    Hi all, I know this has been done to death in other threads, but...... My ace fluid needs filling, I went to a local car spares place to buy some but had forgotten me manual to refer to.

    Hi guys, This area is fairly local to me, (based in Rowley), so would be keen to tag along at some point. I've done quite a few of the lanes in the area, one to give a wide berth though is in Turley Green, (OS explorer map 218 (kidderminster and wyre forest, grid ref 7615 8550), lane heads...

    Gps and mem map

    Disco TD5 With ACE

    I've been told that Dexron atf is synthetc and the atf LR specify is mineral based. If this is correct then you'd be mad to use Dexron, speshly as a top up. I recall Dexron atf is vegetable oil based and have seen people flushing auto box's with sunflower oil. Cheaper + residue will mix with atf...

    Fitting winch & bumper

    Hi all, Well, me crunched up Disco is slowly gettin sorted bit by bit as and when I get time. I need to draw on the wisdom of the masses before fitting the winch and front bumper though. Is it a straight forward procedure fitting the winch / bumper / steering guard (all built to fit Disco' 2) or...

    Buyin back me fooked Disco'

    8.2K was the bottom book price for mine, that's apparantly what most insurwanks companys offer for write orfs. Don't want any more snow just yet, at least until I get me disco' sorted, or get another landy. I'm stuck driving around in a beemer 330ci until then....they just follow gravity in...

    Yeah, it is the one in the pic'. I don't plan on pumping the whole 6K into it, I'm hoping to get most of it sorted with used parts.

    Buyin back me fooked Disco'

    Right, I bin offered 8.2K from the insurance company for me Disco' wot me brother pranged. The best price they've given for a buy back is 2.2K and they're gonna waive the 200 squid excess, which leaves me with 6K to fix it up etc.... I'm expecting to be able to get it sorted with that, but I'm...

    His mate is a right lard arse, plus the disco had spun an was goin backads when it hit the concrete block. The seats are designed to deform so that you don't. The mot was up yesterday, so I took it down to the guy I bin using for years. It failed, but the guy said it'd pass with a new front ns...

    I can't see em paying out more than 5k....So after buyin it back, do you reckon I can get it sorted with the remainder? I nearly thumped his skull bone for him when he showed me what he'd done. The big pain is, I still owe money on the thing.......
