Got new headlights for my Milleniun Falcon mate. Got em off some sketchy kid on Tattooine and his boss was some sort of flying rat! Anyway, can't stop, off to play cards with Lando.
Merry Xmas Russ
@@scottwalker6792 thanks man, have a great 2025 😎
Did pretty much the same list (plus driveshafts) for a customer, last 2 days. Have to say it was a fair mission between dicking with the shaft boots & freeing off the stuck-fast torsion bar tensioners. The welding work was straightforwards but for me, replacing the inner tie-rods or more so persuading the new rubber boots into position was a right pita - access to the steering rack to get the seal on & over is rubbish.
@jamesward5721 feel your pain dude! Inner tie rods and wheel bearings are my nemesis!
When I flush a cooling system I use central heating system flush from screwfix, run it up to temp then dump, repeat 2 or 3 times 👍
What coolant did you put in the t4
@brynhope4816 none yet but will be G12. I need to drain again and clear the heater matrix too. I'll be getting that sorted over the next week 👍
@ hi bud g12 has been superseded by g12 evo the creepiest I found was from dark side developments and it comes premixed and genuine from vw (vag) I’ve noticed van temps are a lot lower in summer and warms up quicker in winter. Be careful it doesn’t freeze in the mean time has it will pop out the core plugs in the engine block and can crack the plastic parts in the coolant system. Love your channel 👍🏻 btw.
@@brynhope4816 thanks Bryn, appreciate the comments and support! 🤙 ..will get the coolant sorted real soon.
Needs some water lol unless its leaking lol
@andrewnewton5893 need to sell my kidneys to make it perfect 😂
@russ walker best way to clean the header tank is block the holes up. and use steradent tablets put 3/4 in and hot water leave it for a food few hours rinse out. works a treat.
@@jamesgriffiths3057 cheers James, I'll do that when I flush again soon and replace with coolant
@russwalker675 yeah cleans lots of stuff including false teeth lol !
@jamesgriffiths3057 🤣
That's how I uses to clean out classic Ford header tanks, sometimes add some bolts, seal it up and shake like your a cocktail bar tender 😂
@@Dirt-Diggler That's a decent idea, something to agitate it
Working on the van outdoirs in winter is a nightmare. Everything is already brittle after 25+ years. I hate to mention it, but if you have a wet floor liner, the chances are the windscreen is leaking. Are the seat bases rusty? That is usually another sign. Crankcase breather running up the plastic valve that sits on the cam cover. I did mine a couple of years ago. The rubber grommet that the pcv valve sits on atop the camshaft cover is also another source of leaks. Easy fix. I replace them every 3 years using the Elring ones.
@T4TipsGuides mentioned the screen in a previous video. It is leaking and I can see daylight though the bottom at the middle. It's on the list to replace the screen and I have the grommet to replace for the rocker cover breather valve too. Seem to find more things to remedy with every video I make 🙄
@@russwalker78You can always count on a T4 to give you plenty of content to film 😂
@@T4TipsGuides you are not wrong! It definitely a gift lol
As I get older I get more brittle in the cold as well 😂😂
@@Dirt-Diggler 😆 I can relate to that!
nothing like a coolant flush, she'll thank you for that, great vid
@LordFlashheart1 absolutely! I need to do another flush and definitely get the heater matrix flushed too. Work in progress I guess 👍
@@russwalker78 I’ve never done a matrix flush, will you be filming that? So you flush it through backwards!?
@@LordFlashheart1 I guess 😂 some reading and investigating before!
@ same ha
Looking tidy mate
Cheeky little one
Cracking work again Russ
Looking forward to this one
Proper good clean up. Gonna miss them stickers on the green T4 mate
Cracking work again, Russ. Great vid
Like a boss. Great work again mate
Good effort Russ
Nice work mate.
Jeez tou certainly crack on, you've done the jobs in a few weeks that ive needed done for a year 😂
@Gary002 😂 Rome wasn't built in a day, you got time! It's my daily work van mate so needs to be ready to go with minimal down time.
Great work, did you prime and paint over the stone chip?
@LordFlashheart1 primed, then seam sealer then stone chip. No need to prime the Red Stripe Sealer before stone chip after reading the can 👍
Top Job 💪😁
@DavidCarrington-jr7ur thanks David, appreciate it.
I purchased four Febi fuel filters. After an issue fitting the valve to the first filter I returned the rest. Never had an issue with Bosch fuel filters. Febi parts are not as good as they used to be. I'm disappointed to see this is still a problem over 12 months after I raised the issue with the motor factor. I actually asked them to make their Febi Bilstein rep aware of the problem. It's really annoying to think how many people have been inconvenienced by this fault that should have been rectified by now.
@T4TipsGuides thanks! It'll be Bosch for all my service filters from now on. Top video you made on it too! 💪
The radiator lifts vertically out onto the bumper in service mode.
@gordonsmith9476 😎 yes and really opens up the front to work on
Great work and video 🙂
Great update, I have the welding to attend to also at some point, but wheel bearings and rear brake/calipers needs attention first 🙈
I've posted this on a T4 forums to get the views it should be getting! Great in depth help for new owners !
@@Gary002 thanks Gary, appreciate your support 🙌
Why do people feel it necessary to play annoying music...
Sorry I'm no help with BMW's, but I'll be doing my wings soon also! Already following your video done the clutch support, thank you (currently needing a cold start cable and they are RARE) 😭
@Gary002 thanks Gary and good luck with your hunt. Heritage parts centre night have one and also worth looking at brickwerks or just kampers too 👍
I've tried them all, all out of stock 😭, also regarding the bmw does it have the old headlight control box built into the light ? Or is it a model prior to that?
@Gary002 it's the standard pre lci model so is just a normal headlamp. There is a Light control module FRM I believe that could be a reason for it not working. Regarding your cable, it might be worth speaking to Cali Campers in New Milton. James might have a good used one in stock.
It looks so much better even after the first wash. I got a T3 Syncro which was covered in dust, mud, & grease. It took a month to clean it all plus all the driveline, brakes etc.
@@stephenrogers9664 have you got an insta account?
impressive, although I've seen 4 individual keys before lol
@@LordFlashheart1 😂 yep, my old T4 had 4 keys before I swapped them out when I sold it. I'm more than comfortable with just the 2 keys 😂
@@russwalker78 haha, it's like lucky dip when using them
I've seen folk use the blanked hole for a reverse camera location (which I'm tempted to do to)
@Gary002 love that idea 😎 will have a look myself. Cheers
Seriously thank you for the likes, subs comments and views. Appreciate the support! Let's get the next one filmed 🤙
Enjoy these videos mate, where did you get your parts from? Im after the brake hoses but so many on fleabay i necer know which to get !
@Gary002 thanks buddy, I got them from autodoc. Febi if I remember right. I like to get decent names where I can 🤙 Delivery is slower but always works out. Haven't had to send anything back before.
why would you delete the rear wiper ? id defo keep it .
I won't have windows to look out of, so deleted to clean the look of the rear 👍
Was it just the no nonsense degreaser ? Ive also got an indian blue T4 so will be enjoying watching your progress, cheers
@Gary002 cheers Gary cheers for the sub! I used Engine Gunk degreaser. Worked well 👍
Hi, where are you based in Southampton please, would like to po down & have a look what you got !
@@saracampbell3413 thanks Sara but I've now sold it. 1st person viewed and bought 😎 Best wishes with your searching!
That is a sweet bus. Well done 👍
Normally, the relays in the modules failing
Great choice!
I would have had that but I need to get a pallet of bricks in, I've got a bed at home,
2 far for me😞😞
@cryengine62 the right one is never too far
Camper van market seems to be slowing up like the rest of the car industry… getting to end of summer season too
Awesome vid. So glad that you showed us how to take the door panel and trims off. Inspired me to buy a trim removal kit, lol. I have a 2005 VW lt35 lwb campervan. I just got it a few weeks ago. It is also loud when driving. Though not as loud as my 1996 T4 that I am fixing to sell soon. Thanks again, like the new panel van that you just bought looks awesome. I went and got a 5 litres of Gunk engine degresser probably follow your example. Thanks again can't wait to find more of your vids...Ray
Appreciate the words Ray, next upload will hopefully be soon and will feature both the LT and T4 again. Thanks for the support.
did it go?
Unfortunately it didn't. I shall persevere on Facebook Marketplace, sale pages and also pop it on Gumtree I think.
Auction finishes Sunday, hoping it goes as badly need the space dudes 🤙
What's mods or hacks have you done to your T4? Always open to ideas 🤙
