I wouldn't exactly say it's utter madness to drive one without it, when everything that can be done has been done (without low level sensor) and she gets driven about 15 miles 6 days a week and a good run out on the 7th day, after I've let her warm up for 20 minutes or so..... If ain't broke, don't fix

I've seen the how to but I don't have ramp or axel stands to get to the bleed point on the underside that's why was asking if could do it without bleeding if clamped well

So it is pretty much safe to remove the pipes from tank and clamp them one by one so to speak as long as I clamp them quickly?

I have recently discovered a small crack in the expansion tank...... I have bought a new one but is it possible to change it without having to bleed the system if I clamp the pipes soon as I take them off?
Thanks

Very sorry for slow reply, I've been in hospital.
I have been told that to start with I could just try and loosen a little bit at gear stick and see if that helps and if not also do the back as well which I'd need to get someone to do which I have got lined up if needs be. Hopefully that will work as don't really want to be paying anything out if don't need to obviously.
Thanks for your reply, much appreciated

Very sorry for slow reply, I've been in hospital. I would take it back to the mechanic but he has done a runner, turns out a very dodgy bloke and has screwed over nearly 100 people which has only recently come to light.

Hi, I've searched forum and can't find an answer so I hope one of you great people can help.
One of my gear selector cables snapped so I have had both long and short cables replaced. Since then, the gear stick it pretty stiff now, as an example, I go to put it into 1st from neutral and the gear stick will not automatically spring back to neutral. Also, 3rd gear seems to be very slightly out of alignment, not directly up from neutral, it's slightly more right. Everything was perfectly fine before the cable snapped. Could this just be a case of the cables being too tight or something more serious? When the cable broke I was in 2nd and drove it back home which was roughly half a mile, by time I got back, there was a slight burning smell but nothing to overpowering.
I have drove it for several miles up and down duel carriage way, which wasn't exactly slow and I don't get any burning smell or any strange noises.
Any advice, greatly appreciated as I'm no mechanic (an actual mechanic did the cables)
Many thanks
Sean
