    Disco 3, or stick with the Disco 2?

    Hi, I have looked at a couple of D1's and some more online and for around the £1000 mark they all seem to be a bag of c#¥p!!! Rusty arches, boots etc. Actually thinking I would be better off with something I had before my D2, a Jeep GC for the off road toy!!!

    Disco 3, or stick with the Disco 2?

    Well, 10 months in to D3 ownership and I am glad I moved. Yes it has had tyres, front discs and pads, rear pads, anti roll bar bushes and links, fixed the sunroof leak, also chasing a noise I replaced both front wheel bearings with Timken ones for £100 each, the noise was the front diff which...

    You want it to move freely in and out with a pair of mole grips.

    Defender 300tdi

    Seemed to help with a little tighten. I take it there is a copper sealing washer underneath? Before tightening it would wiggle side to side and make a "put put" sound when running!!!!

    ......but the car is just FANTASTIC and can't part with it, yet anyway! Like somone said before, most problems are due to lack of maintenance, but that is not always the owners fault. Probably Landrover with there ideas of changing diff oils every 150,000 miles and transfer case oil at 75k...

    Discovery 3 front diff

    I have seen the refurb kits, but there are no shims/ measurement info available so it is deemed useless.

    Discovery 3 front diff

    I have replaced both front wheel bearings with genuine ones. There is transmission noise up front when driving and hell of a drone when you are decelerating, including braking. Can feel the vibrations too.

    Hope this is not a mistake
