have just spent the day changing my rubber boot on the end of the driveshaft the hard way! removed wheel brake caliper disc and drive knuckle complete with bearings. Had great fun removing top knuckle balljoint as bolts sheared! Bottom one was even better as one nut sheared off and large...

Thanks for the info Jim all the cables and conections look ok and am begining to think it may be ignition barrel or similar as I have had trouble with the key in the past not returning to its "neutral position" after starting . If I turn the key really slowly the starter appears to turn over...

Just checked my nearside driveshaft and found that the outer rubber boot has split! Intend to replace it tomorrow having bought new one from Milners today but wondered if there was any "tricks of the trade" to doing this. I understand that the hub and brake disk have to come off and that you...

Strange problem with my 3.0 sve electrics. When I start the car the radio and aircon goes off. If I only turn the key to the first or second position they are fine. when I actualy engage the starter and fire the engine up the radio goes off and stays off. However this is not every time only...

Could be,, I may even have swaped wheels around when I checked bearing/hubs. so for cost will go get wheels balanced and see if it makes difference Ta for input

The 3.0 litre is great Ive got one pulls like a train goes like a rocket. I get stupid looks at the lights when I pull off a bit sharpish as it stonks mi tyres and lays down rubber! If you drive sensible you also get over 30 to the gallon so its more economical than 2.7. I pull a big caravan...

Yep balancing did cross my mind but why suddenly now after doing back brakes? Just a coincidence or is there something else going on?

Just done my rear brake shoes on 3.0 litre 03 plate. Cant say I enjoyed the experience as I had a game refitting the new ones back on without it all exploding in my face everytime I tried to fit the last spring in place. worked out that there is a nack to it which is to have six hands and use...

Is it a C200 rear diff? Have been looking on some aussie forums and they say that post 2002 zd30 3.0 litre terrano's used c200 rear diffs same as the navara's anyone know for sure?

Just getting into this club and starting to get to grips with my lwb terrano 3.0 litre turbo diesel 2003 model.Having read a lot about the importance of using the correct oil in the rear diff thought I would treat the beast by changing it for correct lsd 80w-90 and improve handling at the same...
