Looks great! But I've just a word with 'Er Indoors and I'm not allowed two, even if I do let her 'have' the shiniest one :nenau

Thanks, chaps, just the ticket! I'll nip 'round Jewsons and get a bit of 4x2 over the next few days :thumbs If and when I decide to make the repair more permanent, I'll give you a shout, Rick :thumb2 Thanks again!

Okay, I've done a few searches and checked the workshop downloads but couldn't see anything. Usual apologies in advance if I missed something obvious, but was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction? Last week while we were away the wife (these things always, always happen to...

Thanks! Nope, not a photographer, just a dabbler with a second hand Canon that flatters my limited abilities... Jim...Yes, we had a great time. Even on the Monday when we had to batten down the hatches and shelter from the storm in a rocking caravan. I had to get out there and move Terry to the...

Well, just got back from a week on Mersea Island and am happy to report that Terry managed 430 miles without missing a beat...well, almost... Did it all on practically one tank of diesel too, which I was chuffed with...it was hovering between a quarter and the red line and I chickened out-...

Thanks, chaps! Er, Jim, I'll have to decline your generous offer...there's a good five thousand or so miles to go before I do another oil change :D Rustic...Ah, yes, the outside loo. Rather than take it to the dump (there's an awful mixed metaphor or something lurking in there) I decided to...

Well, this virus of mine finally gave me respite enough to tackle my first oil change and I'm happy to report it was a success. :thumbs Yep, that oil filter is a pig, but took the wheel off, went in through the arch and, once I'd worked out that it was me being an idiot rather than the removal...

Thanks, guys! Rick, you have my complete sympathy. I am just getting back on my feet now. After spending the weekend in bed as a shivering, sweating and groaning invalid I managed to get to work yesterday, where my colleagues kindly gave me the easy stuff to do...although I suspect that might...

Okay, thanks, I'll endeavour to get underneath and take a better photo when it's not dark /sleeting. :thumbs The plug in the pic is in line with the front wheels and felt warm enough after idling to be the engine oil, so I'm pretty sure it is and the shop has given me the wrong plug as a...

:doh Ah, yes, that would probably help... It's a 1998 Terrano II 2.7 tdi

Okay, apologies in advance for what is going to be a really divvy question to some of you. I've done a search and I'm pretty sure this is the engine oil sump plug, but can someone just confirm it? I'm doubting myself because when I bought all the stuff the stuff I got a spare sump plug just in...

Ha ha...I'm guessing 'Shoop Shoop Song'? I shall definitely bear this in mind when I'm playing my personal secret guilty pleasure CD, The Best of Betty Hutton...as much as I love her, the 'Anything You Can Do I Can Do Better' duet with Howard Keel at top blast is not going to do very much for...

Can't hear my engine at all over these new speakers :thumbs Regarding the clips, I just hoped for the best and went for it. Yep, I think I'm going to try and go in through the wheel arch...I've printed out all the handy tips I've found in the threads I've searched, so looking forward to...

Okay, So They're In Stuck the Kickers in this afternoon after work and, thanks to several tips I gleaned from here, everything went swimmingly. I ended up getting some adapters off ebay (twice as many as I needed as old muggins 'ere wasn't sure whether they came in pairs, lol) and the door...

:question Okay, going to take the plunge and buy some of these Kicker speakers for my '98 Terrano II 2.7. Wanted to order them tonight but it's dark and cold outside so not really wanting to go out and with a screwdriver and check- I know there's a block connector, so I'm guessing I'm going...

Thanks guys. I think I'm going to be boring and go for something like this... http://www.incaremporium.com/audio-nissan-terrano-front-door-speakers-audio-160w-p-2379.html All I want is something that'll go straight in with no mucking about, making adapter plates or cutting into the door. As...

Sorry to resurrect such an old thread, but the last question seems to have been left hanging and it's one that has now confused me. Like the OP thought, I was about to order some 6x4's as that is the distance between the screws on my Terry. I've found these which I like...

You, Sir, are a scholar and a gentleman! I've just shone a torch up there and, yep, they are indeed hex head bolts there. I would never in a million years thought of that, so thanks again. Wow, I'm loving this place- so much knowledge and know how :bow

Cheers, Banshee! :thumb2 Jim, this is the baby: http://www.sony.co.uk/electronics/in-car-receivers-players/mex-n5100bt Obviously if you shop around you'll well beat that RRP. Mine was an ex-display model from car audio direct that I got for £89. I'm well chuffed with it. Downloaded a free app...

And A Little Personal Touch! Got a lil' decal too... Now after all these little cosmetic personal touches I've got a Sealey 3 tonne trolley jack and axle stands coming next week so I can start getting my hands dirty :eek:
