    clutch noise

    Sometimes it nice and quite in neutral with the foot off the pedal. Some times its very very chattery. The gearbox sound and works perfectly when im moving. and there is no sound if the clutch is pressed in. Only in neutral with the clutch out.

    clutch noise

    They did have the landy for 9 days and two clutches!!! Yes the noise goes away as soon as you press the clutch in. They only showed me the clutch plate, that was scored around the prong type bits for a diameter of about 2 and half inch. I hate keeping my foot on the clutch at traffic lights...

    clutch noise

    They had the Landy for 9 days, they told me they couldnt get it into gear smoothly and had to change the new clutch with another new one because they had been sent the wrong one. The garage have looked after this landy for 10 years, and said its common for the fork to fail. They did show me...

    clutch noise

    I need some help! My clutch peddle went floppy whilst driving, I pulled over and pressed it again, it then went rock hard. Got it to my local garage who said it was the clutch fork arm. They replaced the arm, and replaced the clutch at the same time. £580 !!!!! I now get a chattering noise...

    OH YES, Mine did the same, the pressure built up so much that it split the header tank and water sprayed out of there like a fountain. Defo the head gasket, filled mine up with water, took the cap off the header tank and was able to drive it with the temp gague on the half way mark for 10 miles...

    LPG mot failure??

    No, not unless the cats are damaged. A cat can only reduce emissions not increase them. If the engime is running good then you should not need the help of the cats. There is a problem with the engine management. have you got a copy of the failed emmisions report. This will tell you whats really...

    What MPG can you realistically get from a Landy/Disco?

    94 300 tdi Disco with 158,000 on the clock. Ive just worked it out 300 miles at 95p per litre =42 litres = 32.47 mpg and my Disco thows out black smoke every time you set off from stand still and every time i put my foot down. Just think how good that would be if i got it fixed.
