They were very apologetic and a bit embarrassed I think, but we both got away without a scratch. Laughing

Engine oil changed,fuel filter changed,went to the tip to dispose of oil,bloody thing wouldn't start,all dash lights ok,could hear the starter relay (below the dashboard??) click but no sound at all coming from the starter motor itself,waggled all the wires on the back of the starter motor and boom she fired into life.
I think the spade connector on the the starter motor is either damaged or dirty,removed (was a tight fit) and cleaned,I'll suck it and see...

Was 'Rubbed' up by white van man Banging Head He was trying to undertake on a single carriageway slip road! Quite how a stationary 90 waiting to pull into queuing traffic hit him I don't know. Once I'd pulled onto the verge to exchange details the shouting Censored wit realised it was the road tapering and soon changed his tune. Thank you for side steps Whistle Whistle No damage to mine Mr. Green

He quite fancied his luck anyway........... Till I got out Rolling with laughter Duly reported to my insurance as 'information only ' Steve. No guarantee he won't try a claim, but done the best to protect myself. Technically it should be me claiming, as he hit me, but thanks to side steps nothing to claim for Mr. Green

hmm, they must have been concentrating on something else, fairly straightforward junction & not too blind.

I used mine to get to a 4x4 response team meeting this evening, windy & wet it was too. Mark S

Been busy, sprayed the checker plate black on the side steps, as everything else is black it looked odd to me.
Then pre-wired the new fuse block for the, fog lights, heated mirrors and Scangauge II. Also sprayed the new Puma Pod from Mud UK black ready for the Scangauge. Also removed the mirrors, fitted the heated elements and drilled out the mirror arms and pre-wired them. If the weather improves tomorrow then I'll fit the mirrors and complete the internal wiring.
Will post a few pictures tomorrow. _______________________________

My ECU interface from BAS arrived so remap now complete. What a difference! .. Looking forward to my drive to work.

Pete at BAS was great and put up with me cocking things up by being a bloke and not reading the instructions Embarassed

All good now .. Intercooler next. 2008 Defender 110 XS SW - M57N2 / 6HP28X

Put my steering damper back on after it fell off while I was parking up at work Shocked

The fixing at the chassis end looked like it had undone itself, and let the damper swing down onto the steering guard, as it was still attached at the other end. Fortunately, all the cup and plain washers, bushes, and one of the nuts were still present laying on the steering guard, so I only had to find one nut. Fortunately I had one in an old box of bits at home, which was good as I don't know where you'd buy one of these from, as they're an odd size.
