Could not find the leak, but found 2 possible solutions: 1. Foot powder spray (£4 per 100g) or baby talc. Cover engine to see where oil leak appears. 2. Oil leak detector from ebay - £12. Oil based fluorescent dye added to the oil, and then with UV torch see where motor oil is leaking.

I read some reviews about this OBD module, looks like it's intended for cars with 14 pin connector only - up to year 2000. Using 14 to 16 pin adaptor is an option, but will the module receive all information it can from the car? Banshee got it all working, but his car is 1996, mine is 2005...

Leak appeared about 1.5 months ago. Front oil seal was replaced and it started leaking noticeably less - probably around 1 teaspoon overnight (on the ground). Oil consumption under load is still huge - probably around 5l per 250 mile trip with 1ton trailer. At this load oil was dripping approx...

What are these cylinders for? And bolts in them? To connect external oil radiator?

It's not my engine, just photo from internet. Yes, IP is missing there, but what is that plate?

Hello guys, I got an "invisible oil leak" somewhere, can't find it for over 2 weeks now. It's definitely gets worse when I tow trailer. I washed the engine and sprayed it all over with Brake Cleaner to find out the leak. Front covers, vacuum pump and front oil seals are all fine, as well as...

I'm also interested if it becomes available by any chance

Thanks guys. I've done not less than 400 miles since key was dropped, so I'm sure it's in the deep part of the sump now. Removing sump on Terrano is pain in the neck - done that last year, so I won't be doing that unless it's really needed. The only thing I could do is to take a HDD magnet...

Hello guys, I asked mechanic I am using to replace crankshaft oil seal few days ago. While doing that, he dropped woodruff key inside the engine. Luckily I had one from spare IP, but he dropped it too.... :doh So, looks like they both are same size, but I don't know dimensions now. They are...

In the summer I run 90/10 Wvo/petrol, in the winter about 70//30 WVO/dino However, I had to replace engine few months ago - don't know what was the reason, hopefully nothing to do with WVO :)

I haven't tried anyone yet. Car is in great condition, no rust at all. Done only 10K miles, last time was on the road last summer. Going to collect the car tomorrow, will check chassis badge for any more details. By the way, as it's old carburettor car, I assume it can drive OK on modern...

I did try this google search :) It seems to me that many of that era cars were "carbon-copied" - they look so similar that you can hardly find a difference between Bentley and Opel :) Here are some more photos:

Hello guys, I’ve been offered a car claimed to be 1931 Vauxhall Cadet 2.2l 4 doors – see photos below. DVLA and similar number plate checking services say - Vauxhall Cadet. But I could not find any other photo of this body design. It looks very similar to a number of other cars including...

It's no M reg, it's YN55. It's Terrano 2, like on photo below:

Thank you!!

Do you know where it may be in my 2005 r20 tdi?

OK, thank you. Will check it there. What about emergency light and coolant temperature sensor? I don't think they go inside same casing. Fuses?

Yes, it's the one from Workshop manual. I just googled "terrano ecu location" :)

OK, you probably mean one on the photo: There is one earth wire not connected on the passenger side, below air filter. It goes from the wheel arch an I don't know where to...

There definitely are no nests - car engine was changed about 3 weeks ago. So, all intestines were inspected from inside. I plan to check wiring continuity of all component's soon. Where is ECU located? Under front passenger seat or in central panel between seats?
