    Chattering noice when idling

    Thought I'd update. I've decided it's the springs. It's had a new clutch kit so odds are everything else is just fine and from what I can gather it sounds about right as it is a rattle, no squeal or grinding. So good news is I don't have to spend out or do any work :D Bad news is I...

    Broken door handle

    Ah ok, doesn't sound too bad. So I could transplant the lever from one to another then? If that's correct, do you know if one from a rear handle would work? The rear one's are cheaper. Thanks!

    Would my Disco have remote locking?

    It's a Disco 300TDi and has central locking but I was wondering if it would originally have had a remote key fob as it didn't come with? It does have electric windows if that helps.

    Are rear wiper motors interchangeable?

    Rear wiper motor needs replacing but they are expensive even 2nd hand on ebay. The one I have has 2 sockets, one small 2 pin and a larger 2 pin. The older and indeed cheaper ones have wires attached to them. Compared to the one I have; 2 where the small socket is and 3 where the large socket...
