    The rear brakes are Drums... :) When I refer to Cylinders I refer to the wheel cylinders in the drums at the rear, when I refer to calipers I refer to the Discs and pistons at the front :) I am very young though, thank you for noticing!

    I get the feeling you may not be old enough to have gone through the stage of trying to bleed the rear brakes on an old style Mini where the wheel cylinders were often fitted like that. I love the way you call cylinders in disc brake calipers...

    The wheel cylinders needed doing as before the pedal was spongy I only installed the calipers wrong after painting them, not my proudest moment... :p

    Follow the wires to the other end and see what they should attach to on the steering wheel. Edit: They are purple with a black trace.

    Can you not just do it yourself with rattle cans? It cannot be very big.

    Just been out and cleaned her from top to bottom, including a wax. Ended up furious at myself. I don't usually get steps out to clean the roof, as I can park next to a raised bit and reach all areas. Today I got the steps out. At some point I...

    Looks like something has been short circuited. Wonder what? Strikes me it can only be the controls for the stereo, the airbag, or the horn!

    On a lot of more modern cars the exterior lock is only on the passengr side as for LHD that is the driver's side! W's Citroen is just the same, as is the bonnet lock which can only be actione by opening the passenger side door. :rolleyes:

    Its probably a calculated sum from the PO driving habits. Maybe they used the go pedal like an on/off switch or only drove to the school/shop a few miles? If the above is the case than take it for a good run at speed and make sure the DPF is...

    The range changes all the time according to how you have been driving recently. Yessdi I went on a 3 hours drive in the wife's car, the range changed from 220 kms to 310 as I was driving most of the time in 5th gear. Previously it had only been...

    Hi all. Just upgraded from my trusty 2010 Freelander 2 to a Disco Sport, mainly as it has the same engine. Question - when I used to fill the tank of the FL, it would say a range of around 380-400 miles, but when I do the same for the DS, it only...
