Try DLS landrover spares I got a set from them & did mine a couple of months back. Hardest part is time taken to take everything out to get to them, could be possible to leave everything in but need to be careful.:)

I had a similiar problem with my Disco. it was the head gasket but whilest doing this noticed a leak on bottom of rad which is difficult to spot unless you remove most of the front. apparently the early ones are known for the rads leaking. easiest way to spot is by removing all the cowling, fan...

Had a call from garage earlier wheel bearings are fine. The tyre scrubbed has been changed for the spare. Apparently some tyres can go like that when they are nearing the end. Have seen it before with tyres on military lr, but not discos. Tyres on at present are Goodyear Wrangler, but will...

Will do should know by Monday night.:confused:

Dont take as long as you think managed to do it in a day, biggest problem is getting roof lining out without bending it. Sealent only £8.00. Good Luck:D

Cheers CharlesY. Thought as much checked prices parts £180 + vat. Unfortunateley due to time factor its going into garage on Monday to be checked and MOT'd. luckly I know the garage owner hes going to check and let me know the damage.

I Had same problem on mine also 99 td5 stripped roof lining out popped sunroof including outer frame out resealed with silicone sealant from B&Q replaced all after cleaning roof lining now dry as a bone even after all the heavy rain. The sealant under the outer trim is only a small amount when...

Just got back off holiday from Burnham on Sea. on way down Disco (TD5) started squeeling after braking but was intermitant checked brakes seem ok whilest under vehicle noticed right rear tyre was scrubbed on inside only, other tyres seem ok (All pressures ok as well). Has anyone come across...

I had the same problem with mine its easy enough to sort. It normally leaks from the fuel regulator end. Garage charges a bit though. parts are easy enough to come by regulator should come with hose. Its three bolts that hold it on they can be awkard to get at. Parts cost around £60.:cool:

Depends on what you want?. Theres one in Huddersfield. there used to be one at Silkstone,There used to be one in Darfield dont know if its still there I havent been there for a while or theres Rimmer Bros in Lincoln. Ive used them a few times delivery and help is spot on.:D

Went for a drive today put the wipers on intermitent and they stopped half way through wipe, but when they are on normal wipe they work perfectly. has anybody got any ideas?. its a Discovery TD5 99 plate.:eek:

Only place i know to get them is main stealers, other outlets didnt have them or they would sell you a full set for different stereos at £30 a time. didnt fancy that so i used the wifes nail files, some are just the right size to fit. Mine was a highline model as well. :)

I Had the same problem with mine, Whilst on holiday in Cornwall. Went to main Stealers they wanted £350. for a new unit said thank you and will think about it left them, 5 mins later main stealers phoned and said they had made a mistake and the actual cost would be £700 for the unit but price...

Recently replaced the front seal on my 99 plate td5. Still leaking, stripped roof lining out last weekend (again) took sunroof out popped surround out cleaned old mastic away replaced with black silicone sealent from B&Q. Checked it today after all the heavy rain and now appears to be dry as a...
