Re: Seats question
I have just fitted Saab 9-5 seats on Saturday to my camper. Quite an easy fit and ultra comfy, worth some consideration!

Re: No drive
Thanks to all who have posted, but just so I can wrap my head around what has happened, if it is the bolts that hold the CV, why does the van lose all drive to all the gears? Many thanks Broadacus Because your gearbox has a differential, so basically if your drive shaft bolts have snapped that side...

Re: No drive
I wouldn't of thought the slave cylinder would of gone as you say that you can still go though the gears, but is that whilst the engine is running. I would of thought drive shaft bolts sheard or if all is good with the drive shafts then its either clutch or worst still gearbox internals.

Re: t25 friendly garages north manchester
The one underneath is worth changing for a new one but the one in the carb comes out and you can clean it. It is tiny and difficult to find if you don't know where to find it. Take the fuel pipe of the carb and screw a small self tapper finger tight into the metal pipe on the carb then pull it out. ...

Re: autohome roof.
I had exactly the same problem. I found a contact who in Poole who used to make new parts for Autohome roof's but stopped making them years ago. My solution was to remove all the roof and fit a second hand high top. It was the best solution as I now have more storage than I could ever want.

Re: t25 friendly garages north manchester
You say it only started after running out of fuel, has it sucked a load of crap in to the fuel filters? There are two, one underneath and a tiny one in the fuel inlet in the carb. My 1.9 DG had a similar fault and this solved it. Worth a try or if you are not confident I am only in Oldham so pop ove...

Re: Camp sites Swanage - Portland Area?
We paid cash for our stop over but I'm sure they had a card machine on the counter. The shop was well stocked and open when needed. Have a good time .

Re: water cooled T25 cutting out...please help
I don't know any local mechanics as I do all my own work on the camper. If you need any help you could always drive over to royton and I can show you what needs checking.

Re: water cooled T25 cutting out...please help
Have you checked both fuel filters. There one on the fuel line near the petrol Gand and a limitless one inside the carb where the fuel pipe connects to the carb. I had running issues with mine and it was the filters blocked.
