Looked at the rear of my 75 and noticed it is listing to starboard - time I think for some new rear coil springs.

Check the rear arms too, a failing arm can cause this issue.

Make sure it doesn't look like this. 5 miles before total collapse!

Got the blue orange but got Key 1 and Key 2 on the stereo. I joined them to blue / orange and blue / purple both ways but no joy. Are you saying blue / orange needs to be spliced into black and just connect Key 1 to blue / purple? Cheers mate

Changed the oil in my manual gearbox today and replaced the damaged reverse switch. The job went well, the only odd thing was that 2 litres of fluid came out. It only took 1.6L to fill it back up which is on the upper end of the official amount. Go figure.

ABS light came on leading to a 2 hour battle with windows to finally get toaf to narrow it down to the drivers side rear. How hard can it be he thinks opening Haynes. "Remove rear seat.." Promises to be fun.

I would be checking the hub rather than the sensor, i must have changed over 30 rear hubs over the years and only one sensor!
