    PAS fluid leak

    On this new K11 - which is still off-road - I noticed a leak on the pipe junction between the flexible hose and the pump for the power steering fluid. It doesn't look a major one, but under pressure it obviously has been sprinkling fluid onto the pulley and spraying it over that end of the...

    K11 (N reg) for sale: repair or spares

    I have decided to replace my N reg K11 - in fact I've just bought a slightly later K11 - and so it's for sale. I was told by the garage when it passed its previous MOT that it would not pass the next one without significant welding - I am not a welder and so decided that the cost of repairing...

    New K11 - worth doing anything to underbody ?

    I've just bought a new, well to me of course, K11 - 1999 - and unlike any of my cars it has a clean underbody, it may have been pressure sprayed, but as soon as I drive it any distance hereabouts it will become covered with mud and other delights of country life (e.g. from the dairy farm nearby)...

    Start motor or solenoid problem ?

    My K11 has just refused to start - which is rather unusual. When I turn the ignition to start there is no noise at all but I do notice that , with the bonnet open, I can hear the starter motor turn after a second or so but at fairly low revs, certainly not enough to engage and start the engine...

    My tyres have changed size !

    Well, not by themselves...I took my K11 to a well-known tyre company and asked for a new pair of front tyres; I must admit that I didn't specifically give the size - I had called in a few weeks previously and given the details and, so I imagined, they would have got it right. Having to wait for...

    Changing gearbox oil - speedometer drive fun

    I've had this '96 K11 for a few years so I thought it was time to have a look at the gearbox oil - when I checked the level a few months ago it was on the low side and looked quite dirty so I've just changed it. I looked at previous posts about the job and in fact it all went quite smoothly...

    Radiator fan no longet runs !

    Radiator fan no longer runs ! I've thought for a couple of weeks that the engine wasn't cooling as it used to (well I've had the car for six months) and confirmed it on the weekend - but I cannot really see why so I'm seeking your expertise... I went out on my weekly trip of 30 miles - and...

    K11 not starting - diagnostic say ignition system failure - but where ?

    I've had this N reg for a few months and it's been fine. Sadly I caused the problem when it overheated (obviously not fully antifreezed) shortly after starting in the morning (no problems starting then). I left it to cool down/de-frost but simply won't start; the engine turns over easily but...
