    Disco 3 Rear upper and lower suspension arm

    You'd be better getting someone to do it for you. It's a pig of a job. But if you do want to do it yourself, just buy a pair of complete arms as they come with bushes already installed, and they are around £85 + VAT each. You will need to cut the arms off, as they are probably corroded, and...

    Britpart or really sh1 t part?

    James, I'm about to throw the towel in with Britpart. I know we've fitted a few in the past without issue, but it isn't just this case where their parts were faulty.

    Britpart or really sh1 t part?

    Tried to fit a Britpart D2 rear coil conversion the other day, only to find the lower spring seats were incorrectly manufactured. They rested on the axle, rather than the axle bracket. The Bearmach kit fitted fine. For a DIYer, who wants to do it as cheap as possible, Britpart is worth it...

    'Switch Activation Too Long' is what a general search brings up, so could this be a valve block issue, given that it is chassis related?

    Moving oil

    Oils are becoming manufacturer specific. You ideally need the Ford product meeting WSS-M2C913-B. The GM [Vectra] is different again, as is the VAG oil.

    EXOL oil

    Land Rover specify 5w30 to Ford WSS-M2C913-B (like the Ford Magnatec) for the Td5, so make sure it meets these specs - However, I doubt it makes much difference on these...

    Puma XS ABS

    Don't ever hear this, but then it is a noisy beast after all? The Tech would have been using IDS/SDD as Testbook does not cover past Td5. No lights at all on the instrument pack? If not, wouldn't panic just yet. ;)

    live data

    Air flow is slightly high, but not bad - Should be 55 to 60 at idle with all loads off the vehicle (A/C, lights etc). Worth taking a snapshot at 2,000 rpm - should be around 190 to 200. Everything else ok. Manifold pressure will only change when driving the vehicle, not sat still revving...

    Advice on what to look for pls - 2004 Discovery 3

    It's due a very big service at 105k, so insist the cam belts and the rear HP fuel belt is done properly (and not just faked!). You are probably looking at a £1500 to do this service at a LR dealership. Check the Electronic Park Brake is working - put it on and off 10 times in a row. Check...

    JATCO Automatic Gear Box Solenoid Replacement?

    There are 9 solenoids in total, but 3 of them are 'Duty' solenoids which control the pressures around the box. It will probably be one of these which has failed, but you may as well change all 3. IIRC, Line Pressure, 2-3 Brake duty and Lock Up.
