    Disco 1 speakers

    I would imagine its because the sony headunit doesn't have 6 outputs you might have to make a choice over the rear boot speakers and the door speakers,is your an es or xs model? I didn't know 300s had them in the rear doors!

    Disco 1 speakers

    No he won't have tweeters as standard in a disco 1. You need to get tweeters from maplins and you need one crossover per side, I have 4 speakers, 4 tweeters, 4 crossovers in mine, one of each at each corner mate

    Rear wiper problem

    remove your spare wheel,pop the cap up on the arm,and see if you can move the arm with no resistance,if so,most likely the splines,if not,then its probably a worn motor, either way,new motor atleast and maybe a wiper arm. hope this helps

    Engine squeak / squeal 300tdi

    before you do anything, slacken the nut on your tensioner arm (15mm) slide it forwards a little bit,put a 1 pence piece behind it on the left hand side (as your looking at it)then retighten,see if that shuts it up!
