|

Hi all my pump seal has gone and I'm looking for someone to fix it
I'm also losing oil from the half moon in my rocker cover gasket so would like that changing too
does anyone know of a garage in the area that can fix it
Thanks Graeme _________________ Very happy owner of Black over grey L400 |

Hi Gra, I don't know any, but if you google " diesel mechanics north east," there are some in Co Durham you could try. _________________ Andy C L300 Super Exceed - over 100 smiles per gallon! |

I'm quite jealous that he gets to drive across a lovely part of the country with fantastic scenery and I get the M25 :? _________________

And Rick goes to other lovely places - Liverpool, Manchester
At least youv'e been to Hilly Herts a few times 'An you think the M25 can be bad, try the M6 at certain times
The M25, most of it does have pleasant scenery, the M6 (IMO) starts to get interesting past Preston,
especially past the Eastern edge of the Lakes, then onto the A74M, really nice
Altho I do see a similarity twixt parts the A74M, and the A470 up towards Brecon.

From Loch Lomond to home, fine rain at the Loch.
A few years back in July, riding across Shap M6, me on bike temperature 12 ° C, horizontal fine rain
Most unpleasant
Worst bit about that ride, due to fine rain, I could not see some of the best motorway scenery - the Eastern edge of the Lakes.
It aint always good up North Mark.
