Hi all A bit of a cry for help here. I've just got my 2000 V-reg TD5 back from the local garage where it went for a coolant leak. they say it needs a new fuel cooler (the cylinder type) as that's the source of the leak. I've been trawling the net Rimmer Bros, Paddocks etc etc for the last...

Hi all. First off I'm not exactly mechanically minded and was hoping for some advice please. My TD5 squeals on start up which I presume is something to do with the alternator as it sounds like the aux belt slipping. The odd thing is it's ok in warm weather and stops after 10/15 min or if you...

hi all, I know there's a lot of knowledge out there so I thought I'd try and tap in to it before I spend my hard earned pennies (that's the creeping bit done). Seriously we're about to buy our first discovery. Our budget is only around 4k and we want a Disco 2 for the forward facing seven seats...

Thought I'd best say hello as I've just joined. Haven't got a landrover right now But I'm on the hunt for a Discovery series II, (probably 3.9 with an LPG conversion). I am luck enough to drive a Discovery TDV6 at work (along with other lesser 4 x 4's including Shoguns and Landcruisers. I have...
