cheers storm pm'd sirus so hopefully he can sort it

With regards to pics took some of the car earlier but not any close ups of components and can't get them on pc at mo due not being able to find bloody cable. i'll try an upload some pics 2moro if specific pics of axles etc would help tell me what to photograph and i'll take them 2moro...

The email as username was an accident due to being plastered when registering if theres a way to change it please let me know!!

Hi guys looking for a couple of pointers to properly identify a project hybrid that my mate just bought for an offroader. Its a bitsa, we were told it was range rover chassis and running gear fitted with a 3.5 v8 with a series 3 tub and wings and a defender front end. The rest ie bulkhead etc is...

tell me to p**s off but are all the tyre pressures bang on the same?

hi to all. contrary to my avatar, i now have a 300tdi auto it was registered in 1994 so its one of the earliest 300 series when i purchased the car it was painfully slow so i followed the tutorials on this forum to adjust the injector pump with marvellous results however on doing a little more...

had a similiar prob on my 300 tdi.. when you first turn on ignition does the warning lamp go through its test sequence? It should light up then briefly extinguish before coming on again then will stay on till car is moved.. if it dosen't go through this sequence there could be a problem with the...

my mates just called me an asked me to stick a post on. He's got a 1995 300tdi 3 door with about 6 months mot and a couple of months tax on. unfortunately it jumps out of second gear when letting off the gas. i don't know anything else about it. He's looking for around £1200 so if anyones...

sorry mate should have made that clearer. yes checked as per rave disc instructions, cold engine at tickover select 1st back into neutral then check. don't know if it helps but one of the problems i've been battling with is it being very sluggish particularly when cold and could only get 75 flat...

regarding the slow turnover in a morning mines exactly the same. however when i bought the car the oil hadn't been changed for a long while. did a change and turnover improved slightly. going to try connecting a better earth when i get a chance as the factory one seems to be connected to the...

well that buggers that idea then. i'll ask him what landy he's had it plugged into. knowing him it probably wasn't even a landrover. lol

hi guys could anyone tell me the length of the gearbox dipstick on a 1994 300tdi auto es. i need to make sure that the one in my disco is the correct length. i've not had car long and it came to me with numerous little faults. Whilst doing an engine service i checked box oil level as per rave...

just to add a mate of mine in the trade has a snapon diagnostic system that can talk to obd landy's he paid a fortune for the software for it but i wonder if anyone could adapt that system to run from a pc? i could possibly talk him into letting me have a copy of it if anyone thought they might...

hi guys thanks for the advice i knew about the paperclip trick on the disco but don't know if its possible on the freelander. just thought it'd be nice if i could get a connector that'd do both. as it turns out the disco is the old type 5 pin connector anyway read codes and sorted abs on that...

DOH!!! obviously i'm not reading properly!!! YES you should be able to push bushes in with a decent vice just make sure they've got a smear of oil on them and there are no burrs in the panhard rod. Its a good idea to get someone to give you a hand holding everything steady to make sure bush goes...

not totally clued up with disco 2 but i would imagine you can change bushes without removing arb completely, generally you only need a couple of inch movement to get to bushes. as for panhard rod i tried to push out with vice but wouldn't budge so i got blow torch on bush till the rubber caught...

cheers mate. i'll call before i come round. need to check if car is available, don't know if he's taking the horse to a show. definetly wouldn't be early as i rarely see daylight before midday on sundays.lol

i'm in kirkby so only 5 mins away. i'd greatly appreciate your opinion. could you pm your number so i can give you a call 2moro to arrange a suitable time. cheers mate

i'll start off by apologising for this none landy question but thought you guys would still have the knowledge and experience to put me on the right track. my best mate drives a daihatsu fourtrack that when put on hard lock tries to skip sideways (best description i can think of) i've...
