I doubt anyone can tell when I've got full beam on at the moment though. I really need to clean my lights and number plates as they're all hidden under a thick layer of mud and probably quite illegal :lol:

Service and timing belt tomorrow

Stuart · 07-02-2016

And.... the gearbox has shat itself...

Not getting anything but 2nd gear, and reverse.

Hopefully just needing an oil change..

lowered punto · 07-02-2016

**** not good hope you can get a spare that docent kill the bank balance

M21MFS · 07-02-2016

Oh dear oh dear

Stuart · 14-02-2016

Well I changed the gearbox fluid and filter, this made no difference at all. So after a bit of googling and forum hunting (free plug for www.l200forum.com) I found a mitzi mechanic in Aberdeen that likes a homer. He traced the issue to a broken wire in the gearbox wiring loom and fixed it for a grand total of £40. BOOM!

So it's back on the road. But now the engine is surging, suction control valve is to blame for that, ordered one up and will get it changed on Tuesday or Wednesday.

What do we think to these?

lowered punto · 05-04-2016

My mate runs the even bigger version of these on his massive disco
