The repair listed on the Virgin Islands link is the one. The fault is caused by an intermittent connection to the shuttle valve. It is possible (probable?) that the shuttle valve itself is ok. I would try the repair on the exisiting valve first. You have nothing to loose. Guard against...

This thread really reinforces the value of this forum. At first I thought the Nanocom was the device to have - now changed my mind. I think the Hawkeye looks the better bet -its the cost of adding another vehicle that puts me off. Still thats better than having a Nanocom "brick". What...

I agree about support - it's very important. Elsewhere on this forum there is a guy with a "bricked" Nanocom that failed to upload the new firmware. This can often happen with any computer based gear and its essential to have some good support when it does. I need a Naocom to find out why...

I received the following Email reply from Mattia on Monday (26th) Hi, A small stock of new nanocom will be ready in august and many more in september. I will advertise on the home page of the site when the first stock of nanocom will be available with price and details, in september there...

This is the direct link to the shuttle valve fix ABS Mod - Land Rover Club V.I. I also had the 3 amigos and did this fix. Its easy. It is a bit fiddly getting the valve assembly out and the new one in - but there is no need to bleed the brakes afterwards. The valve itself is about £35...

I have previously had the 3 amigos and fixed them (new shuttle valve assembly plus wiring mod). I now have something different. A couple of times I have the ABS, TC and brake warning light come on accompanied by the dreaded 3 chimes. I bet this is discussed somewhere here but all I get...

a link would be helpful

garmin make a satnav that is specifically designed to give an external display. i forget the model but just browse their site. i used it on my volvo to get a display on the built in screen. try a search on the swedespeed site for a description.

bugger! wish i had known - just ordered one from paddock.

You will be lucky to find a Nanocom - so the choice may be even more limited than you thought! I haven't used any so cannot give any real advice. Good luck - don't forget to let us know what you did buy and how it worked out. Ian

I too recently joined the leaky sunroof club. It was about the only common fault my Disco (2 - face lifted - 2002) had avoided. With the help of the descriptions given here I tackled the job today - in the rain!! Discovered both drain pipes had snapped off the front sunroof. Hence...

Where did you order the Nanocom? I haven't been able to find one. INterested to know how much it cost too. Good luck with it :). Ian

Just ordered the covers above. Does anyone know where to get the thingy that removes the cover? Mine is broken. Bet its Main Stealer Thnaks Ian Wilson
