I've looked into these quote a bit with various companies coming to check. It seems they are very good if you have a well insulated house. Mine is old converted barn with high ceilings etc. None of them would recommend their products :( My understanding is they only heat to about 50C which is...

fuck. We got stung with electric in the move. Our electric only jumped to 41.5p/unit. Currently sitting at £393 a month :( Already planning next solar install.

SWAMBO enters the chat...... I choose nothing :( On the plus side, my neighbour has woods with lots of felled trees and supplies me with wood. We're standing around the fire :)

Our local just lifted to £1.79 a litre.... We've recently moved to a house without mains gas and use oil. When we first put in the offer in Jun, oil was around 50p a litre. We're about to run out and forced to pay £1.23+VAT :( It's going to hurt a bit.....

I did. Swapped my 53 plate for the first 150 (the 3.0L D4D). It was, I guess, the same as a jump from 90 to 120. I drove the 120 non-stop from London to Switzerland through some horrendous snow (remember the "wrong type of snow"? I drove that storm). 13 hours, arrived feeling fine. I drove...

I had to rebuild and flush the cache so the first person to hit any thread will "pay the price" as the thread rebuilds. Any already-visited thread should be lightning fast. Give it a while to settle and see if it's still like that next week.

Odd. There was a substantial increase in memory usage after the upgrade so may well be something odd. I'll take a look and see. Any specific thread I can use?

Odd. Not sure. Threads certainly not deleted. There should be an index thread like in the 80s section. Can you find it in the search? I can restick it.

Which stickies Shayne? Certainly didn't un-sticky anything so might be something odd.

Yup - it's the CDN. I use ClourFlare.

we live for the small things heh....

Confused - why / where are you seeing that flag? I can see you're not there.

Sorry @Gav missin - hope you did not have to spend too much time with SWAMBO. Upgrade now done and we're all normal.

We're all done! However, I need to do another upgrade so it will be down for a short while again. A short while he says......

Sorry you went through that. So many atrocities at the moment! Hosted in Germany so if you see them entering the mess we'll have to move it to somewhere stable like Congo.....

That was my first 150 Gav just after they were released. Had a list failures including: brake master cylinder failure while en route to Italy - this was a one-off bad fuel delivery due to cold fuel (IIRC) and they installed a fuel heater failed KDSS system and a slew of smaller items. This...

:coldsweat::coldsweat:

:astonished:

Well 350k attachments now restored overnight, another 50k to go. Should be a few more hours.

There is a very fine line between lethargy, brilliance and carelessness. It's normally about a glass of wine which tips over into each There were indeed some expletives. I heard my daughter tell my other daughter "dad's broken something again"

Well, that was a pain..... I was doing some "routine maintenance", took another sip of wine and deleted the website...... Oops. A few hours later and we're back up and running with a few bumps. The images are still restoring. They may take a few more hours to copy across Images uploaded today...

He exists as a user but that's not his email address. I will email him directly and try sort it.

LC4 does not have the fancy stuff either. Was just the 5. Those seats look recovered. I would have through they would have had cream plastic surrounds. Still, if the quality feels and looks ok, nothing wrong with it. Some 120 leather would be looking tired by now anyway.

Did this model have the seized brakes issue on the front callipers? Each fix and not too costly if DIY (I have a seal kit I shall never use if you wanted it!) but could be bargaining tool to get it price down a bit.

I leave these little things in just to keep everyone busy. Sorry :(

Yes, it is 20. Should all be good now as I have lifted it on your account.

Think that is now fixed :)

I noticed this too. Will sort it out

Interesting video on fuel injection Highlights a lot of what's been said how the first attempt(s) at changing anything from mechanical this-is-the-best-it'll-ever-be systems to electrical and the bumps faced along the way.

Sounds like it needs to go to a garage for a proper look :(

Hi Bob, Paypal makes it a lot easier but absolutely, a lot of poeple don't have it or want it. I will PM you with options. Regards

Exactly that. Sadly, because of speed to market, competition and budget, you end up breaking a few things in the early phases.

Welcome! They are good looking, and, as recently proved, bullet proof in that colour :)

It was sociable to spend a while there with friends

Careful with the friends thing :icon-lol: Friend: I have the check-engine light come on. Can you use that gismo to tell me what it means? Me: Yes, Yes, I could. Checks and tells friend. Friend: Can you clear it? Me: Urm, sure, but that's not a resolution. Friend in 2 weeks: It's come back. Why...

I've just had a look Andy - it seems iPad is slightly different. You can add to home screen as a shortcut but that still opens in Safari. Chrome, on the iPad, seems a bit better according to the posts I've read. Let me dig into it a bit more on the kid's ipad and see (I don't know much about them)

Not always. Mine gave loads of codes on the 150 but never had the light come on. Guess they were more "warnings" than issues.

I bought a cheapie one off ebay like this one This, along with the Torque app on your phone (paid-for version) works quite well. It's hit and miss on the 55 and earlier diesels. It did not work on my 50 plate 120.

Thanks Reinhard! The push notifications now also enabled so it pings your phone when someone replies to your message.

Since the last upgrade we've now been able to enable some new features and get them working properly. You can now install Land Cruiser Club as an application on your phone or computer. Benefits include: you'll get notifications when someone replies (you can turn that off if you wanted to)...

Welcome! Interesting about the turbines; could you not farm around them?

But not gears though. Doesn't sound like the case is empty, dry seal or something else rubbing on the propshaft. Does it change tone if you go into low or lock the diff?

There is actually a problem with uploading large files directly from the phone. I will look into it. Best option for now is to stick them on youtube and share from there. If you can hear it when turning the wheel by hand then it might be quite bad as there is no load at that point. If you're...

Does it happen with the centre diff locked and unlocked?

Got attacked more than admitting being a brexiter for that change :lol: Links are now still dark but not _that_ colour @TonyP

Takes a bit more than that to offend me :lol:
