Re: Nissan Vannette/LDV Cub. Opinions?

Dmf is Duel mass flywhee. I'd be looking older vehicles ideally for the mileage you do. Depends how much room you need but I swear by the early Berlingo/ partner for being as good as a car as it is a small van. I've done 13500 miles in mine since October and it's let me down 3 times. Once when I fir...

Re: Nissan Vannette/LDV Cub. Opinions?

Re: What did you do today?

I would look carefully at the servo pipe work. I had a problem with one the other week that when the pipe was off it fell into a coolant drain tub and got a little water inside. That was enough to fuck up the one way valve. Blowing it through with compressed air really buggered it up so I had to ch...

Loads of White floaty bits came out driver side rear,driver side front had a monumental air lock. Passenger side had a small amount of air. Taking master cylinder off had allowed air we thought...

We did first thing there was brake fluid going to pedal but it seems more like moisture/condensation. We have had the master cylinder off and the seal is dry as well as the rod so it can't be brake fluid like I first thought.
