Hi John A quick look through the 'tinternet' and come up with this list (which looks to me to be quite definitive) My money is on item number 3 and can easily be checked by getting your garage to check the oxygen levels from the exhaust (e.g. and exhaust leak will produce a high O2 level on exhaust emissions.....it should be near to zero). If the exhaust is leaking then this will throw an imbalance on the cat threshold (pre and post levels). This would indicate a leak in the primary part of the exhaust (more than likely a joint before or after the cat - where the pipes/manifold meet the cats) What repairs can fix the P0420 code? Replace muffler or repair leaks in the muffler. Replace exhaust manifold or repair leaks in the exhaust manifold. Replace exhaust pipe or repair exhaust pipe leaks. Replace catalytic converter (most common) Replace engine coolant temperature sensor. Replace front or rear oxygen sensor.

Can recommend The Gearbox Specialist in Bournemouth as used them in the past and good workmanship

Hi Chris...you are more than welcome to attend, just need a time and place to meet up now

You're more than welcome (and your neighbour as well) .... we are soon approaching making a decision on when to meet as there seems to be a fair few on here now.....Anyone got a preference on date and place?

Another one for the gathering.....we're getting there now! That would be a good trip for you Simon as some great driving roads en-route to the Forest

Sounds like a plan is hatching Mark, as long as it involves a beer at some point in the proceedings 🙂 I think as you say the New Forest is an ideal place as got plenty of good roads to drive through there and also there aren't any roadworks which seem to currently be plaguing the BCP road network. I am in Ringwood area so anywhere in the New Forest area is good for me.....anyone else have any preferences, good pubs, etc?

Moved this post to a new section in the forums especially for members who wish to meet up within the South Coast areas. Feel free to make arrangements within the group for any local meetings you wish to set up or attend and we will help to promote these through the membership.

Hi Mark Lets see how many more we can get to start a local meeting or just go for it with a few of us and see if it increases over time? Any suggestions of where and when you suit and go from there? Regards, Trevor

Oh wow! Kawasaki triple, very rare bike nowadays. You should get yourself another bike Julie, such fun but also a lot safer when you get older (just tend to go a lot slower 🙂

Although I do try to avoid having to crawl under any cars nowadays, takes me too long to get up from the floor 🙂

If you would like to start a local event then we would be more than happy to promote it so it hopefully becomes a regular local event.

Congratulations! feel free to pop up some pics of the XK8 Notice that you are in Dorset, we are currently trying to put together a local meeting in the Dorset area so feel free to join us

We sent one out to you a couple of days ago so you should be receiving it shortly

Can't possibly comment about loud exhausts as I ride a Harley 🙂 Apologies to any members who live near me

Not seen anything like this before but imagine it uses a non-slip surface to glide under a car or slide heavy items over. Quite a clever idea but not seen anything over here (imagine it is an American product with the rear of the Camaro in the photo)

Hi Stephen....welcome to the Club Have you tried any other pumps at different stations, just in case it is a high-pressure issue, some other pumps maybe less aggressive in how the fuel comes out?

Hi Carl.....welcome to the Club Congrats on the decision to acquire an F-Pace, curious as to what your weekend toy is though? Good to have you onboard!

What a fantastic car and plenty of provenance with it, especially the bullet hole which is definitely worth keeping there as a talking point. I see the vehicle weight is in excess of 3 tonne, tyre pressures to match it as well 🙂 Thanks for sharing with us such a great car!

Hi Jason....welcome to the Club I would remove the engine from below complete with the transmission and subframe if working without lifting equipment.

Sounds like a regular local meeting could be forming.
