When I look at them I wonder why the first owner didnt get the extra seats, as they take up no room (can only talk about 300's) and if it is down to price. If they guy can't afford an extra 1-2k then he shouldn't be buying such a car new. Also I worry if he skimped on the extras to save money...

Not yet but may give it a go, I have been driving round with the green box dangleing and if it gets tapped the hazzards come on! Then have to prat about with it till they stop! So bolted it back up and calling it a day! If I lose the last fob I will simply shell out the £250 quid and get a new one!

No I tested that the bonnet catch was working by depressing it and setting alarm then letting go. Alarm went off so all was well. Pressed the horn it works. Led flashes. Doors lock and unlock. So I am guessing there may be something else in the programing or mine is locked out form...

It is shown on the RAVE under the code on thread topic

Lol Ok looks like all the oldies are not up for it! Guess you will be able to save the money and have the boot floor re welded lol. It is indeed the photo that is posted second. The one I have is here. They were made by LR as an optional extra and make the box look a little easier on the...

Just wondering if anyone has a spare roof spoiler sat arround for sale? I have one on another Discovery and thought about taking it off but its well stuck down and will mess the paint up if I do! Its cool as it stops the rain and water entering at the top of the door and keeps the boot dry...

Lol I have tried it all! Stood on one leg, Whilst whisteling the national anthem and practicing been a nudest and still no luck! :eek: Would it make any diffrence that it was a Land Rover Special? I even tested the bonnet catch to make sure it was working, forgetting that I was stood...

As for fly by wire (I am yet to look into this, whats it look like? Mine is auto and has a diaphram looking thing that I presumed was the kick down. And then a throtle cable link that connects to an arm round a swivel and onto another cable.) Is that fly by wire? I thought the whole wire thing...

Lol I did read that the RAVE had missed out a set of lock unlock but I got miffed off by it and thought its not worth standing in the rain any longer! I will give it another go and if not either give up or take it to the key fob man in Brum.

New born mode When the ECU is first produced, it will be in its ’new born’ mode. In this mode it will respond to any remote of the right frequency. This mode will be cancelled when the ECU has received ten valid handset signals without power interruption. I am guessing that...

OK the RAVE CD seem to be contradicting its self! lol It says you can self learn (I have read it on here before and people say it only works for the 200 early cars. I am starting to beleive it as it dosn't work on my P reg 300TDI.) Its the following: HANDSET INITIALISATION NOTE: New...

I have spoken to a friend who has broken a Rover VI and apparently the guy who bought the alarm from him needed the Fob, Green Alarm ECU (Theft Alarm Unit as it says on my shiny new RAVE CD!), and the ECU for the car. Some people have told me that the 300TDI P reg dosen't have an ECU but I...

Ok changed the lock barrels on the Drivers, Passanger door and Petrol Tank. The rear door looked a bit of a hassle so left it, thinking if I need to use the key I can do it Via the drivers door anyhow. I tried to swop the Green Alarm ECU! :5bbanghead: Seem to have come accross a problem...

Like I said I understand the theory behind a Diff. I understand in theory how the Diff on a discovery works. I have owned Russian Military Trucks in the past with 2 LSD, Diff Locks, and 4 wheel drive and RS Turbos with LSD. What I don't understand yet is what bits are required/used on the...

Is there a way to see from underneath or is it a case of poping the cover off?

I understand how a diff works YouTube - Differential Unit But I am thinking something may be missing thus it been in position but it not been locked. YouTube - LT230 Difflock Mechanism I am thinking that the transfer box may not be complete.

Hi sorry for the late reaction! No it is the Discovery 1 300 TDI. The Manual P reg TDI works in all 4 positions (Transfer box) and the Diff lock light comes on and the wheels squeek build up and let slip grip. The Auto P reg TDI works in all 4 positions (Transfer box) but the Diff lock...

Ok I understand the diff lock and why it does it, even down to how it dose it. But the discovery is the first time I have come accross the ability to lock it. My new one will go into High, Low, And same on the Diff Lock. But no light and no lock (I can lock the others and can feel the lock...

The 1st one I bought had it done and it is perfect. Not sure about who and what tint was used. The drivers and pasangers were done also but when I was pulled the cop ripped them off! Either that or £60 and 6 points:eek: Another thing I would say is it makes visability crap for reversing at...

They do both cars and houses! lol so may not be the best!
