Can you not just crank the engine over without it starting by not pushing down the clutch pedal? |

Without the clutch peddle the ignition just switches on and off. The only way to get the engine into any sort of life is to push the clutch down. https://www.youtube.com/@scottandalana4x4 |

Saturday update: Me and Alana were out at it at 9am and we finished at 3:30pm. We started off by draining and switching from the eBay reservoir to the Britpart reservoir, flushing and bleeding...and...no luck. The same issue still persists.

If it helps, in 2 years of ownership we have had: - New haldex - New rear diff - New steering rack - New steering pump now - New clutch and flywheel with seals done at either end of the transmission - Timing belt and waterpump - Track rod ends - Handbrake cables and shoes - New shocks, springs and top mounts all round - New front wishbones and control arms - New aircon radiator - Mounts in and around the engine area. That's before you get to the tyres, guards, liftkit and other stuff I'm sure I've forgotten. I always think that one day...just one day it'll be a car that stops going wrong for at least a year. SYFL2: I treated myself to a Greggs latte and Alana got a Starbucks frappe in the hope we can celebrate. Today's update: We have been out and about doing the shopping and the likes and so far so good. Fluid level isn't dropping and the steering seems to be all good. Alana's going to use it for work next week so I'll give a final update after Friday to see if we can officially call it fixed. https://www.youtube.com/@scottandalana4x4 |

Just to hopefully round up this thread. Alana used it for work for a week and we have since used it a decent amount. It still feels like something isn't quite right, but I'm putting that down to me being really hyper sensitive to it from having the issue. So overall I'm declaring this problem as now being fixed! Lets hope I haven't jinxed it now.
