Saw the Dr. Yes, it's gout. Meds prescribed and a lecture on lifestyle changes. NO Alcohol. No red meat or offal. Don't eat offal, never have. Alcohol is reduced by 2/3 already. I'm not giving up my Steak's.

Did a little video for you on mine draining water, sorry about the wind noise. Maybe a daft question but was the panel already missing from the side of your dash or is there water behind it? I don't think it's the scuttle panel that's causing...

And still hasn't got enough in the "useful" category to flog his rusty tat 😁

For the two outer belts the shorter belt goes under the seat back and hooks or is bolted to the bracket (depends on your seat belts you have) just behind the seat back in the boot on the floor. The two short lap belts also are hooked or bolted to...

The wiring loom and new speedo cable have been delivered today! So guess what I am going to do the next days! With some luck, I might even get her through TÜV / MOT by months end before our summer vacation! Wish me luck!

The rear seats have brackets that bolt through the boot floor to the chassis for the seatbelts.

Will it start if you do the purge cycle first? If so it may well be air in the fuel system. Usual suspects are bleed valve in fuel filter housing or injector seals. Griff

Hi everyone, I've recently bought a 2010 Discovery 4 second hand as my first step into Landrover ownership. Absolutely love it but one small issue, the handle on the lower glove box has snapped off and I need to replace the lower box. Been told...

If it's draining slowly, it ain't right. Put some water in there, hit it with the airline, then wipe your face and change your shirt etc. as you will be wearing a fair bit of muck! Ask me how I know... Or cover over it a bit with a cloth, you...

When I say buckles I mean receivers.

Having managed to get a set of Discovery 1 rear (2nd row) seats can anyone tell me whether the buckles for the outer 2 seats are on stalks or belts and does anyone have any?

My car is 23 years old so I would not get any service from Land Rover so I do not really understand this line of questioning. I do not think Toyota would give you a new chassis on a 23 year old Land Cruiser. I used to have a Toyota Land Cruiser...

A busy morning has been had. Visited sis-in-law to move her old washing machine down the drive for road side collection by the cooncil tomorrow. Then a fuel stop, and on to scroofix and wix for stuff for a plumbing job at dottir's on Thursday...

Hi everyone, the last couple of days I've had a little issue, the old girl has gone from starting straight away just on the key i mean just a flick of the key to struggling like she has a missfire. Once she's running she seems fine no loss of...

hi had similar issues as wife was using the car started with shaking steering wheel here and there later breaks just got 300 Celsius the front burning not all the time but on daily basis and one or the other side or both and pedal getting solid...

Fixed. 🤣 🤣

What do you think of Toyota giving away thousands of galvanized chassis, wouldnt get that service from LR.

I tried the scuttle panel and there is a load of gunk around the base of the wiper. Water is pooling there but does drain out under the footwell when I poured a cup of water in -slowly mind. Perhaps the torrential rain is causing it. I’ll start...

Hi again.. new development this morning! Message on dash saying “reduced engine performance” Booked into garage next week but any ideas before l go, want to at least look like l know what I’m thinking it might be…

W has just messaged me after her consulatation at the orspicle. It looks like the doctors will be on strike right across the time when she is supposed to be having her op. And they also want her to stay in a while after it to make sure it will...

ahh ok, then i got my story straight. For compression i dont really need it rn. Running enough. Just that darn knock.... Heres what i THINK is a good plan (advice if it aint) ;) The manual states a piston bore clearance of .063 mm with piston...

Kev ignored his slice ov walnut eye put out ferrim last nite. Just started raining. Looks like we is avvin over 10mm at the weekend. Eye has purra hose pipe on me water butts and emptied 200L onto each ov me two trees that are looking unhappy...

OK so I should move all the wires over one position counter clockwise...

The local SKF distributor is sending me a seal that should be suitable, arriving next week, so thank you for your knowledge on this subject.

Because I will have a spare (replaced with galv) chassis and rear body. What else am I supposed to do with them? Plus there is a big “because I can” factor. That is the sort of thing I am looking to do although I think I will stop at the...

Hi all, Posting to see if anyone is selling interior dashboard trim, particularly the trim that sits either side of the steering column. I'm looking for the trim finish in the attached picture. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Harry

How do! Three weeks later & not much done. Been waiting on a workbench to attach a vice properly which took the best part of two weeks while I also accidentally ordered just one metal advance gasket which meant waiting another week. I've got...
