Hi all, only found the site this afternoon and have had a little look around, looks great.
At the beginning of the year i bought a 1999 Terrano 2.7TDi in black.
I have to say it is a great motor, goes well and is well equipped too with tinted windows and leather seats.
I have had a few small issues with it, but i like to get my hands dirty so i don't mind fixing it if i can.
So far i have serviced it, re-indexed the front suspension, taken off the crappy running boards, adjusted the front wheel bearings and a few other bits.
The one thing i have to do yet is replace the front exhaust pipe, it appears to be leaking from the flexi section, i have bought a new pipe at around £40 but i have quick go at it the other day and the 3 nuts that secure it to the manifold end are a little tight and i am afraid i may snap them if i try too hard, they probably need some heat...but i dont have oxy accetaline to hand...
