Hi Wildthing Vibration TD5 AUTO did you ever sort this out as I have a similar problem at the moment

The regs allow an increase over the largest manufacturer recommended tyre. The 4wd community here is pushing to have uniform regulations. But even so National and State regs give an increase in diameter based on the manufacturers max tyre size. The Owners manual lists 245/70R16 as the largest...

Disco 1 Tdi 200 1993 I have searched "Tyres' without finding anything on standard sizes. Have Land Rover ever recommend any larger tyres, especially Mud Terrain than the ones listed in the Owners Manual 205/80R16 and 235/75R16 ? There are weird conflicting regulations in Aus the national ones...

Did the same thing two days ago with a Tdi 200 didnt realise there was only 0.5ltr between the Low and Full notches. I undid the sump drain plug holding a rag over the plug as it was unscrewed, this stopped the plug slipping out of the digits and the oil ran down the rag into the oil tray,I...

G'Day Hughesy I have a Disco Tdi 200 94 will this have the 10 spline half shafts and diff? What are the 24 spline half shafts and diff off? Thanks

The disc did not have anything stamped on it, if it did I would have believed it over the Paynes manual

When I recently rebuilt my Tdi 200 gearbox and transfer case I replaced the clutch with a heavy duty unit. I fitted the clutch disc as per the info in the Haynes manual which turn out to be the wrong way round. The clutch would not disengage, the heat created due to metal parts of the disc...

All is good and happy in Disco land. I have removed the gearbox and transfer case assembly, removed the clutch and turned the fiction plate over so that the protruding side faces the gearbox - opposite to the instruction in the Haynes Manual 1989 - 1998 Discovery. I am not in to advertising my...

The Haynes Manual lists that the clutch pressure plate be fitted with the protruding side to the flywheel, I have got hold of a Workshop Manual that lists that the clutch pressure plate be fitted with the protruding side to the gearbox, O dear how sad never mind! Maybe not allowing the old...

I have just refitted a reconditioned gearbox and transfer case replacing the clutch with a heavy duty one, after problems bleeding the clutch replaced the clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder, the clutch would still not release. Removed the thin spacer from between the slave cyl'd and...

My Tdi 200 93 passenger window did the same thing jamming about half way down, holding glass either side and applying upward pressure while someone else pressed the button got the window closed. After removing the inner door panel I found that the window bracket was bent at one end and catching...

My 200TDI was overheating removed and flushed the radiator still overheating especially during heavy going on the beach, replaced the viscous coupling on the fan and all was cool again, I have heard you can repair them with oil from - can I say the word - Toyota -

Cheers Discool, I'll try the brighter bulbs and post the results. Thanks

TDi 200 94 I have searched the 'Disco Headlight Thread' Has anyone changed the original 50/55watt headlight lamps for the 100watt type, If the wiring is upgraded - relay added and a separate supply - are the headlight shells going to cope with the extra heat? Does the change give much of an...

Disco 1 TDi 200 94 Recently purchased this fine piece of..... :confused: that needed to be push started; on the third journey out, by two passing victims, I say this cos their kindness was rewarded with the normal cloud of crap that comes out the exhaust on start up. Anyway checked the starter...
