Not quite correct - there have been further developments along the same lines as the EGR valve (fortunately not on our trucks) EGR is the work of his minions DPF is the work of the Devil.

Ive been driving to south of France and back for the last 15 years. I have never been stopped or hassled in any way - yet. I believe that you currently must have: 1 Triangle 2 yellow vests 1 full bulb spare kit 2 breatherliser kits GB sticker on car headlamp deflectors fitted. Also advisable...

I'm back I returned yesterday. The car was great driving all the way to the south of France, picking up the boat and driving it all the way home again. I was surprised how much more fuel the car used though with the extra weight. At least most of it was BIO as I packed the boot full of extra...

Methinks thoses turbos could do with an air filter :eek: I've heard it can get a bit dusty in the desert:D

[/IMG] MMMMM lovely homemade Biodiesel pumped straight from my garage into the car.

Two rear droplinks only to pass :thumb2 Advisories were flashing airbag light. I have tried both methods on here to try and re-set it, but it doesn't work for me. I've done 7000 miles on BIO so I think the gunge in the tank is well and truly cleared out fully now. I have an extra inline...

I have just got back from a weeks holiday in the truck. On Monday I drive to the south of France to pick up my 2 tonne (including trailer) boat and return to South Wales with it. It will be my first very long towing journey. I'm using B100 :thumbs (home made biodiesel) so the fuel costs should...

Thanks for the replies. I'll start having a look at these areas. I'm also skint having just puchased a house, however this is the wifes car and she will only complain when it gets too hot in summer, and it takes us all to France for our summer holidays where it is usually roasting 35-40 c

I bought my car knowing the air con system was faulty (Back in October it didn't seem like a problem as winter was approaching) In the service history I can see a recent bill for a regass. I'm guessing that there is a leak somewhere. Before I go and have a diagnosis, are there any usual...

I had a new clutch fitted this week, everything seems well now except the temperature reading on the dashboard. Please can someone tell me the location of the sensor? Could it have been damaged or not plugged back in during clutch change? Could it be the battery disconnection has upset the...

I,ve got 200 litres of home brewed B100 in the garage. I will be saving it in case there is a strike in two weeks. I'm thinking of putting a sign up "Beat the queues, Diesel only £2.99 litre!" (Of course they would have to have it pumped into a jerry can for legal reasons lol!)

I can confirm that the set of four are indeed Michelin Latitude cross and the single nearly new single tyre is a Michelin 4x4 Anyone interested make me an offer?

Just an update on this: After phoning around loads of garages the best price I could get was £300 cash in hand for the labour only. The car is now rolling again today. Quick question: the outside air temperature is showing a fixed 11 c. it's nearer 21 c today. I think the garage may have...

Just the one.

I Also replaced my radio cassette (with the hazard in the bottom) with a Sony. I bought these > http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/140353782336?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649#ht_1747wt_893 Super cheap and did the job. They plug into the cars original lead and then to the sony lead...

I think it is the Michelin Latitude "cross" like in this advert: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1-x-255-65-17-T-Michelin-Latitude-Cross-/320857959410?pt=UK_Cars_Tyres_RL&hash=item4ab49febf2#ht_610wt_698 I will check the exact patern later. The single tyre is the same as this one...

I have just purchased a new house and the previous occupant has left an entire houseload of stuff. In the garage are 4 matching michelin latitude 7.50 R 16C with 4mm-ish to 6mm-ish tread and 1 Michelin 4x4 same size nearly new tread. I have no idea is these sizes would be of any use on any...
