    Sunglasses holder

    Anyone had any experience of fitting a non-landrover sunglass holder (in place of the grab handle)? Something like this: RENAULT LAGUNA 2001-2005 SUNGLASSES HOLDER/ BOX | eBay

    Rear view mirror swap dimming to dimming with compass...

    You're both right - it is just a gimic - I'll not bother doing the swap Instead, can anyone recommend a small dash mountable compass? Hmm, perhaps some sort of level too - Then I can pretend I'm a proper offroader :-)

    Loud clunk noise full lock left or right...

    In the end I just replaced the bushes at both ends of the panhard rod The parts were around a tenner delivered. The 24mm spanner to fit in the tight space to hold the nut was £3.75 It just needed a litre of plusgas and elephantine leverage to undo the nuts and bolts. Then it cost me...

    Rear view mirror swap dimming to dimming with compass...

    I want to swap the simple dimming rear view mirror (from an ES premium) with a dimming+compass rear view mirror (from an ES). First, I'm not sure why the ES 'premium' seems to have a lesser mirror than the ES - is it lesser or am I missing something? Second, is the swap straight forward...

    Loud clunk noise full lock left or right...

    She has 130miles on the clock and is showing wear - perhaps this is time to get a polybush set and replace everything in sight!

    Loud clunk noise full lock left or right...

    Yeah - definitely a clunk coming from the end of the panhard rod. Are the bushes there a leading indicator for something else to fail? Cheers

    Loud clunk noise full lock left or right...

    Cheers It turns out the noise can easily be recreated simply by going lock-to-lock whist stationary. I presume that being stationary precludes the liklihood of anything in the drive train.. I watched it a few times and the noise seems to come from the driver's end of the panhard rod...

    Loud clunk noise full lock left or right...

    I think the answer is - "Nope - You need to replace the offside front hub"... Both ways whilst turning at slow speed from left full lock to right full lock I am 'rewarded' with a very loud 'clunk'. It seems to be coming from the front driver's side. Other threads don't say just how loud...

    Linux(Ubuntu) + RAVE iso - YMMV...

    Does anyone know the rave converter file called freerave_1.36.rar? Allegedly it has the power to convert the locked pdf files to unlocked pdf files. If this really exists and works it would surely allow any Android device to read the files. I fear it was vapourware.

    What have you done to your Landie today.

    Put a new air suspension bag on my D2, then spent another hour taking it off and scratching my head wondering why it had not worked before putting it all back on scratching my head lots more and then carefully closing the rear door fully! Aaarggh!

    Soft on the corners...

    I found a flat car park and parked it next to another D2 which goes around corners ok. Bounced the front corners and she definitely wallowed around - rocking visbly side to side - a lot more so than the other one. So my diagnosis is shocks/dampers need replacing. I've not done the ACE...

    Soft on the corners...

    All noted - thanks I'll plug a Hawkeye in just to check this out and then go for a lie down under the car whilst other people turn the steering wheel and push the wheels around Thanks!

    Outdoor Storage cover

    Thanks for all the advice - I reckon Halfords and Amazon will be getting my money soon :-) In fact I reckon the dehumidifier will be great for the other car through the winter - those pesky passengers do so like to breathe! :) Before I do rush to Halfords are there any heart felt opinions on...

    Soft on the corners...

    It has ACE - any suggestions on how to investigate that (would a hawkeye help? ) Also a couple of pointers on dampers would be helpful as I know little about them (!) And i'm away from a proper computer for a while Thanks for the start.

    Soft on the corners...

    Doh! I should have stated that - Yes. Iv also been lucky enough to compare the drive with another D2 with the same setup and tyres with similar tread (good 9mm) She seems to wallow or just feel unstable.

    Soft on the corners...

    What are the likely reasons for a discovery 2 to feel 'squidgy' as she goes into a bend? She's running on 18" Grabber AT's on a normal (rear air suspension) setup - she just feels 'wrong' when she goes round the bends. Is there anything I should think about to make her 'firmer'?

    Outdoor Storage cover

    I need to store my poor old D2 at a local farm for winter. As you may know she's not well and I won't have the weather to work on her until Spring. She's not out in the middle of a field but I think she needs some protection from the elements. Can any of you helpful people recommend a...

    Linux(Ubuntu) + RAVE iso - YMMV...

    I was struggling to get RAVE CDs/ISOs working on my linux pc so I surfed the net but all I found was other people asking the same question. I worked a little harder and stumbled across a solution which I spelled out in my post - which was meant to be a 'howto' So, I get it - I posted this...
