I'm also wondering if it may be linked to my whistling noise when the turbo kicks in. I'm still getting 1 bar of boost but also a whistle, like air escaping. All Hoses look to be OK though.

I'm thinking uj may be on its way out.
Drive line oils, both axles were changed recently. Not sure about gear/transfer box oils.
Is there any other oils to check or replace?

Thanks Steve.
It's just for an old caravan, so just the usual ,brakes, indicators, side lights etc. No charging unit or anything like that.

Hello,
I'm fitting a towbar, do I need a relay box for the electrics or can I just connect the 7 pin plug upto the existing wiring?

Thanks

Hi guys.
The clunking noise is when the car is stationary as well as moving. It sounds like someone hitting something with a hammer.

I had a quick look for the lift pump at the weekend (it was raining so only a quick one) and couldn't see it.
Where is it located please?

Any pics appreciated.

Thanks
