Well, I've spent the last two hours grovelling underneath to check any obvious probs with the ABS sensor connection. But I can't really get to it and I haven't got time to remove four caliper assemblies. So, I failed, I'm afraid. I wouldn't even know where to start with a 10mm spanner to get the TC working again!
I suppose I'll just have to live with it for a week or so and then get it into a main dealer - with the resulting extortionate costs.
Typical, cos I have recently been thinking about selling it and buying a decent Defender instead. Now.. who was it that was saying they want a V8 D2 SE Manual with a good LPG conversion in good nick? .. !
