Fully Committed Team TV4x4 Club

Hi there, apd2009 and myself are now fully committed( or should be) We saw Tom at Gaydon on Sunday and handed over our entrance dosh for the rally. BTW we had a couple of very fine pints of Slaughterhouse Ale from Warwick while we were there, well it would be rude not to
Just trying to get it all together now in our heads of what we need to take with us. Number 1 on the list is a new clutch, it has been on the way out for quite a while now, nasty noises and working like an on/off switch. Thrust bearing or clutch fork I would think I might be taking a wheel bearing or two with me, I have been having a run on them just recently. Maybe something to do with the places I have putting it, same goes for brake pads. Still I would guess that Tom won't be asking us to do anything too extreme but you never know
Cheers

Welcome from team Land Rovers and wine!

Sorry to hear about your Landy, hope it's alright for the rally, mine's just blown a head gasket.

Land Rovers? Don't you just love them?

All the best, Mark

No worries it will be sorted by then. Sorry to hear about your head gasket, I have replied to your concerns in another section and mentioned check your rad core.
Best of luck

Mark,
As LuckyTrucker man says... check the rad. Dont bother looking at it from the front, 99% certain it'll be OK. Get you hand and hands in around the back. They tend to have a habbit of allowing the cooling fins to rot off the core.

Ive seen this happen on many a LR. Front of rad looks fine, at the back it could be completely shagged.

Also, make sure your thermostat is not sticking and water pump spinning.

Im assuming you didnt have any water leaks before you set off...

Team TV4x4 club are right in it now - right up to your necks! Anyway chaps and chapesses, you seen my post in Shows & Events yet? Real good news with another larger than life character in the fold. Love it when a plan comes together!

Poor ol' CarpeDiem though, what a bummer. Now I know why you haven't got 'Lucky' in your username.
