Battery, had it before parked up all night start in morning no problem but leave boot open for 10 minutes and no start, you need to get it checked out.

Yes almost instantly I get good idle, I am able to raise and lower the car.

Not sure if that's what it's called but it needs to be a switchable one if that helps, been over 4 years since I had to use it as I changed from 2004 to 2008 year and inpa doesn't work on it.

If it drops overnight, there is a leak, airbags probably shot. The compressor is also likely to be knackered from overwork.

I'm no expert but my crystal ball says " it's fecked mate"

all well and good, but a lot is down to opinion (and subsequently experience) of the tester.. one mans advisory is another mans fail. tolerances in older cars arent the same as modern cars. if you've only ever seen modern, you'll fail an old car...

What's wrong with the existing one? They aren't supposed to be completely water tight

There should be a thick washer on both sides. Arm=washer=bush =chassis. Chassis=bush=washer =nut👍

It's under the spare wheel in the boot which is inclined to fill with water.

Never played with one but I think it is under the spare wheel? If it isn't there then it will probably be under the car behind the rear wheel on the left (near-side in the UK).

Springs will not affect the trailer lights. As others have said, it will be an earth problem.

I'm with the green thing (@kermit_rr ) on this one, earth problems.

Prep day to tackle the main harness tomorrow. That meant removing the front carpets, seat and cubby box. Turnes out you do NOT have to remove the heater unit, the harness passes well between the heat the bulkhead. Also, all connections to the...

If you have a charger, put the battery on charge for 24 hours, you may find some of your problems then disappear. The P38 needs a lot of power. They do not like batteries going flat.

Don't mean to offend but if you don't know the difference between a brake pipe and a cable maybe best to get someone else to do the job of changing it, just saying.

I took one end off and both ball joints felt good. That's what i thought it sounded like to be honest. I've got a new one.. maybe i should swap it anyways.. but the one that's on is only months old

Right, never looked on there didn't know they did them. I first saw a mod on fullfatrr which was a bit complicated and still ment moving lever to sport for them to work then Zeebadee (think it was)on there mentioned kit that Damien Walker had...

I could see movement in the bush clamp on mine, you sure it's not the anti roll bar link arms ?

Did it on my TD 6, swopped them on to l322 TD v8 I have now. Where did you get them from out of interest?

Front one's are bonded to the bar need to be cut off then enery the bar after to get all the bits off.

I learnt the hard way to never say where she can hear you that she's been good lately.... 😂😂

i was doing rear wheel bearing on my disco3 and dissasmbled the hand brake (drum in disc) and went to reasemble it and a spring was missing .searched all around the shoes drum and any other places and the floor was clean concrete got the wife to...

If it went down one of the oil returns, chances are it's in the sump ? From that angle, my bet would be it bounced on chassis or drive shafts & is lodged or stuck to an oily bit below. If it hit the ground it could have bounced anywhere...

Not on the 3liter, think it came in with the 4.4 hope this helps.

It would mate, you could crack the smaller clip and allow it to breath into shape and then reclip it. 👍

It's not had the clips tightened at the right moment or position and is under vacuum. 👍

Are we talking manual seats or electric?

Blimey, is that little pick up rated to tow 3.5 tonnes plus?

Do all the other buttons work for the stereo and the horn? Looks like (looking at wiring diagrams) fuse 9 for 12v, ground, i-bus and a connection to the instrument cluster. May be the clockwork spring? No relays involved, just a load of...

I've got it as number 9 in my book (2008) which is brake light, exterior lights and few other things.
