oh burger....again

Postby import-racer on Mon Mar 03, 2008 12:45 pm

im just not having any luck with fronteras...my missus,carol,just called...she was driving from glasgow to hull to pick up a classic car...using the fronty and trailer...she got just short of southwaite services when the box packed up big time...AA wouldnt pick her up coz im the member...so the local coppers called in some guy to get her to southwaite,£111 to tow her a mile and a half...now its going to be £250 to get her and trailer from southwaite to glasgow...and then the price of the repair... :cry:

just reading through gearbox section....do i use engine oil in a 2.3 td LWB gearbox???


big al...[ waiting on misses getting towed home ]... :axe:

what is the problem with the box?
If its lost drive, is it possible that the fwd lever has slipped into neutral?

Trogladite had a problem where his sport lost drive....turned out to be gearbox lay-shaft apparantly
What have I told you about Thinking Erroll??
