That link is interesting. In about 2003 I sold my Land Rover 1998 110 CSW Turbo Diesel (pre Tdi). Guess what, still going strong with a new MOT and 190000 miles on the clock ! - now I want it back !!! |

Hi
No fault messages nothing out of the ordinary. I am about to go put it on a two post lift tonight and see what happens. The audio recording does not do it justice.
