Can anyone give me any tips on stopping the softop from flapping around above 40mph? Thankyou

Hello gentlemen. Just purchased an '82 SWB Series 3 petrol. Unfortuneatly I'm really struggling to get her running correctly as she's now undriveable. I've replaced the distributor, ht leads, coil, plugs and the little metal vaccuum pipe with a silicone one. But now she will not run at all on...

Hello, I went for a drive this morning to discover that I have no indicators or hazards working? I the little indicators on the dash work, and are flashing in time, but the lights do not work. I have checked the fuses and flasher relays. Where do you recommend I investigate next? (worried it...

Hello chaps and chapettes. As my Disco 2 has given up, symptoms being erratic idle, loss of indicators and central locking. I've decided to dust of the 109" IIA and try and desperately get her on the road. I'm sort of halfway through tackling a bit of everything, brakes, cooling system...

Hello, Are new door lock barrels, ignition barrels and keys available? Can't seem to find them anywhere on the web.

Hello. For a while my drivers door actuator has been broken, so it won't lock on the key. I have to lock all the other doors on the key and then this one manually. The other week I locked the vehicle, went to unlock all the other doors, and the key fob didn't work. So I manually unlocked the...

Anyone know if it's possible to still get the traditional looking roof bars with the hoops that grip onto the gutter? I've look everywhere for them. Many thanks.

Anyone got one of these and are they any good? And what exactly is the difference between the standard truck cab and extended truck cab versions? Thankyou :)

Hello, I'm in the process of restoring my 109 2a on a budget. I fancy putting a canvas truck cab on it, so the land rover will actually fit in my garage. It currently has a hardtop on it with 2 windows on each side, windows in the top curve, vents hatches in the roof, and a second layer...

From searches, this subject seems to have been covered many times. There seems to be four types, the Ashcroft or genuine Land Rover Cable kits, we are very costly. An air operated solenoid kit. (I've a coiled Disco) A nice DIY solution which utilises a 3/8" socket extension. Or there...

Is there any way in which I can alter the speedo reading if I were to fit larger wheels and tyres? I have seen the speedo correction kit, but that looks like a pain in the ass to fit. Thanks

I've just bought a TD5 Disco, albeit with very high milage. There's a few leaks and common issues like keys and the drivers door not unlocking on the central locking, but apart from that and the smell of dog, she's a good bus. Now is was wondering if any company sold a full LED lighting...

So I go to remove the first exhaust pipe from the manifold on my series 2a petrol. And you can guess what happened, every single one sheared off. Are there special studs I can replace them with that won't anneal and soften like the old mild steel 8.8's?

Hello, I've been asked to change the head gasket on my friends 19J engine. Is this a pig to do? I've done engine rebuilds before, but only on pushrod engines, so i've only touched a timing belt once. The things I desperately need to know are how to lock the timing and where, on the head...

Has anyone done this in recent years? Disco's and 110's seem to have been the weapon of choice for the past 2 decades. Apart fro sacrificing comfort, fuel economy, reliability and speed, i'm sure it'd be great to re live that golden age of expeditions off road. Has anyone tried it?

Getting my 109 back on the road on a budget. What is the cheapest tyre available in this size? I'm not worried whether it's Chinese or the tread pattern for that matter. The only cheap ones I can find seem to be around 70 odd pounds and are tractor implement tyres. "Not suitable for highway...

Is there a knack to refitting now shoes with new springs? I'm finding this near impossible!

Any idea what this model of roof was called? Thanks

Hello, It's my first post on here for a while since getting rid of my 2a, should be getting hold of a series 3 soon. I've heard of a few people gas flowing the head on a 2.25 petrol, will this give me any improvement on power/mpg? And could anybody give me an idea of the original...

Im due to be on the road within the next few months, and apart from my CB radio that I've installed in my land rover, I find myself getting fed up with the constant "GNEEEEEEEEEEERRRRR" of the 2.25 petrol. I dont want to fit a CD player, DAB or anything fancy. All I want is a simple FM radio...
