    Wanted Discovery 1 front and rear axles

    What are the differences? I have a 1984 90 to convert to discs all round. As long as it fits this car and has discs, I don't think I mind where they come from.

    Td5 hydro lock

    I rebuild the TD5 if it's something you want to get done in the future - staglandrover. For the oil in exhaust, are you sure it's not just water coming out after collecting some soot, making it look like oil?

    Disco 2 Disco down

    Oh, I see. My experience was some years ago and I can't remember how the cooler attaches tbh. It was a P38. I assumed they are the same but maybe different.

    Disco 2 Disco down

    Just as a word of caution, you might want to check the thread on the cooler. I don't want to make your job any harder for no reason but it would be a shame to have it come off again. The reason that I make the comment is that some years ago, I sold what I thought was a good cooler only to be...

    ERR5345 crank thrust bearing thickness?

    Yes, I was about to buy a pair from them but I wanted to check if it really is the bearings that are at fault rather than the crank.

    ERR5345 crank thrust bearing thickness?

    Does anyone have a new ERR5345 that wasn't made in China? I need to know the proper thickness of a new one please? I'm trying to install my crank but it's getting hung up on the thrust bearing. My bearings are Allmakes - made in China. I don't trust them to be honest.

    What have you done to your Landie today.

    Today I repaired my engine loom on the TD5. Including replacing the glow plug leads and a new shielded cable to the CPS. It now looks like this... Not like this...

    Testing Td5 Thermostat off the vehicle

    I did this with mine last week. Water slowly trickles through. It was brown and manky so I tried it with another used one which was very clean inside and no water trickled through. My verdict was that my original was on its way out.

    Disco 2 D2 rear wiper motor on bench

    Yes, I did notice it was LHD but hoped it wouldn't matter for the rear motor. It was the connections internally that were useful but thanks for the RHD version, I'll save that. Where are these drawings from? Rave or some other manual?

    Disco 2 D2 rear wiper motor on bench

    Yeah, that's exactly what I needed to see. I should be able to work it out from that. The two extra terminals I saw must be used then, even though I don't remember unplugging any more than the big, three pin plug. Thank you.

    Engine won't Start

    Did you do the auto prime to get all of the old diesel out? Maybe some muck in the one injector not firing.
