i bought pads and discs on ebay (from Island 4x4 i think). i actually misread the advert and thought the pads and the discs were mintex. However, it was my mistake as the pads are mintex, the discs are britpart. I've had no problems with the pads or discs. i think it was £103 for front and...

I've got the HK system and its fantastic. Perhaps, Paddy1 you should 'muck yer lugs oot'

i use an fm transmitter called a DLO transpod. it plugs into the fag lighter and charges the ipod. you can store 4 different fm frequencies in case you get interference from local radio. DLO | TransPod

if its just a light fog, mine seems to clear in about 2 minutes. this is using the 'prog' button on the heater controls which also diverts full air blast to the screen.

some of the P38's come loaded with toys. just make sure they all work.

its a 2001 P38 DHSE. the dust boots look ok. no holes or tears yet. The pistons have very slight rust marks but not enough to call pitting. Is it tricky to bleed all the air out of the system. i knw this can be a problem on some cars?

Yet again my rear caliper is binding on one side - this time its the drivers side. i seem to be forever greasing slider pins and working pistons in and out. anyway, i think i broke something this time. i took the pads out and with a piece of wood in the caliper, i started the engine, opened lid...

cheers, i'll have a go at it next weekend. it sounds as though the easiest way to fix it is just to loosen the handle enough to snap off the lug with pliers. and further dismantling on the handle sounds more complicated

my door handles stick out and need to be pushed back in manually. they havn't started sticking yet (fingers crossed)

cheers darklordvader, i will have a go tomorrow if the weathers ok. in response to Canyon's post, if there's a fecking expensive part that can be broken in the process, then i'm just the man to break it! i guess we learn from our mistakes though

cheers Canyon. i don't need any special landrover service tools then?

hi folks, read this post with interest as i have new NGK glow plugs to fit. can someone tell me if i need any specailist tools to do this job? i've got all the usual sockets etc. but the book says i need a landrover tool (LRT-12-117) to remove the high pressure hoses Will

talking of special editions, does anyone have a linley model?

ps Mik, it is warmer in France. Aberdeenshire has been -10 every morning this week. my water pipes are frozen this morning!

cheers Mik, i think i'm leaning towards the OEM one - no faffing around with rewiring. the Bosch, Varta ones all seem to have posts countersunk at the front of the battery that my leads won't reach. the key fobs seemed to work ok this morning to open the car. do you mean for the automatic seat...

whoops, it could be too late for the settings. i disconnected last night. Is this for the memory seats? current battery is a Delphi. 12V 110Ah, R.C. 195 min. CCA (-18deg) BCI 800. what ver all that means?

cheers for the advice guys. the latest update. i went to unipart and got a new battery. when i tried to fit it tonight i found that the positive and negative leads were too short to reach the battery terminal posts! the old battery posts were right in the middle of the battery at each side and...

Hi, after my previous post on starting problems i have now got into more trouble. this morning (-10 again) the DHSE would not start. after trying the diesel warmers a few times, the battery was soon flat. during the cranking cycles various messages appeared - start engine, traction failed, etc...

Hi folks, when i left home this morning the temperature was -9 degree C. the DHSe took quite a bit of starting and in fact i thought i was going to be stuck. i don't have a garage so the car has to suffer the cold Aberdeenshire nights. Does anyone know of a fuel additive or similar to help...

cheers for the advice guys. Also, i'm pleased you reckon copperslip instead of red rubber grease as i have no idea what red rubber grease is! i do however own a tin of copperslip Will
