  1. Hi . I had put one bottle of that in the tank the day before the MOT. This is because the previous years mot tester struggled to get it passed the emission test. This year he tried a couple of times by revving it hard and then testing it but it just kept failing on the cat emission. Perhaps I should of put more cat cleaner in the tank for longer but at Β£20 a bottle I was reluctant. Thank for advice

  7. Anybody know what the effects of a faulty oxygen sensor would be ? Also are they hard to change ?

  10. Plastic seat parts heading for the dustbin. From the small seat, middle row, If these are any use to you - I am located essex IG10. Or If you want them posted, it should only cost a couple of pounds
  11. I used to have LPG on a range rover, on average it doubled my mileage.

  14. Eastenders had a Welhard, I think Alfhard was in home and away. Ill get me coat
  15. iv seen some on e bay in the past
  16. Hi Luke I removed that prominent bit by unbolting the whole black rail and sliding the prominent bit out of the end of the black rail. Then I refixed the rail back down. It was a pain. Perhaps somebody here knows a better way to do it
  17. My auto experience is very limited. In fact I drove this Alphard around in 3rd gear only for the first couple of months and wondered why it was revving so high on motorways There is a thread on this forum titled β€œ70 MPH = 4000 Revs ?” I shouldn't have reminded anybody about that really because its embarrassing 😑 Ill get my coat
  18. Haha Fair point, I did crack open a little southern comfort this afternoon 🍷 I blame my mouse stress.
  19. The Aberdeen Alphard Automobile Association The AAAA It has a nice ring to it 😁 twice as useful as the AA unfortunately im in essex A? πŸ˜•
  20. I can get a replacement, but for now I have striped the outer coating to reveal 4 wires that have i wrapped individually with insulating tape. Seems to be working fine. Also the last 2 nights I parked over mouse traps and I put one up on the exhaust pipe next to the damage. Im feeling a little relieved that none of the traps have been sprung . Hopefully this is a one off that happened when I was parked somewhere else. I did just recently spend 2 nights at Silverstone parked behind a restaurant where their bins are. Anyway ill keep monitoring it for a while.
  21. oil level is good and it looks clean. The gear change bump is very slight and not a problem , I will worry if it starts getting worse.
  22. On the whole my auto gear change is very smooth on my van. Recently iv started feeling the gear change between 1st & 2nd and 2nd & 3rd when accelerating slowly in the mornings. I don't feel it as much when the engine is warm, and I don't think I felt it as much in the summer. ?
  23. Something seems to find it very tasty . I suspect a rodent 😞
