    ***Internet Explorer 7 warning***

    There is also a downloadable utility from MS themselves that prevents IE7 from installing automatically if you don't want it to. And yeah, get with it - get Firefox (2.0)! Matt

    Way OT, but I couldn't not share this!

    My sister photographed this at the zoo the other day when she took her kids there...she calls it "The happiest monkey in Edinburgh Zoo!" Matt

    Scared!

    Never been, but must make the effort some day! My local mechanic races there. Wow, we've only been here full-time for a few weeks, but had a place here for the last few years. I wish, but we've just spent our "car money" on an Espace (UK unfortunately, as all I could find around here were...

    Rear tyre pressure, wrong??

    Same here - or at least I used to anyway! Matt

    Scared!

    Jason Nice place you have ...we're not too far away, being in Civray. Been looking at LR's myself on eBay.fr and like you say - few and far between. A garage around here has had an old Disco (about a 1990 as I recall) up for sale for the past three years that we have been around the area, and...

    P38 Wheel Whobble

    It is normally the wheel balancing on the P38 as it is very sensitive to unbalanced front wheels. Mine did the same until I changed the tyres, but I was convinced it wasn't the balancing as it didn't feel like that - depsite my local garage being unable to find anything wrong I didn't beleive...

    More Air Suspension problems

    Ian, Could be a few things, inc. ECU :( Have you checked the Tx box fuse / relays in the box around the fuses in the engine compartment? Putting a fuse into socket 11 (I think 11?) (one of the ones under the driver seat) will put the Trans box into neutral. That's a good way to see if power...

    Free France trip anyone?

    Thanks for the offers all, but I've got it all sorted now. Have managed to get it sorted out so that the van can stay here and I can fly back myself next week to pick that up. Cheers, Matt

    More Air Suspension problems

    Great - glad you got it sorted. Fence wire - superb stuff, that's what I used as well! The drivers side is a bit more of a pain. Personally I removed the wheel liner, but apparently you can 'bend' it back to get to the top clips! Normally if one of the springs has gone, the others are not...

    P38 air suspension prob ?

    The air suspension is certainly a problematic area, but IMHO the majority of problems are caused by poor maintenance. 1. The air bags leak and are not replaced by the owner - who either a, doesn't know they are leaking because the compressor keeps them topped up or b, the owner doesn't want to...

    More Air Suspension problems

    Can anyone "print screen" the RAVE page on this for this guy? I'm missing RAVE since my PC rebuild. The pic on that page pretty much covers it without the need for text! N/S shouldn't take you more than 15 mins! Well, probably 30 on your first go. You can get to the top of the N/S spring...

    m.p.g dhse hse??

    Yep, that's awful! You should be able to get 30mpg without too much trouble. Possibly injector no. 4, which has a sensor on it - if that dies it doesn't fuel properly and results in poor economy. Could be other things too of course! Matt

    Free France trip anyone?

    Trouble is we would need it for 3, maybe 4 weeks - which is just uneconomical to hire, not to mention that the hire companies don't like you taking them out of the country. I was going to buy one, but they are waaay to expensive (or a pile of cr*p!) and I don't have time to re-sell it to get my...

    Free France trip anyone?

    LOL, 'fraid not! Matt PS Anyone selling a cheap (working!) Disco? (i.e. <&#163;1500?)

    Free France trip anyone?

    Well....almost! OK, here's the situation. We have 2 vehicles that need to go to France. SWMBO is refusing to drive as it is too far on the wrong side of the road, and too scary on the motorway! So..we have her BMW stuck in the UK and I need to get it to France. I looked at a car transporter...

    m.p.g dhse hse??

    Don't forget people come in here when there is a problem with their vehicle to find a solution. You are not going to get many people posting saying that their vehicle is running fine! Matt

    Landyzone Offroading Weekend

    I'm just putting a message in here to subscribe to the thread cos I am lazy and I can't be bothered to figure out how to do it without entering a message! July '07 you say...hmmm...I might have been able to negotiate a LR vehicle purchase by then! ... So do we get a discount for being in France...

    m.p.g dhse hse??

    19 would be good for the HSE, figure 12-18 more normal, from my DSE I could get 30 if I was careful, 27 was more normal - tho I did get 36 once following a lorry at 56mph, but that was a one off! Matt

    mpi conversion

    Don't think you'll find anyone in here with an MPI! Sell the MPI and buy a Tdi - will be a far cheaper option long term. Matt
