Hi, First post in this section. I need to replace a kaput alternator on a 1.8 non aircon freelander 2001 Yreg and wondered if all the cheep used ones on ebay from rover 25's and 75's fit straight on or if the mounts or pully are different or not. Seen some used but working for £20ish delivered...

Ive just bought a set of paddock solid steering rods PM023 | Heavy Duty Steering Rods for Discovery 2 - with 4 ball joints and have Raved, searched the forum and googled but cant find the measurements to have the steering rods set about right when fitting them. When I had my disco 1 there were...

Hi, I bought a 99 td5 auto disco 2 last Friday and shortly after realised the HDC, TC and ABS light didnt light up on ignition to self test... should have realised before purchacing... oh dear. Checked all the fuses relays etc which are fine so today I removed the dash and rather than bunging up...

I have recently aquired a +2" lift kit with shocks springs bushes etc. After getting it all home and standing the springs on the floor next to each other I noticed that 2 of the springs are slightly shorter than the other 2. The kit is pre used with no instructions and I dont know if its longer...

Shot in the dark here but has anyone got any idea what insurance company (If any) would take on insuring a Bowler Wildcat? I can just imagin when speeking to the assistant at Direct Line.... "Does the vehicle have any modifications sir? mmmmmmm well yes.... a few" And this isn't just for the...

Im currently working my way through changing all the oil in my Landy and have found that some monkey has swung off the spanner when tightening the gearbox drain plug. I have a 32mm ring spanner and have tryed shocking it but am worried it will strip the thread out the hole. Any ideas cos for the...

I have a 1995 M reg 2.5 300 tdi disco and the only mods are a "decat" (removerd particulate filter) and an egr blanking plate. Initial pull away is pitiful but on the move dont seem too bad (Still not great) I know its a landy and not a sports car but early this morning I was on an empty M1 and...

As you can probably tell from the title the boot mechanism has completly craped out on me. I got the back seats folded down and laughed a lot when my dogs limboed under the dog guard but cant open the boot with the outside or inside handle even with the locking knob pulled up. The trim panel has...

Just had a mobile aircon chap out who has pressure tested, vacumed and then filled my air con system and its that cold it made my sweaty head hurt while I was sat on the drive enjoying it. Spoke to him about those air con top up cans from Halfords and he said its a complete waste of time. The...

As I was towing the caravan on holiday a couple of weeks ago there was a faint smell of diesel shortly after setting off and after a peek under the bonnet there was diesel down the side of the head and engine. I carryed on to our destination and upon arriving I had a poke around and found that...

Reet then. Ma 300tdi's power steering res looks like its been toped up with strawberry milk so im thinking its as old as the Landy. How do you drain the lot before refilling it? I know you can open the bleed nipple but I wasn't convinced that I could run the engine then crank the bleed nipple...

My Disco is being used to pull the old caravan about 200 miles tommorow so im a bit hesitant to remove the studs into the exhaust manifold incase they snap. Is there any reason why a blanking plate cant be installed between the egr and the flexi pipe to the intercooler pipe and then just remove...

I have fitted a new cambelt kit today and now the engine wont start. It drove to the spot that it is still sat in and was running fine up until removal. It turns over but wont fire and it has a cloud of grey/white smoke coming out the exhaust. The only thing I can think of is that when I was...
