Re: oil in wheel drive
drained the rest of the axle drives today,oil poured out of one other filler plug,checked oil levels in the diff units,oil poured out of level plug on 2 units,same 2 as axle drives,so I am assuming it was an over fill problem.is this a correct assumption?

Re: oil in wheel drive
Your could take the clamp off the larger diameter on the yellow boot and see if oil comes out and also take the axle holding bolt out and see iff oil comes out there also.

My guesses
Oil in the yellow seal would be from the cup seal with sealent (if P93) and cup seal with o ring (if P90). There is also a wiper seal on the ball
On the end of the axle sleeve there is an o ring
Could it have been overfilled?
I got piccies of most the innards

I was thinking about a set of them to but the add on in weight is a bit silly. Would be great for serious off roading as can fully deflate the tyres. I would have to...

Re: oil/water heat exchanger
Have found several alternatives for the oil/water heat exchanger off later VW/Audi vehicles.
I will update when the bits arrive as I want to ensure it fits neatly

Re: Fiat wheels on a Haflinger
A daft question as I Liked this thread.
The larger 12mm lugs cannot be fitted to the Haf hubs?

Re: How much does your TD smoke?
this one is smoking like a steam locomotive http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymKeVcHR ... r_embedded but it aint normal.
clean fuel filters and the tank out, and injectors, injection pump and should improve dramatically.

Re: Thor movie
Just guessing it must be a fictional movie
As in a preview I saw today Natalie Portman was in the pretend TD (gasser) having a normal conversation whilst driving i.e. not screaming over the engine.
