Battery disconnected! Waiting game now then!!

Cheers Dave , i will try that now. I'm not bothered about the radio as its not factory fitted! I'm in a bit of a panic though as the missus drives it in the day with the little uns!! Thanks for the advice i'll let you know how i go on!!

Thanks Big lad, how do i do that. Sorry for sounding so stupid but this is something i'm not familiar with!

While driving the Landy it has appeared to grow?! The ride height has gone up significantly for no reason at all. I have tried running it up and down the road but up she stays. I havn't been off road and i havn't been messing with the ride height button. Can someone please shed some light as she...

I bought a 2001 td5 about a year ago and in my opinion it's a great motor. I'm not saying it's faultless, but if you know your way around a tool box and your not afraid of getting your hands dirty then it's a good user friendly car! A decent tool kit, bit of common sense,this forum, and you wont...

Seems to be a few different opinions on here. After another call to the auto factors the 5w30 fully synth is only a pound a gallon more than the 10w40 semi synthetic, so it's not really a question of cost. More of an issue of which one is better for the engine. My original post was more of a...

Ok i must have mis-heard when he said fully synthetic. The semi 10- 40 sounds like a much better option. Many thanks for the advice! :)

Looking at changing oil, filters etc at the weekend and have had a quote of £17.50 for a gallon of 5w30 fully synthetic Ac Delco oil. After looking at the prices of oil at Halfords for various brands this seems very cheap, or is it just crap oil?? The quote was from a trade motor factors so i...

Thanks a lot guys! I'll keep on searching for a set!!

Can anybody tell me if the wheels off a 300 TDi Defender will fit a 2001 TDI Disco 2? The part no for the wheels are ANR1689 (7Jx16x330AH2). Any help much appreciated!

Nevermind eh! I'll let you know the tidy profit i make. Cheers.:)

It looks exactly like that one thanks. Oh well you live and learn, if i dont get a refund i'm sure i can make a bit of profit as i paid £195 for five inc postage. Thanks for the help!!

Nice wheels, guess i should have looked closer at the tyre size!!

Thanks, the holes are too close together. Freelander then i guess. I'll try to get some pictures up later.

After purchasing a set of wheels and tyres from ebay for my Disco 2, i was like a kid at Christmas waiting for their arrival only to find when trying to fit them that there aint no way they belong on that car. They were advertised as Discovery 2/ P38 wheels but the distance between the stud...

I bought an O ring aswell, the only problem i think is the lack of a torque wrench, Maybe the local tool hire shop has one! Thanks for the advice folks.!

I'm planning on changing one of the rear hubs on my 2001 disco this weekend and was after some advice regards removal of the hub. Will i need a hub puller or any other specialist tools to remove it and is there any advice anyone can share with me? Already looked for other threads but theres...

Thanks for the advice and the link to autoleads. They've got just what i need at a snip of the cost. Cheers!:)

Having just bought a Y plate TD5 with the original radio/cassete player,i want to replace it with a radio/cd player(not multi changer) and would like some advice as to what wiring kit i would need for it to be compatible with the steering wheel controls. It currently has an Alpine system and i...

Just joined a few weeks ago and find the forum really interesting. I'm in a bit of a pickle as i'm looking to buy a Discovery about 7-9 years old to do a bit of caravan towing and to use as a day to day vehicle. Question is auto or man? Might seem a stupid question to you on here but i'm new to...
