Theirs no doubt that brakes are stuck on. I just have to take my foot of the gas and the brakes to a stop. I,l try and determine if one or both brakes is sticking tomorrow.

Hard to say for sure if there is a few mm or not, the pedal goes really rock hard!

Burnerman yes 20 minutes of normal driving. I haven't yet determined for sure if both sides or just one are sticking, however the car doesn't seem to be pulling over to either side. What's the chances of both hoses being bad? I guess to check the hoses I just need to stop and have a look/feel...

Hi, Got a problem with the brakes on my 2000 Nissan terrano II After around 15 to 20 minutes the brake pedal starts to go hard and the front brakes begin to stick on, gently at first but then very hard. Since the problem first happened I have replaced both front callipers (...

No the flow and return are at the left hand side which cannot be seen in the photo. Each has an isolation valve which I was able to close. I'll try and posts picture of the overall schematic later. Cheers

Yeh adjusted everything as per the design drawings but like I say because some are clogged up with debris I don't think they can be trusted. New ones coming tomorrow. Cheers

Oh yeh forgot to mention all loops were individually flushed again. It looks like all of the debris is out now. Cheers

Taxes, again thanks for your very helpful response. Okay so i removed all of the flow indicators but unfortunately i was unable to get into the glass part to clean around the spring. As you can see from the below picture they are still very dirty. After cleaning as much as i could i...

Taxes, first of all thanks for your concise reply, it is much apprecaited. Out of 8 loops down stairs all apart from two were heating. Following my flushing a different two did not heat leading me to believe we have a variable in the system which can only be junk. Yes the flow meters are...

Hi, An old thread i know but it may hold some relevance to a problem i,m trying to sort for a friend. I installed my own NU-HEAT UFH system a couple of years ago and have had no issues at all. My friend just had the same system installed by a "profesional" and is experiencing eratic...

Hi, i need a house re-pointing. Any fellas on here local to Tyne and Wear and interested in giving me a quote? Cheers

Thanks again to all the brilliant advice from the majority of sensible posters on here. Joe - FYI i will be talking to the builder when i get home, unfortunately at the moment i am on the other side of the world! Just had a look at those Redland Cambrian Slates and they look the business...

Yes that's what i thought to be honest re building control. I realized they were a waste of time during the build when the only thing they seemed interested in was ultra deep foundations!!! Apart from that they didn't seem to give a flying F%$# Anyway he came and to his credit attempted to...

Well the Mrs had the builder round, thought it best if she did it while i was away otherwise it would have ended up in a shouting match. :evil: Anyway he was not responsive at all with regards the roof. He spotted some pointing under the upstairs window which he thinks is the cause of the...

Thanks for that Freddy. Now for the next big question, whats the chances of getting those tiles off without breaking them? :? If it is possible is their a trick to doing it? Thanks again freddy

Thanks for that Scottish Slater, although the look we were after was a "slate affect" I've just been looking at the specs for my tile and it states a 5'' headlap at 17.5 degrees. What will be required to achieve this? Cheers

Sounds expensive :cry: Surely changing the pitch is a bit excessive? What tile would you recommend? Thanks for your comments

Okay found the tile. http://www.forticrete.co.uk/products/141/hardrow-solos.html The main reason this tile was chosen was its suitability for 17.5 degrees. Thanks again for all the comments, keep them coming :wink:

SRE thanks for your comments, "double lat slates laid with a single lap" can you elaborate please and offer your thoughts on the correct way to fix it? Yes the flashing is at a side abutment to a wall, i don't think their is a secret gutter or soaker under it. It looks fairly neat however if...

Well the leak is bizarre the only explanation i could come up with is that it is getting under the flashing. The flashing is below where i am standing to take the picture. What are the long term affects of water on the felt though? Am i right in saying it is not really designed to get wet and...
