done all the above. No amp drain, volts 12+ / 14+ . The belt which runs the alternator and power steering is self tensioning. I am now thinking the old battery is dead, even though it shows just under 12v on the dvm, and the new battery is faulty - the condition indicator shows knackered even...

Its not fairly new briggie mate, it's brand new. I'm definitely going to bed now....

no parasitic drain at all. tried it on all sorts of settings just to check. nothing. no drain. I would have thought I'd see something, even it was very minimal ? Anyway screw it, battery's disconnected, gotta be up at 3.30 so I'm off to bed now.

Battery is brand new. Volts across the battery with engine running were around 14. Done all the checks I know how to. I really just need to know how to check for a drain.

Electrical advice needed for my peugeot. Can anyone explain to me in idiot terms how to check for a battery drain ? Story first : The battery was flat on monday, so I bump started it and drove it to work (80 miles) It was ok midday, but flat again in the evening. Got a jump start, drove it...

Don't know where you got that info from Plank, according to nissan4u the part number is the same for the brake ring set all the way through. http://nissan4u.com/parts/info/402577F000/ :nenau

No need Zippy, this has got to be one of the easiest jobs on a terrano/maverick - it'll take you 5 minutes mate. I adjusted mine while the mechanic was doing the rear brake lines. He had the back of the car jacked way up in the air so I thought I might as well take the opportunity.:nenau

front anti roll bar, snapped off at one end . Fixing it tomorrow :augie I go over this particular roundabout every day, there's very good all round vision on the approaches, and you don't really need to slow down from 60, but I usually coast down to about 40 in the interests of tyre...

They need a good thrashing every now and then, but don't try it with half a front arb. After a bit of to and fro on the dual carriage way, some loser in a Crossfire thought about trying to overtake me on a roundabout near home the other night, she pulled up alongside me on the way in, we got...

Lucky they don't speak any English, they might tell you how bad yours is. :rolleyes: They wouldn't have done mine for a tenner, it took me over an hour with the jet wash, and I had to take the wheels off to get to all the mud ! Thought I'd broken something when I went up the road - anything...

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh I see.

won't be a deep offset then, possibly no offset at all.

what size spacers were you using with them ?

Had several enquiries locally but no-one has actually come to see it yet.

Knocked it down to the very basics. My number's on there if anyone wants to look at it before bidding.

why does it sound like a money pit ? Because it's got a small oil leak and the side steps rattle?

What's negative ? The oil leak is the only bad point about the car. Never cared what other people do with their adverts, never thought it's ok to be economical with the truth or hide stuff. If someone buys this car off me they will have absolutely no reason to complain.

Directions to the nearest truck stop ?

yeah not really my style to tell lies.

Or a train ticket.
