Taxi for my landrover please
Saffy:
Went down to Woking to see my mate and pick up a transfer box and ended up being taken home to Wiltshire on the back of a recovery truck :rolleyes:
Matey want to show me a local fording down pennypot lane before I headed home, we pull over at the ford to hear horrid noise coming from my engine bay. Turns out to be the alternator bearing on a hefty rumble.
Decided to make a run for home and got about 1 minute down the lane when the alternator seized right up and started to cook the serpetine belt. So nothing much you can do , no cheats with a serpetine belt that I know of. So out with the RAC and its landrover taxis - membership paid for itself yet gain :dance:
Turns out the recovery truck tech was none other than mudclub member OZ ! so big shout out to him, cheers for the chat on way home :clap:
So new alternator time AGAIN!
Toppa:
I have to admit, it is normaly me that breaks down, was nice for a change for it to be sone one else :(
Had to take a picture or 20 myself lol
Cheers
