    Sunroof motor

    Well.. I've had enough of this darn sunroof issues, yesterday morning I was horrified as I went down my lane on my way to work, I stopped at the junction and what felt like a gallon of water came shooting out of the drivers side seatbelt pillar :eek: it was ruddy cold!, I don't think I have ever...

    Sunroof motor

    I can't see any water at the moment, I have taken the map/light/satnav console down to inspect for any water damage but it didn't rain heavily last night so there's no sign of any water around the motor. It does look as if the seal towards the rear of the sunroof is being compressed by the...

    How fast is you Landy?

    I have to agree, Only times I tend to speed is when I'm stupidly late for work (even then it's hard to push any high speeds with the country roads) or motorway - most i've had is around 80mph on the motorway whilst overtaking lorries in windy conditions (I don't particularly want to be behind...

    anyone fitted kenlowe fans to disco?

    Umm.. the info in the link would suggest that the viscous fan is a better option, there is a lot of good info there, you learn something new every day! cheers.. I may just stay with the viscous setup.

    anyone fitted kenlowe fans to disco?

    Ahh I see, tbh I don't use the air con if I can help it (I pop it on now and again to keep it running), but i only tend to use it if I'm standing still and it's roasting which isn't often that happens, but since it's on the vehicle and (touch wood) it still works, I'm going to leave it be...

    Sunroof motor

    I think your right, can't see how else it's getting in, not a lot of water, just enough to annoy the hell out of me and possibly cause damage. :( On closer inspection today I noticed that the seal towards the back of the sunroof isn't as tight as the front and it does look a little damp on the...

    anyone fitted kenlowe fans to disco?

    Indeed I do, does this make a difference? - Apparently it needs replacing so I don't mind spending a bit to Upgrade things, I prefer to upgrade than replace (if it needs doing). Sounds like some like them and some don't.. any pro's and cons to electric (apart from the noise, which to be honest...

    anyone fitted kenlowe fans to disco?

    sorry to jump in on this thread but I'm interested in this subject, as my viscous fan is in need of replacement, I'm wondering if it would be a good idea to get an electric fan instead, how easy is it to fit them/ also curious as to how one wires it up correctly?

    Sunroof motor

    Thanks for the offer but I bought a sunroof motor from a breakers a while back. The sunroof ecu is fine, just water getting through the sunroof mechanism somehow. :confused:

    Sunroof motor

    I know we've had a lot of rain recently but i'm somewhat annoyed/glad, I noticed that the water in the headling has disappeared which is good :) but annoyed as I have now noticed some water around the built in sat nav unit screen (directly below the sunroof motor), I pulled the sunroof trim off...

    Sunroof motor

    Please someone correct me if i'm wrong but, with my old sunroof motor and the new'ish one, you could not turn the cogs by hand - only when the lower part of the sunroof motor assembly was dismantled and removed) I follow the advice given on this forum topic and manualy opened and closed the...

    This link maybe of use to you: Comma :: Products my local automotive store used their website to get the right oils for my disco's gear box, transfer, and diffs.

    What have you done to your Landie today.

    Perfect weather for working on a Landie :cool: .. I'm interested to hear a bit more about the "terrafirma steering damper", my discoII steering damper has a bit of play in it and needs replacing, how does the "terrafirma" one compare? much improvement (I wont be doing any heavy off roading...

    Sunroof motor

    By chance the hole is locted on the offside front corner of the sunroof seal so by chance it could be in the right position, near enough. I did wash the Landy the other day and it didn't leak.. so fingers crossed the problem has been resolved (I know its hard to say just with a small amount of...

    Sunroof motor

    Auto gear box issue after oil change

    I'd like to class myself as an amature Landrover enthusiast.. I'm not one to stand back and let a fault progress, major issues get sorted asap, minor issues get sorted when I have chance - but tbh I'm a bit anal about some minor issue, i.e. the sunroof.. really bugs me, to the point I've spent a...

    Sunroof motor

    Just wondering, since there wasn't any fitting instructions with my sunroof seal (although pretty self explanatory really). I couldn't find any on the internet either, (probably not looking in the right areas) so I went ahead and guessed, removed the old seal, scraped and cleaned up the...

    Auto gear box issue after oil change

    :D Thanks for the kind words, the whole reason for me wanting a Landrover Discovery was the fact you can work on them yourself, it's a big vehicle for carrying my friends and kit to events, and its a Landrover! :cool: ok a TD5 wasnt one of the best decisions due to the electronics but I've...
