Hi David, my problem is the handbrake won't release and it's driving me mad. I've had someone look at it twice and it's still doing it. When you release the handbrake you can feel that they are not realising, just a slack cable. I was wondering if the pivot mechanism in the centre of the van is sticking, have you ever looked at this component? Cheers Mick

Little tip, shouldn't really use a rachet to break off tight bolts, if the rachet mechanism slips, which it can if it's a cheap one or worn, you could hurt yourself! Use a breaker bar then switch to the rachet

Thanks for the video David. I have one question. When you removed the wishbone - how were you suspending the vehicle, besides the jack on the jacking point? Where were you placing an axle stand precisely as your back up? I normally put an axle stand under the lowest wishbone nut, but obviously cannot do that if I want to remove it to replace bushings. Any tips would be appreciated.
@davidamioffgrid
@davidamioffgrid Ай бұрын
Hi, I normally put the jack under the jacking point, and an axle stand under the cill, chocks under the rear wheels and if I remember put the tyre under the cill also in case the jack fails. I have done it this way for years, but it probably isn’t best practice these days to rely on the cills, especially when the jack is as old as me!
@kampenheimer
@kampenheimer Ай бұрын
@@davidamioffgrid Thanks David. No the sill is not best practise indeed. I wouldn’t do that if I were you. You are risking serious or fatal injury or van damage if your main jack fails. I’d also invest in good quality axle stands at least 3t each.

Ive got a slapping coming from my engine, just ordered the timing chain kit this week. Did you support the engine when taking off the engine mount? Any issues at all getting the mount back on?
@davidamioffgrid
@davidamioffgrid 6 ай бұрын
Hi Frazer, the chain slap will be a slack chain tensioner. I put a hydraulic jack underneath the sump with a lump of wood on top of the jack to support the engine. I have no idea if this is how a professional would do it, but it worked and I had no issues getting the engine mount back on either. It will make life easier if you have long sockets and a long extension bar to reach down to the engine mount. I also moved the coolant tank out of the way for better access. Hope it all goes well 👍

Great video, nice to hear a Scottish accent too! My dad’s van is the mk3 but there is a bit of a racket coming from the engine, no low oil pressure and warning as of yet, the rattle evens out after a bit of driving, my thinking is it’s taking a while for the oil to get to the top maybe due to a pump on the road out or a bad tensioner like yours. Did you say you done the timing chain tensioners? What about the chain? Curious on the millage as well, cheers👍
@davidamioffgrid
@davidamioffgrid 8 ай бұрын
Thanks, ours was just a bit noisy on start up, sounded like the chain slapping around a bit. I changed the timing chain and the tensioner at the same time, probably about 2 or 3 years ago now, so about 175k miles. There are chain guides and a spring loaded tensioner roughly in the middle, ours was worn badly. The chain looked fine, not stretched, so I think it was just the tensioner that needed replaced, but worth doing everything whilst in there. There is a known issue with oil pumps on certain years of these vans, maybe worth looking into. Good luck, Cheers 👍
