Hi all, My 300TDi is due for a new set of shoes. What I would like to know is, to you guy and girls that have Discos WITHOUT ABS, which All Terrain Tyres stop best on Tarmac in the wet as I have had a few brown trouser moments trying to stop. Currently I have 205 r 16 AT Khumo's which are...

with an engine crane,it was easier for me to remove the gearbox out the passenger door.it is a bit tricky if there is an over drive fitted.You'll need to remove the seat box and floor panels. I have dropped the gearbox backwards on another land rover I had but was so knacked after finishing the...

Hi all, I have a 300TDI auto at lowish speed going on/off the throttle I'm sure I can here the gearbox or the transfer box making a clonking noise.I've checked the hardy spicer joints(and greeced) and fitted a new rubber joint on the rear prop. and still it does this. When the rear prob was off...

Keep the cat pipe to pass the MOT and use a decat pipe and enjoy a bit more ummph and better MPG, also block off the small Diameter pipe from the exhaust manifold that goes to the inlet pipe - this stops exhuast soot blocking up your intercooler and allows your engine to breathe clean air only...

wasn't to much hastle, the front of the seats just needed two holes drilled in the front of the box and also a big notch at the front to make the seat sit as low as it can. The Granada passenger seat is fitted on the driver side in the landrover as the electric motor sit on top of the fuel...

Does anybody have a seatbox/base for sale for my seriesIIa that is reasonably local to Windsor berkshire.I've looked on Ebay and when they do come up they are either to expensive or miles away. I chopped big holes in my seat box to fit black electric leather seats(from a Granada Scorpio) all...

my tdi drives well(slowly see other post), its a 300TDI auto and there is a whining noise above 50mph and clonks when coming off the throttle, and when the autobox drops a gear. The prop shafts appear o.k and I have grease them with normal LM grease. the stuff that came out of them was very...
