Right... so I've spoken to Paddock Spares and gaskets are not needed apparently... I assume that is correct? So... is this everything that I should order?? ...or is there anything else I need? 1x ESR2391 | Centre and Rear Silencer Assembly - 300TDI (except Japan) 2x NV108041L | Nut Locking 3x...

brettguise - I'm not fitting a "sports exhaust" and when the new one is fitted I'm guessing it won't sound any different and won't perform any better... right?

Ah, good point - so I should buy the following: - 1x ESR2391 | Centre and Rear Silencer Assembly - 300TDI (except Japan) - Set of gaskets. - New bolts. - Rubber hangers (just in case the old ones are perishing).

So... the votes are now decided! I'm going for the cheap one. ESR2391 | Centre and Rear Silencer Assembly - 300TDI (except Japan) - £44.93 (inc. VAT) 1 vote (Mr Noisy) 1 vote (hamish247) 1 vote (iwantone) 1 vote (DiscoPol) DA4223 | Stainless Steel Centre and Rear Silencer Assembly - 300TDI...

The "performance one" from Paddocks was mentioned by: I don't really want a performance one... I just wondered what it was! So currently there's two votes for the £207.00 stainless exhaust & one vote for the cheap one. One person says the cheap one will last a few years and someone else says...

So... we currently have this: ESR2391 | Centre and Rear Silencer Assembly - 300TDI (except Japan) - £44.93 (inc. VAT) 1 vote (Mr Noisy) DA4223 | Stainless Steel Centre and Rear Silencer Assembly - 300TDI Non Cat (except Japan) - £248.40 (inc. VAT) 1 vote (discool) 1 vote (nathanglasgow)...

So... you are saying to search Google for this: "forfookssake" And are you saying that the stainless steel one is basically a waste of money or sensible to buy??

QUESTION 1 - My rear silencer fell off yesterday, so which of these two would you recommend? ESR2391 | Centre and Rear Silencer Assembly - 300TDI (except Japan) £44.93 (inc. VAT) DA4223 | Stainless Steel Centre and Rear Silencer Assembly - 300TDI Non Cat (except Japan) - £248.40 (inc. VAT)...

well i'm thinking that it can't be that hard to block off the existing air inlet on the airbox. maybe I then just need some 3 inch diameter plumbing elbows, a bit of 3 inch flexipipe (to go in a straight line between the elbows, the airbox and the snorkel), then some tiger seal to just hold the...

I already have a standard 300Tdi Discovery airbox... I just don't have the necessary fittings and hoses! I have phoned many scrap dealers and suppliers and I simply cannot get any Safari hoses suitable for my setup! I have then been to AC Commercials to look at their available pipes, and none...

My Disco 1 has a Safari snorkel fitted. I have finally got a standard airbox, but I just need everything to connect the safari snorkel to the airbox... Anyone know if this can all be bought cheaply, or perhaps custom-manufactured? I've been pondering and can't easily come up with anything -...

I keep track of my MPG too: Mileage - Land Rover Discovery ES TDi, 1997, 2495cc I have a '97 300Tdi Disco 1, auto gearbox, mud tyres, 2" lift, snorkel, spotlights, heavy bumpers, EGR removal & de-cat. Here's my average: I've been doing more short journeys this winter, which probably...

Right... in the end I bought 4 metres of this: 1x Black cotton Overbraid Vacuum Hose 4.5mm (VH010B) | eBay I then cut it into 3 lengths (with lots spare so I can cut the ends off for years to come): - Vacuum pump <---> t-piece. - T-piece <---> actuator/diaphragm. - T-piece <--->...

Well... what a cock-up today has been! I've spent 3 hours working on it and got nowhere! I don't have a 40 torx bit, so had to drive to the local garage to borrow one (very friendly garage!). I then rounded off the torx bolt holding the window frame in because it was just so damn tight! I...

i found these instructions earlier... but it looks like that's for the latch itself, not the lock, if you know what I mean. For example, if my door is properly unlocked, if I pull on the inside or outside handle they both open the door and both handles go back in by themselves. I don't have...
