    Do you think it will run?

    Cheers Sean. Saw that one but I'm a bit stuck for transport to get it oop North. Got a lead on a rotten 3 door with a good engine that's more local to me. If I get it, then there should be some parts for sale. Anyone need any black bodywork or interior parts? Oh and ta very muchly for all...

    Any news on engines/rusty cars? All help gratefully received.

    Do you think it will run?

    Going a bit fast, I think. Overtaking on the M55

    Do you think it will run?

    This is what the doris has done to my motor!!! Does anyone know where I can get an engine or rotten but running 300TDi? Need it sharpish as I have to get to work next week and pick the kids up on Saturday. Might have to bite the bullet and follow in the footsteps of HB and Grippa:eek: :eek:

    Disco v's slitty's

    If you're asking about the one my mate was using, it was a borrowed, drag along type. Don't know the make as I'm not a farmer. It was busted when I turned up but was soon fixed and ran for the rest of the day. Apparently, he was dragging it too fast and a bolt sheared off.

    Disco v's slitty's

    Yesterday, I had the pleasure of helping out a mate bailing hay off his land. There were a few of us there and each turned up in various vehicles. I had my 300TDi Disco, there was a Nissan Terrano and an Isuzu L200. The Nissan arrived and promptly lost its clutch getting into the field. Strike...

    Another scam

    Hmm, think I may have made a boo-boo there! Ah well, live and learn and all that.

    Another scam

    I did as it happens but only on an old pooter at work that was about to be stripped and dumped. The wording didn't look right and when you hover over the link it went to a thievingscum.com address. I was quite impressed at how good the fake site looked including all the 'correct' links. It's...

    Another scam

    Just thought I'd let everyone know about another scam doing the rounds. It's not Landy related but the more people who are aware of it, the less likely the thieving b*******s are to make any cash out of it. The site it takes you to is impressively genuine looking (but only if you've got decent...

    Windscreen wiper relay location

    Not sure but I would have thought that at least they could point you in the right direction. Failing that, any decent motor factors should be able to get one for you. Where are you?

    Windscreen wiper relay location

    Tried Halfrauds?

    Windscreen wiper relay location

    I'd say so. Never had to change it myself though so can't guarantee. However, taking the panel off either side is just a matter of using a coin in the trim screws so only takes seconds.

    Windscreen wiper relay location

    Extract from the RAVE manual you downloaded the other day. Of course, it doesn't help a great deal that you could see the RH side as driver or passenger depending on where you stand/sit! Either way, I'd look on the (English) offside first as you don't need to lift the carpet to get to the...

    Box of Budgies

    Have you tried putting a washer or 1p piece behind the tensioner assembly? I had the same problem, replaced the bearing and the noise was still there. Put a thin washer behind the tensioner at the 9 o'clock position and all has been quiet since.

    Yep

    Indicators don't self-cancel

    Mine don't work either, never had since I got the disco. I found that there is a plastic tab on the back of the steering wheel that had broken. For me, it's either a new wheel or just live with it. Had it long enough to live with it without thinking these days.

    Drivers seat bolster

    I tried fixing mine with no luck. Nearest I could get was wrapping some cable ties around the seat frame. Didn't work too bad but not as comfy as the RR classic leather seats I replaced the knackered ones with! Had a quick look about and couldn't find a replacement part so it's either, scrappy...

    Wipers don't return to parked position

    Do a search for RAVE. When you find the link, download and burn to disc and there's one of the best manuals you can get. RAVE says the relay is behind the right hand side trim panel.

    Electric seats

    Cheers for the clarity. Know what you mean about welding. I must practice more!

    Forgot to mention another big advantage over cloth seats....kids and wipe down leather!!!
