    Disco Rear load cover - Free

    I have a rear load cover off my 95 Discovery 1 here for anyone who would like to collect it. I don't want anything for it. It is light brown, needs a good clean but it works. The plastic capping on one end is broken but that doesn't affect the operation of it, see photo. I am in Havant near...

    Strange Behaviour-3.9 Disco

    Update. I haven't had time to do anything until today. I decided to do a thorough job so I thought might as well give the Plenum a good clean, as I disconnected the TPS notice that one of the wires coming from it was broken right inside. It was just stuffed in!! That's Britpart for you- you...

    Strange Behaviour-3.9 Disco

    Turn the key, it starts first time. Idles at around 6-700rpm with no problems at all. Pulls away fine and then starts to lurch at about 25-30mph. It's as thoughthe fuel is being momentarily shut off and on. If i lift off it will even out again and I can cruise at 30 with no problems. A little...

    Throttle potentiometer

    Thanks for quick replies I've got one from Paddocks. I've gone down the Britpart route:eek: because a genuine one is worth as much as the Disco.

    Throttle potentiometer

    I need to replace my throttle position sensor. The part no shown on it is Lucas 84925A for a 213SA ECU. As you can see from the piccy it has two screw holes. Every other one I can find (including on Microcat) has elongated holes so it can be adjusted. It is for a MY95 3.9 Disco. Can anybody...

    MOT fail

    I had the same problem when I got mine. I saw a relatively bad hole there and poked around and found a bigger hole:(. I had both sides done by a local mobile welder for £150 which I thought was a good price so £80 is a bargain by my reckoning.

    LPG - Buzzing noise and orange light constantly on?

    The unit is only live when the ignition is on. Check the wiring from the switch forward, you may have a short.

    Keys, ignition barrels and L/Rover codes

    See if you can find a driver's door lock and key at a scrappy. If you're not bothered about having two keys that would fix it.

    Autobox problem

    Sidewaysste and TheBigLad: How dare you suggest I could be so stupid. I've owned a number of landies, I'd never do that!!!! And if I find the idiot who didn't put the lever back properly there will be serious trouble.:o:o:o:o:o. Thanks for reminding me to check the simple things first! I...
