Looking to fit a new camshaft for something a bit warmer such as an H180 and some tubular manifolds to my 96 3.9 Disco! Done a bit of reading, looks and sounds relatively easy to do, are there any pitfalls/things etc I need to be aware of? Thanks Errol

My speedo on the D2 has just stopped working!! No warning lights or anything on the dash to suggest a problem! Ive read that it is an electronic not cable speedo and the transducer is on the side of the transfer box, however there is also a suggestion that the system takes it road speed from...

Thanks chaps, will keepitin mind!

Got to work this morning all fine on the run in but as I was pulling up to the traffic lights, LPG beeped and switched off and temp gauge needle went from normal (in the middle) to the red vey quickly, checked coolant level fine, LPG working fine! Its a D2 4.0 V8, 95,000 on clock with no other...

excellent. thanks for your help. I'll give it a whirl!

ok thanks! IIRC I didnt take the crank pulley off to check the timing marks, this potentially means that the cams will be in the correct position but not the crank. So put back together, move the crank to correct position (assuming its not already there), set cams to correct postion, refit...

i think so, just trying to remember after all the work at the weekend? If not then if it is set up according to the manual will this affect the timing as a result of the crank not being in the correct position?

Evening, Just in the process of fitting a new cylinder head to the FL 2001MY following HGF. I've stripped the head from the engine, set the timing marks per the manual. 1. Took the cam sprockets off and the pegs are not lined up in the postions as shown in the manual 8 and 4 o'clock...

Hi all, The ever reliable (?) 1.8 that we have has been absolutely fine, it does have a multi layered head gasket........until today! Lots of bubbling water from the expansion tank, cant see any leaks around the cylinder head, however the temp gauge does not appear to move from the middle...

I have a 96 Disco ES. Is the front screen using a complete one piece seal or is it bonded ? Hopefully you can help so that I can buy the correct parts to stop an ongoing leak into the footwells. Tks :D

Can anyone help with the correct size door speaker and rear panel speaker for my 3dr? Tks

Mid-Wales!

Its an ES model, afaik these always had alloys! Bit peeved given that it is unusable at the moment, good idea about the offset!

Its not had new discs and pads in my ownership before, and not sure about the wheels, believed to be all original!!

Its as if the pads are too thick as they determine the position of the caliper on the guide pins in relation to piston on the back of the inboard pad. I've had the vernier gauge, inside/outside calipers, run out gauges all sorts to no avail! I'm not going to take it to a garage tho1

It was my fence panel.................!

Hi all, APologies for the lack of communication, I've been scratching my head about this, queried Land Rover and a couple of specialists and as far as they can see there shouldnt be a problem. TO recap, its a 2001 Freelander 1A....chassis, vented discs, original 16" wheels afaik, it was like...

Would love to get the pics of the phone, but it doesnt talk to my XP laptop, (raises eyebrows!!)

I removed vented discs and pads, bought with them on, its a 2001 y, will check the VIN, but got the new stuff from local factor (who is normally very good) and quoted reg no to him which should show the correct gear! I've just been out and checked everything again!! Still the same, might be a...

Just to clarify, (read my original post) the disc moves ok with pads in position but when put wheel on and tighten up boltsthe lower corner of the caliper rubs on inside of wheel and cant move it..... New pads dont appear to be handed, all seem to be same shape and profile, Haynes suggests...
