    Disco 2 Need a steer

    Update on this, passed the retest! Replaced the rods with Lemforder so I know what's on there, drop arm movement was because you could turn the bottom nut with your hand!! All tightened now. Steering box leak only slight so tempted by stop leak.. Typically, the drive belt snapped the day...

    Disco 2 Losing my throttle

    OK, was under the impression the TPS was integral to the throttle pedal assembly and so +£300 new parts.. Is the sensor alone replaceable?
