Anyone on here had success with carrying out a window regulator re-thread/re-string. I've had to replace the central locking actuator on the drivers door and on reinstalling the regulator managed somehow to de-thread the regulator. Spent the last hour, of what should be a minor job, trying to...

Just wondering ... if a D4 does NOT have SatNav installed as an option, what is involved in fitting it? Is it simply a matter of installing a SatNav equipped head (as available on eBay) in place of the existing unit ... or is it a bit more complex than that? For example .. could a 2014 head unit...

just wanting to know if it's possible to adjust the seats 'manually' should the electrics fail? thanks.

I heard somewhere someone suggested using one side of a pair of multigrips. undo the bolt holding both sides together and use the curved side to carefully lift them out. apparently worked well

thanks fery.... looks interesting. might pick up a couple of bottles for future use.

can anyone tell me what is the typical pressure or max pressure I can use to check 2001 Disco 2 TD5 auto cooler. I suspect there may be a fine hairline crack and can't get enough uuumph blowing into it (human uumph only a couple of psi )

sounds a bit like an internally failed vacuum unit (diaphram/spring or both)

thanks james, I'll give it a go and see what happens.... can only be better than it currently is ... I think :-) My main concern would be in lining up the shaft again during reinstallation if the housing is worn (oval shaped)... I've heard of a few people having this problem

which will mean machining and fitting a new sleeve in the probable oval shaped housing :-(

sorry James ... I should have said the top left input shaft oil seal.

I need to replace the top front seal in the transfer case of my 2001 TD5 Auto Disco. This is a job I have been putting off for some time now, but I really just need to get it sorted. My understanding is that I need to remove the transfer case to do this, however, I recently found a mention in a...

Slightly different tyre but... I run my 245/75 R16 Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac's (rated at a max pressure of 80psi) at between 50 and 60psi without any problems. After towing my 3t caravan around Australia for the last couple of years on the blacktop and rugged dirt roads/tracks the tyres have...

it's turned on... but is it connected to the power ?:eek:

interesting suggestion re: temp sender. do you think it would make that big a difference? ... ie. pretty much same fuel consumption when towing (2500kg caravan) or not. Hard to see why I consume around 16L/100km when towing (which I think would be a reasonable figure) and when disconnected and...
