landy-Novice Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 well worth checking propshaft support bearings. (assuming its still fitted! ) as these are prone for failing causing banging noise when accelerating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gixer181 Posted April 1, 2016 Author Share Posted April 1, 2016 Yep still fitted so will check as well. Noise sounds further back but thanks for the pointer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
