Passengers must also sign on and this can be done when buying your ticket.

We will be setting up on Friday afternoon at 3:00pm and if you would like to help then please meet me at the entrance gate at 2:50pm (what 3 words:  roost.develop.bachelor).
There is camping available at the site on both Friday and Saturday nights for club members.

Please also remember that there is a driving day that anyone can come along and drive the marked route (in any 4x4 vehicle), try out a few of the competition sections from the day before or just explore the hills and magnificent views as you wish.

All drivers and passengers must sign-on at the Club Caravan and drivers on the course must have a suitable Drivers License (except in the Kids designated drivers area).Tickets are available from: https://www.tickettailor.com/events/scottishlandroverownersclub/1255615?

GENERAL CHAT / Vehicle Trackers

« Last post by Alan Mc on May 11, 2024, 08:08:58 AM »

Just been fleeced by my insurance broker who got me to renew last month but snuck in a requirement for a Tracker in the small print.   I’m going to complain but anyone had experience of:

Getting a recognised tracker;
Fitted by a recognised technician;
Having a subscription in place to cover?

Looked at briefly and looks like an additional cost I don’t want to pay.   

Thanks, Alan.

FOR SALE / WANTED / Re: Standard diffs

« Last post by 90csw on May 08, 2024, 11:14:01 AM »

Hi,
I have in the garage a pair of standard diffs from a series 3. These have done around 45k miles so are in good order.
They come with 3 drive-shafts.
They actually belong to a friend (in Arran) but I have been given the task of selling them. I will find out how much he wants and let you know. Alternatively you can make an offer.
I am located in between Lockerbie and Moffat.
Regards,
Bill. 0770 451 0297.

I'd try changing the oil pressure switch on the engine

After that you may be looking at an engine swap / rebuild

TECHNICAL CHAT / 300 Tdi Oil Light

« Last post by Mikey on May 06, 2024, 05:44:00 PM »

Hello,

My oil light has started sometimes coming on whilst idling. Weirdly it used to flicker on whilst slowing down (foot off accelerator) but only in the wet, when plenty of rain water had sprayed up around the engine.

It now seems to come on when the engine's hot, and whilst braking, coming to a junction for example. As soon as I push the accelerator the light goes off.
Wasn't sure at first of it was an electrical connector issue, so I re-terminated the spade connector at the oil filter which was rusty (and covered in oil....). This seemed to sort it out but the past couple of days now it's been more constant. Is that connector at the filter the oil pressure sensor though?
Oil level is spot on, on the dip stick.

Any thoughts appreciated. 300Tdi in a 110.

Mike
