    serpintine belt

    Get a big spanner and a short scaff bar (for leverage) and lift the pre tensioner. Should slide off the pulleys.

    Battery Light...1 Amigo??

    Sod that. I went to the breakers and got one for £40. Works just fine.

    Battery Light...1 Amigo??

    TBH its a **** either way... at least if you are under it only your legs poke out and not your ass if you lean in... You can get to it either way though. Oh, use a ring spanner not a socket. Just takes a while to undo - one of those pain in the ass jobs for a relativly quick fix...

    Battery Light...1 Amigo??

    It does look easy but the bottom bolt on the alternator is a bugger to get to... When you put the belt back on make sure the ribs on the belt realign back on the pulleys otherwise its a new belt in a few miles... I tried doing mine on my own and its a mare... You need to lift the pre...

    Boot door speakers...

    Both myself and a guy from a sterio shop have looked for the illusive Red and Black connector but can't find the bloody thing behind there. I even had one of my kids with his arms down there hunting for it! I can only assume the previous owner has really tucked it away or cut it off... Now...

    Boot door speakers...

    OK, after spending ages hunting about where the sterio goes I can't find the wires to use for my subs in the boot door. I'm assuming they are either too low in the dash to find or they have been cut out :( Anyway, the subs are working but not as subs - as normal speakers so my questions are...

    rear door speakers

    Is that still going to be there on a standard 300Tdi? I did have a quick look while the guy had the head unit out but could only see the main 2 sets of wires.

    rear door speakers

    Hi, I just had the same thing today. Went to a car radio place as I have no idea! I have an Alpine non standard head unit. There is a really great thread on here about changing the subs but I couldn't find the block with the black and red wires in it in my 300Tdi. So, all the guy did in mine...

    Gear stick position in neutral

    Thanks... Looks like an easy fix... Will it cause any long term issues if its this or can i just get used to it?

    Gear stick position in neutral

    I have just got a 1997 Disco 300Tdi and when its in neutral the gear stick sits over to the left where 1st\2nd gear is rather than in the 3rd\4th position. Am I being paranoid or is this indicating an issue somewhere? If there is something wrong is it an easy fix? It seems to go into all the...

    VIN On Dash...

    Hi All, Just got a new (to me) dash from someone breaking their Disco. Its the same as my current one but just a lot cleaner! Had a look at it and it seems to have a VIN Number on there. If i replace my one with the new one means I'll have different VIN's in the car. Do I have to tell...

    Manual v Auto? Diesel v V8LPG?

    Thanks for the feedback so far!! As i'm not mechanically minded (a little knowledge can be dangerious) I'm erring towards sticking to the Diesel - less things to sort out if they go wrong (as I like water\wading) it sounds like. So - Auto v Manual? @ Gizgrey - sounds interesting but...

    Manual v Auto? Diesel v V8LPG?

    Hi, currently got a 1995 300Tdi manaul Disco and been thinking about a new one. Having a look around but don't know the pro and cons of the different ones out there. So, couple of questions that I'm sure will start a debate (i know everyone has their own ideas on whats best ;)) but really...

    Anyone Tried Hammerite Paint?

    You could try this: Protecta-kote is an advanced Polyurethane anti-slip paint that lasts, anti-slip UK Specialist, anti slip coatings I used it inside once I had taken the carpets out. Smells for a while but is good stuff. Not too sure about the outside but see no reason why not...
