Another tdv8 to come back from the brink !

Start of another tdv8 non runner - needs turbos …… and probably a whole load of other stuff ! It does seem to have sank down on the rear suspension while it’s been ‘waiting’ for the job- any ideas /common causes ?

Rear suspension sag sounds like a rebuild on the rear valve block, if it’s both sides. £15 or so for a new set of seals from eBay and watch Hazy’s videos on YouTube on how to do it.

Not rocket science !

Finally got round to sorting the turbos! Two inserts and a full service later and it’s all running well - after I drained all the oil out of the exhaust and recovered the missing impeller wheel from the ns turbo ! - did smoke a little after start up !

Update - suspension was all ok - looks like it just had a moment as the battery was off for a while - just the rear brake to sort now and handbrake module!

Ian Barclay in Birkenhead know these cars inside out. All they do is LR, so if you get stuck give them a call.
