Treworgey 90, are you refering to the front shocks as incorrect only? If so I stand coerrectd

This sounds more like a spring or spring mount problem. Shocks keep spring bounce under control, they don't do anything to keep the suspension raised. The only way I could see that they would effect ride height would be if they where sticking part way through there travel, this is something...

Thanks, I'll keep going, least I know sopmeone else has managed to sort it

Any idea how, I've tried that on both of them and can't seem to get the button to self return

Ok, why is it that it's the little things about a big job that do your head in? Came to put the centre consol;e back on after fitting a new clutch, released the hand brake cable and pulled the lever all the way back, put the console in place and put the lever back down and that was it, the...

Thanks for the swift reply Andy, Didn't wan't to take the gear box off again, so I said my prayers and then agreed to go shopping with the wife (comes to something when shoppping beats fixing the car). Just got back in the car, started it and driven it, clutch drag and assosciated noise gone...

Hi, Just replaced the clutch plate, pressure plate, release bearing and fork on my Sreg 300tdi. The clutch is dragging slightly and it is a little difficult to engage forward gears, but more so difficult engaging reverse. I can feel the clutch biting about half way up its travel as you would...

Thanks for all your help, will be diving in mid week, will be putting up for sale after that. Just glad I didn't sell it before this happened, wouldn't have looked good to the new owner,

My main concern is the weight of the box, this suggests that the box can be moved back with the aid of a trolley jack and the cross member combined with I'm guessing, a bit of sheer grunt! Oh.. forgot to add that it is a 1998 300tdi

I'm planning on doing it this way Discovery clutch change - LR4x4 - The Land Rover Forum , looks do-able, anyone any experience of doing this at home. Don't fancy engine out as I don't have an engine crane and I don't want to buy one just for one job. Not to keen on paying a garage for the...

Hi, developed a clutch problem yesterday, While driving I put the clutch pedal down, the clutch did not release and the pedal stayed flat to the floor, I had to lift it back up with my toes and that was it, no more clutch. My first thought was a punched through clutch fork, when I looked ast the...

Anyone got any idea about this?

Just had my 300tdi head skimmed, 6thou off (gulp). Valve recess should be 0.81-1.09mm for inlet and 0.86 to 1.14mm for exhaust, mine are 0.3 number 1 exhaust, 0.4 number 4 exhaust and the rest are 0.5. Had a 3 hole 1.5 gasket originaly. Machine shop don't want to cut the seats, say they would...
