Is that the gasket from the turbo to the downpipe? Sorry for ignorance, I'm at the maintenance stage of competence where I changed the wiper park switch tonight and actually whooped as I sat in the car and tested it and it worked haha :D I'm tempted with this kit but I must say I'm in need of...

Excellent advice, I'm off to do have a look at that :) thank you

Fortunately my 90 is an actual "90" as opposed to a Defender as it's from 1988 so I can bin the cat..lord knows why the previous owner installed it when they swapped a 300 in... (?) :) Phew!

Sorry just noticed I copied the disco one, they do one for the defender also but one of the things I noticed is that this particular advertiser is that they say on the ad that it fits any 300tdi...which I don't think is possible.. Could anyone comment on the suitability of this part please...

Hi guys :) My back box is fubar so I was scanning for replacements and then I came across this: Land Rover Discovery 300 Tdi Complete Sports Exhaust System with De-Cat Downpipe | eBay For an extra £40 or so it seems I can get a full system, I was thinking about binning the cat and mid...

I bought a pair of 100w bulbs from a parts co on eBay recently, huge improvement.. and only £5 inc postage :) ..will have to swap them out for the MOT though so I am told..10 minute job :)

after my 90 was nicked and recovered (woop!) I invested in the holy X-Engineering trinity of barrel lock, gear lock and pedal lock. after a few goes the gear lock is a doddle, the pedal lock is very simple too but is a bit of a faff..but then again I defy anyone to be able to break it without...

Got it :) well, my mechanical endeavours have been brought to an abrupt pause as I broke a rachet trying to undo the near side clamp... :( tomorrow I will buy a replacement, it wasn't even a cheapo one!

I know I'm a numpty before anyone says...but basically if I adjust the bar connecting the ball joints to 924mm then it should toe out as it's supposed to? (ie 2degrees)? :hurriesofftomeasurethem:

Yes... I see that now ;) These ones: Center 10" pipe wrench Anyway, I also purchased today a "lift kit" from hellfrauds which includes a handy wee trolley slider thing so I'm going back underneath the LR in a mo rain notwithstanding :)

Yeah....?

Wth? I wrote a fairly long response here last night and it's not appeared....

I bought two Stillsons yesterday from the plumb center (one from Gateshead one from Scotswood road as they only stock one per store....) and tried them this morning and they were ****e. Just as well they were 4 quid each... Also, all I succeeded in doing today was rotating the track rod in...

Between Washington & Gateshead :) are you local too? :) I have tried to sort it this morning, everything greased and so on, pliers just not up to it though (or maybe I am weak) had to google what Stillsons are as my knowledge really is basic, but I've just put 2 aside at a plumbers merchants...

Fantastic response guys! I was particularly wondering about those clamps and how to do it - twisting, I see! I will get on to it in the morning as after I had my swivel joints changed (£500 inc fitting from a decent Landy garage) my tracking went all to hell, understandably and frankly has...

Hi guys, I'm a novice home mechanic and have researched how to measure and adjust the tracking, 2 degrees toe out etc..but inspection of the only bit I can see to adjust has not given me a clue how to actually adjust it or even what way I should be twisting said item! Sorry for completely crap...

Dammit. Only just joined tonight, would definitely have had these! Hey ho :) glad you got rid :)
