TYRESAVE: Tyre Size Calculator this shows that the 60s will be 22mm larger or 3.12% difference in diameter. This will have a bearing on the speedometer reading (it will under-read). Accelleration may be slightly slower. What you really need to know is, will they fit under the arches without...

Totally agree, check the brakes are working as they should then spend your money on some advanced driving lessons.

This works out about 16mpg:eek: . My 4.0i V8 has done better. To work out the fuel consumption you need to fill the car up, zero the trip meter and when you fill it up again note the amount in litres and the mileage covered. Divide the amount of litres by 4.545 to get gallons then divide the...

Leave it on it makes a great mechanical reversing sensor. It also reduces the chances of your car being damaged if shunted from behind.:rolleyes:

Walk away, you have made a judgement regarding the seller, trust your instincts. If you buy the car you will always wonder about it, wether you've HPI checked it or not.

If it is a Denso starter you may be able to get the parts very cheaply from the USA. See Starter Repair Instructions For Denso Starters

The symptoms are more like a flat battery, I think it was sheer luck it started with a thump from a hammer:eek:

Does the engine temperature go down as well? If so suspect your thermostat is stuck open, a new one shouldn't cost too much.

Good point,:eek: Land Rover Discovery Towbars from Towsure :D Just found this as well Towing Kits & Electrics

Otherwise known as a 'mechanical reversing sensor'. They are very easy to fit although the electrics can be tricky. Try Land Rover Freelander Towbars from Towsure, you'll get the right electrics from them as well.:cool:

This isn't a trialling scam to fit fiddle brakes is it? Ok then, have a look at the Rover 820/827, the rear calipers have the handbrake facility built in and are possibly a staight swap for the LR ones.

It's very rare for modern cars to suffer total brake failure. It would be possible to fit rear calipers from a large Rover or Honda saloon that incorporate a handbrake mechanism but not worth the bother as they tend to seize up/ break as they age. You would have to source handbrake cables of...

It sounds like the starter is jammed or shorting out. Remove the starter and clean everything up making sure all the moving parts including the solenoid are free. Good luck.

Check the rear diff support bushes, it may be nothing worse than that

I assume one of your heated mirrors isn't working, if so why do you think the element has failed, have you chjecked the wiring? If you want a 'new' heated element you could try a car breaker, you'll probably find the mirror is similar to some Rover car models.

The V8 engine tends to have a low oil pressure at tickover anyway, this is one of the reasons it has a large oil capacity. The light can be caused by nothing worse than a faulty oil pressure sender switch so that is worth changing anyway. Make sure the oil pressure relief valve (on the oil...

Sorry I do not know if these parts will fit your TD5 starter. Your best bet is to open the solenoid check the shape of the terminalsd and measure the plunger. Once you habe the dimensions cross reference them from this site.Denso Starter Contacts, starter repair kits, starter solenoid parts...

Did this job not so long ago with Paddock grooved and drilled discs. easy peasy. Don't forget to use copper slip on the disc to hub faces and pad backs. Good luck:cool:

You may need a new lpg filter or the gas pressure re-set. You probably need to take the car to an lpg specialist to be set up right.
