Thank you guys for your response. I've done all of the relevant checks as you've suggested. I am now considering the new wiring harness. I'll give it one last chance! The guy who works for me loves it , and does not want a new one but he may not have a choice.

:violent: The Disco has been struggling with the flashing cogs of death (S & M) for a few months now. I've managed to get it to limp on for a while. I have bought a second hand xyz switch and tried it but no change. I then bought a new xyz switch and a professional Lynz diagnostic kit to...

This is how you do it!

RE: P38 DSE I have had the above since it was 3 years old. It has now covered 180,000 miles. On average it does 20mpg- 22mpg. Cold weather makes a big difference to the consumption. In really cold weather we are down to 18mpg. Simple maths, the tank is 90 litres, divided by 4.546 = 19.79...

Before you check your glow plugs, on your first start in the morning, have the bonnet up ready, turn the ignition on and check the clear plastic pipe between the fuel filter and the injector pump. If you see bubbles of air, fuel is running back. Also, a tell tale sign of this is that you'll...

Just reading about your wheel bearings. I think you'll find that they're the same hubs as the P38 Range Rover. You can buy the bearings for around £60 each from Paddocks at Matlock Paddock Spares - Land Rover, Range Rover Parts & Accessories - Discovery, Defender and Freelander. I did all...
