HaHa you're a braver man than I

I'm always telling my wife that but what we call tools she calls toys

Lol, just been checking borascopes out on ebay. You can get them really cheap for a smartphone. Might have to invest in a new toy. Don't tell the wife though.

Yes I did have the rear belt done at the same time as the main one. Must admit never heard of this before but just looked it up on the Internet. Thanks for the heads up. I saw a quote somewhere that said "Land Rover, 60 years of turning drivers into mechanics". They weren't kidding.

I've not taken the blank off yet. I had my cam belts changed by a dealer after I'd had the car a year or so. Never had the oil pump cover checked, don't even know where it is. Is it a common problem?

No it's a 7 seater, it's such a base model I think they had to pay extra to have wheels fitted lol.

It's just a plain blanking plate

Hi Gary, Thanks for your reply, unfortunately my model doesn't have that button. The only indication that I have selected reverse is that the gear selector indicator shows "r"

Hi, I have a 2006 Disco 3 base model and am thinking of fitting reversing sensors. Does anyone know if the wiring harness is fitted inside the bumper or would it be a case of wiring them in? Thanks

Oops, sorry Gary

Once again, many thanks Graham

Hi, I have a Disco 3 2006 model and have decided to change the fuel filter / filters. When I search on the internet 2 filters come up. one is LR009705 and the other is a LR010075. I have found instructions for fitting the LR010075 on the internet but not the LR009705. Are there 2 fuel filters in...

My slow driving is a family joke, they would reply that I never reach 2000 revs lol. Must admit though it did perform much better when I took it out earlier. I forgot to mention that your tip to remove the box for the brake pipes was a gem. It came off easily and made the job much easier.

Did the MAP sensor today.

I've been looking for MAP cleaner on the Internet. Some people say to use electrical contact cleaner. Do you know if this is ok? Thanks
