Hi all. We'll the good news is that the sunroof is shut. Under the white tack / bathroom sealant was the slot for the screwdriver. Was well rusty. At first the pin didn't want to depress. Then it did, I closed the sunroof and the pin stayed firmly depressed. The motor 'works' in both forward and...

Thanks for that. Although I have downloaded the manual I must admit I'm yet to find my way around it. Interestingly I can't see how the sunroof knows when to stop before tilting. That said, mine was broken and I just guessed when closing but I've always assumed it was supposed to stop closed...

Hmmm. If there is, it's hiding. :) That said, under the flap behind the switches (nearer the sunroof) there might be such a thing but the previous owner has stuck some white blutac type substance presumably to stop a leak. Is the motor at the front of the sunroof just behind the switches? If...

Oh what a wonderful day. The sunroof won't shut. It's wound back into the head lining and won't come out. It leaks and the switch and map lights have had a good soak in the past so that might be the problem. I put a multimeter on it and the I can see the voltage change on the centre pins but...

I think I may have confused you all with a stupendously dumb question. Here's the box I was asking about. Of course it comes out the front. Because it would normally be attached to the grill that gets inserted from the front. Doh! Anyway, it's out and it's the least of my worries. New thread...

Thanks for the replies everyone. Sorry for the delay in getting back to you - Tapatalk didn't give me any notifications. Anyhoo, so this is a common problem it would seem. I initially tried to put it all back together in the bezel but it was clear it was all going to fall out again when trying...

And another

Title says it all really. The 'surround' and 'slats' just pop out one day. I guess the plastic clips have broken. Am I right in thinking that the box (with the on/off adjuster) will just come out of that hole (will need a little help as it is a few mm wider than the hole). I guess I can then...

Well worth doing if you have the time before your proper repair as when it goes properly it will be hot foot sauna time and you won't be going many miles further.

No experience of the heater matrix on a terrano but when it went on my Peugeot 306 I was able to bypass it by cutting the hoses, some copper pipe and two jubilee clips. Replacing the heater matrix was a git of a job. Full dashboard out job. The plastic connector on bulkhead broke so it was a...

Well, the tyre shop said they were cheap. Took your advice though and did a search for Forceum reviews. Found that the main complaint was lack of grip. I can agree with this. Have had the back end step out once or twice in the wet. Wasn't expecting that in such a 'sporty truck'. Anyway, I think...

The steering wheel on the Terrano had started to shake, typically at 60 mph. Decided to get that sorted and get the front wheels balanced. Well, one wheel ended up having 90 grams added to it. A record for me IIRC. Anyway, back on the road and its worse. Seems to shake anywhere between 50 and...

I'm quite pleased with my '30 mpg'. Used to have a SWB Landcruiser (G Reg) and that was something like 18. Then had a Subaru Legacy Outback and that gave 30. So, when I found the Terrano did the same I was pretty chuffed. Sent from my D6603 using Tapatalk

My 3.0 is typically around 30 mpg but it's been dropping over the last few fill ups to 28. I hope that reverses soon. Sent from my D6603 using Tapatalk

Guessing at what a thimble eye is I think you will struggle to get one though. Quick and dirty fix would be a figure of eight and a half hitch. Could always splice without the thimble eye too. Sent from my D6603 using Tapatalk

Hmmm. Looks like the blue is an ID60 chip and indeed has a crypto. I'll keep hunting the internet to see if I can find more info. If I do, I'll report back here. My other question though is the RF lock/unlock part likely to work? I't looks the same :)

The 2002 Terrano I recently purchased only came with one key. So, despite having read somewhere that the colour of the immobiliser chip carrier was important (and not having seen mine) I bought a cheap secondhand key on Ebay. When the thing arrived I found the immobilser chip in the Ebay key...

Well yay! I've signed up. Prepare yourselves for an onslaught of dull questions. Need to find that manual linky too.

Gloucester.

Apologies for the delay in getting back but thank you for the warm welcome. Well, she made the 100 miles back from where I bought her and my better half did a 200 mile round trip today. So, so far so good. Have no fear, I will be coughing up and joining.
