Morning all!! Has anyone in the wantage Oxfordshire area got 4 spare wheel nuts to fit discovery 300tdi alloy wheels. The ones with the Crome caps? There only on eBay as sets of 20!!! I need 4. Thanks James.

good evening all!! just a quick one... my father inlaw has a td5 disco facelift. he has just had a set of general grabbers at2 fitted, he was told to run 34psi in them but they look quite soft. i think the size is 255 55 18, whats the best pressures to run??? thanks james.

Hi all.... my 98 300 tdi has developed a noisy steering wheel. sounds like somthing is rubbing or catching somthing.... i took off the cowling around the back expecting it to be this but the noise continues!! anyone got any ideas????? thanks james.

i wound in a long bolt in the hole in the centre and it pushed the the whole lot out. was a bit of a headache till i worked it out. you fitting a 200tdi rear shaft?? no more rubber dognut! done that with mine!! much better.. no more shredding rubber dognuts. james.

so keep origanal spring and uprate my shocks?? sounds good to me. would you go for poly bushes or rubber?? cheers jimbo

hi all, if i was to change my suspension (springs and shocks) on my 300 tdi would oem parts or after market hd kit be the better option? i want to keep the truck at standard height. i do go green laning and do a bit of towingbut its mainly used on road. cheers jimbo!

i think its original so its been on for 12 years. Not bad really!! i will have to see if there is any numbers on it then to see which one i need. do the new units that paddocks or craddocks sell any good??? thanks james.

i have a few month old red top optima battery so it wont be that. would the regulator not working mean i need a new alternator? or is that somthing different? thanks jimbo

hi all!! my alternator has been playing up for months... all my lights have been pulsing, and just recently ive been blowing sidelight bulbs after about 10mins of use. what is the correct part number im after as i seem to be finding 2 or 3 diffrent ones for the 300tdi mines is an R reg late...

There is so that the headunit lighting would dim when the lights are turned on, so not to be to bright when driving at night. but im not sure which wire it would be.

brill!!

hi all, im after an a bar for my disco. just thought id ask in here to see if any one had one going spare. im in wantage in oxfordshire. cheers james.

hi, i got mine off good old ebay. they are worth 275 quid. (didnt get em for that though) but i would recommend a company near aldershot called challenger 4x4. paul bass is the owner i bought my very first ninety from him he has started doing hid headlight conv.s and spots. if he sells them...

Brill will try that then!! thanks!
