    changing diff oil?

    Thanks! it does have a removable cover on the back? Just my luck? I think the capacity must be around 1.5ltrs or 1.4lts (not sure?? lost quite a bit trying to get 2.8 in??????) No luck googling but roughly the same amount went in that came out so it should be fine? Hopfully the oil should be...

    changing diff oil?

    As long as the rear diff is the one beetwen the rear wheels then I think it's correct? (it did cross my mind also that I made a mistake as the amount for the front is 1.4ltr) Only I could cock something so simple up????

    rear diff??

    Thanks for the advice, I now know that they are not "All like that mate!!!" and The only way to know if the correct oil is used is to do it myself? I didn't want to mess with it originaly as I had a few other thing for them to sort out and I didn't want to give them any reason not to honour...

    rear diff??

    Can anyone help?? Since I picked up the terrano 2 mths ago it's had an issue with the rear diff? Whilst reversing at low speeds with any kind of turn there is some kind of friction and judder and clunky/grindy noise from the rear wheels the harder the turn the worse it get's. I have taken it...

    Creaky clutch?

    Please bear with me, my car mechanical skils are poor to say the least? It's comming from just behind the rubber seal where the black plate comes through from clutch housing (at least that's what I think it's called?) My rubber seal is stuck down and without knowing what exactly what's behind...

    Is this normal?

    Picked it up from Cheshire! I am based in Caerphilly just north of Cardiff. It looked good and I picked it up for a reasonable price, compared to other 7 I looked at is was by far the best and I got fed up waiting for a decent one to come up locally that was affordable, so £24 on the train and...

    Is this normal?

    Just checked on the Oft website and you right it's 6 mths? not suprising they didn't tell me that? Garage is 160 miles away so that takes the pressure off a bit? gives me time to inform them of any issues I can't fix and then take it back for anything expensive?

    Is this normal?

    Is this normal?

    Thanks iansjones, I was hoping this was just a feature? It's done 55000, Clutch performance is fine but I have a creak at about halve way down and the pedal feels rough/notchy at this point. Traced the creak to the clutch housing but that's as far as my mechanical skills go? I thought I had...
