The car was kerbed and the hub was bent in the carrier. New hub and wheel bearing needed. <br /><br />To check, jack up and support the nearside, remove wheel and brake disk. Start the car in first gear and watch the hub revolve. If it's all over the place then that's yer problem! http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/cgi-bin/cmm/YaBB.pl?num=1371496470/1#1 Kelsey Motoring Discussion Forum/Miscellaneous http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/cgi-bin/cmm/YaBB.pl?num=1371496470/1#1 Mon, 17 Jun 2013 22:10:37 GMT <b><a href="http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/cgi-bin/cmm/YaBB.pl?num=1371496470/0#0">used car seller wrote</a> on <b>Yesterday</b> at 20:14:30:</b><br /><div><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-PkWf9M3rUw" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-PkWf9M3rUw</a> </div><br /><br />seen it before but hes right <img src="http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/yabbfiles/cmm/Templates/Forum/default/smiley.gif" border="0" alt="Smiley" title="Smiley" /><br /> http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/cgi-bin/cmm/YaBB.pl?num=1371329962/3#3 Kelsey Motoring Discussion Forum/Mechanical http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/cgi-bin/cmm/YaBB.pl?num=1371329962/3#3 Mon, 17 Jun 2013 22:09:37 GMT <b><a href="http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/cgi-bin/cmm/YaBB.pl?num=1371329962/2#2">kevin0 wrote</a> on <b>Yesterday</b> at 21:15:08:</b><br /><div>thanks for the pm much appreciated. ive actually managed to make a tool out of a brake disc needs a little fettling though </div><br /><br />yes a very nice pm too<br />with hairy bits thank you very useful<br /> http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/cgi-bin/cmm/YaBB.pl?num=1370791978/3#3 Kelsey Motoring Discussion Forum/Gossip and Nonsense http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/cgi-bin/cmm/YaBB.pl?num=1370791978/3#3 Sun, 16 Jun 2013 22:07:51 GMT I go to a yard in Chobham, a real oldie wordy yard, I put some photos up a while back of a couple of Chevettes and a MK1 Cortina,  you can have a wander about and remove any parts that you want, any way a couple of months ago there was a series 2 xj6 Jag which must have just come in, it was complete and on the passenger seat was a service book and tons of history, I went back a couple of weeks later and it had been moved to a cordoned off part of the Yard and I hoped that they wert going to save it alas I went there on friday and the engine and gearbox had been removed <img src="http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/yabbfiles/cmm/Templates/Forum/default/cry.gif" border="0" alt="Cry" title="Cry" /> <img src="http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/yabbfiles/cmm/Templates/Forum/default/cry.gif" border="0" alt="Cry" title="Cry" /> <img src="http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/yabbfiles/cmm/Templates/Forum/default/cry.gif" border="0" alt="Cry" title="Cry" /> <img src="http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/yabbfiles/cmm/Templates/Forum/default/cry.gif" border="0" alt="Cry" title="Cry" /> http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/cgi-bin/cmm/YaBB.pl?num=1371371049/1#1 Kelsey Motoring Discussion Forum/Gossip and Nonsense http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/cgi-bin/cmm/YaBB.pl?num=1371371049/1#1 Sun, 16 Jun 2013 20:49:38 GMT <img src="http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/yabbfiles/cmm/Templates/Forum/default/grin.gif" border="0" alt="Grin" title="Grin" /> the questions are class aswell<br /> http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/cgi-bin/cmm/YaBB.pl?num=1370790609/8#8 Kelsey Motoring Discussion Forum/Miscellaneous http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/cgi-bin/cmm/YaBB.pl?num=1370790609/8#8 Sun, 16 Jun 2013 19:41:59 GMT oh crap, a week?  <img src="http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/yabbfiles/cmm/Templates/Forum/default/undecided.gif" border="0" alt="Undecided" title="Undecided" /><br /><br />I'm gonna need a wonga loan.....  <img src="http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/yabbfiles/cmm/Templates/Forum/default/cheesy.gif" border="0" alt="Cheesy" title="Cheesy" /> http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/cgi-bin/cmm/YaBB.pl?num=1370196971/7#7 Kelsey Motoring Discussion Forum/Gossip and Nonsense http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/cgi-bin/cmm/YaBB.pl?num=1370196971/7#7 Sun, 16 Jun 2013 19:13:51 GMT Right beside that was a clip titled crushed nuts!  <img src="http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/yabbfiles/cmm/Templates/Forum/default/shocked.gif" border="0" alt="Shocked" title="Shocked" /> <img src="http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/yabbfiles/cmm/Templates/Forum/default/shocked.gif" border="0" alt="Shocked" title="Shocked" /><br /><br /> <img src="http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/yabbfiles/cmm/Templates/Forum/default/grin.gif" border="0" alt="Grin" title="Grin" /> http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/cgi-bin/cmm/YaBB.pl?num=1370957112/8#8 Kelsey Motoring Discussion Forum/Mechanical http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/cgi-bin/cmm/YaBB.pl?num=1370957112/8#8 Sun, 16 Jun 2013 19:01:53 GMT The Mrs Corsa had a similar problem but a different fault code.

 I have no paperwork with the van so no indication of what has been fitted.<br /><br />It is a plain box with a hand written number on the top.<br /><br />Will try and get a picture.<br /><br />Anyone come across anything similar?
