I have a 1992 two door D1. It’s had the bonnet replaced with a later bonnet. The panel gaps either side of the bonnet are noticeably big! It’s as if early D1 bonnets were wider. Is that right? Or is there something wrong with my car… it’s not been written off and I’m sure it’s not been in an...

Can anyone give me an idea of how strong the vacuum pump should be that assists the master cylinder? I’ve taken the pipe off and I can feel some suction, but it’s quite weak. Should this be a strong suction on tick-over? The brakes have never been great on my RRC, but if you pump them on...

Today, whilst at the recycling centre, my RRC 200tdi wouldn’t start! Although most electrics seemed to work, I had no dash lights and it won’t crank. I managed to hot wire the starter, which means when the key is in the correct position the engine runs fine. Very confused. Any suggestions? Oh...

I have a RRC 200tdi and would very much like to transplant a BMW N47 engine into it. I’m keen on using a later 160-180hp engine. Has this been done? Is it possible? I know the engine, in its early form, found its way into freelander, etc. Any thought would be appreciated. Apart from ‘just leave...

I recently replaced the front prop on my RRC 200tdi (same as Disco 1) after it finally gave up. The new prop cured the mystery wobble under acceleration and at some speeds, which got slowly worse over years until it totally failed! That was a few months ago. Anyway, in the last week I’ve noticed...

I have a 1994 RRC factory manual 200tdi. I'd like to civilise the drive as much as I can. It's had a 2" lift on springs. It doesn't really drive that great. I'm due to replace the shocks soon as they're knackered, but the problem feels more like geometry/suspension setup. Is there anything I...

I removed the battery to fit a bonnet cable tonight and the remote locking doesn't work. The indicators usually flash and the LED on the dash usually flashes if I lock the door with the key, but nothing!

I'm looking to buy a one button remote for my 1993 RRC Vogue. It didn't come with one. I'm guessing one of the 14 owners lost them both... anyway, I haven't thought about it much, until tonight when I locked the truck on the passenger door and the indicators flashed and the alarm sprung into...

The shock looks like this both sides. Am I missing a shim or insert? I'm not sure what the shock is, but the truck does have a 2" lift. I'm readying the truck for a trip to Spain in the mountains, so need it in good shape. https://1drv.ms/i/s!ArB9hJ6ifRiJhz070v-BnAQgb7MD

I'm looking to replace the rectangle fog lights on the front of my 1993 RRC. This is purely to increase the light power on full beam, but I'm keen to retain some kind of originality. Has anyone had success retrofitting LED lights in their place? Or, does anyone have any other suggestions. Many...
