Windows 11I haven't actually seen Windows 11 in the wild yet. Last time I had the 'pleasure' of working on a Microsoft PC was back in February and that was still running Windows 10.
My brother had a 6 cylinder Rover SD1 back in the 1980s - the hub on his viscous fan seized so that the fan ran at engine rpm.Stripped the water pump off the Carlton today to see if it was one of the inferior plastic impeller versions10 to 1 you have done it but have you checked the cooling fan is doing its job properly
It was not so now wondering what else it could be for it to still be getting to hot. Head gasket done, stat removed and rad flushed with neat uric acid
Also attempted to remove both front calipers as they are "sticky" to send to Biggred for rebuilding
Could only find one brake pipe clamp and one caliper retaining bolt would not budge
Plenty of Ambersil penertrant around it and give it another go next week
Has a viscous Rae and it’s all working fine. Ahh yes that’s why I asked those viscous fans can be problematic 👍👍 and ferocious sometimes too
Thank you Doctor Gollum for your reply. The hydraulics have definitely failed as when I pump the clutch pedal I get clutch/brake fluid dripping out of the gearbox. LUK do a kit with a release bearing and a kit with a slave cylinder for my car. From what you say I guess the one with the slave cylinder contains the release bearing as part of the slave cylinder.My 94 2.5 did that.
If they are on the CAN bus it might be coded differently. Pointless but who knows what the designers were smoking?Yes, very likely, but the engineering numbers (on the actual sensor) looked different, although that could be an oddity with EPC and my VIN going by DTM's reply above.Front left/front right/rear... All same sensor but different bracket to suit location.And presumably it's the bracket that determines the position rather than the sensorEh?
Unclear how easy it would be to remove from bracket, as in amongst the heavy corrosion on my screws, there were signs of thread lock. The thread is a cylindrical brass insert in the plastic of the sensor, so reliant on thread lock breaking before the insert spins in the plastic. And heat wouldn't be an option. At £160, bit pricey to take a punt, so you'd get the right one, even though its considerably more expensive than the other side.
) estimated gas meter reading while I was out of the country. I sent them an actual reading as soon as I was able to. The reading was rejected. 
It has been pissing down with rain for days, wondering if they will carry on working if the rain stops.............. trying to get resolution
I agree, hence my reluctance to try to carry them or drag them too far
On a side note 30kgs is alot
Where were you starting from? Junction 10 on the M25 is a shit show at the moment and that's on top of the usual BS.Perhaps add - "crap information from Gatwick regarding the parking options" to the list then.
Gatwick allows 2 hours free parking in the long stay.
The only reasons to park in the short stay are ignorance or laziness.
ULEZ is an utter scam but it's almost impossible to avoid if your going inside the M25.
That was an expensive coffee, good luck getting it overturned
.
why did the belt shred?Tenth trip there since the beginning of April
Ta, local factors has a belt in stock, but it's probably going to be prudent to go through the cooling system as I almost boiled it
My phone via it's headphone socket2008.
Bluetooth happily connects to the car for telephone purposes, but not streaming, so 3.5mm jack into RCA plugs straight into the head unit. The car side also has a video input, although that's a moot point as it already has a dvd changer.
It's another thing to code into the head unit, but it's an official retrofit so no Biggie.
Ultimately Spotify an YouTube are significantly better than any DAB/DVB offerings so won't be retrofitting either, and I refuse to fit some hacky chinesey shite into anything.
What age is the Galaxy? A simple HU upgrade could solve the issue... Sony XAV 8050 or similar would tick all your boxes if you've a suitable Din sized hole.
Ran a new loom from the Comand module to the glovebox on the proper car as part of the ongoing retrofit projects.What are you going to plug into it / use a source?
Only a little thing, but as the car is of a certain age, whilst it has Bluetooth, it doesn't allow for music streaming so a more traditional plug and play solution was required. Fortunately it was a retrofit option and the genuine looms are readily available at reasonable prices... A working solution for less than £50 using genuine bits rather than trying to stuff a Chinese Android into it.
