I think in America you call them owner operators

Kerosene is a non lubricative class C2 28sec burning oil. It is mostly used for oil fired central heating in pressure jet and vapourising burners. Gas oil (red diesel) is a lubricative oil in class D 32 sec. Derv (diesel engine road vehicles) also known as white diesel (for use in our cars)...

Yeah, done all of the obvious. Starting to think it's water in the multi-function unit. Now have self operating hazard lights to add to the party!!

Yes, the return is on the pump. It does look a bit stupid on that last injector.

The back one is actually blanked off, the pipe you're talking about, that is too short, is a breathing pipe for the transfer box or the gearbox.

I've got a 300TDi '97 Disco. Alarm problems are as follows: When I lock it with the key fob the alarm beeps twice as if a door is open somewhere, if you lock it by turning the key or pressing a button inside the car, the button pops back up. The interior lights stay on sometimes and then...

I reckon it's got to be thumbelina ................. who else could it be from Fairyland, uh........... Tom ....... (thumb)?!

Perhaps somebody should just turn him into a flat tw@t!

A little jap crap story for you. One day when her indoors let me out with the cheque book to fetch a radiator for the Rangie, I came back home with a Toyota Surf (what a TW@T!). I was in a mentally retarded state and was never let out with the cheque book again! When I went across fields in...

I'll have four please. Let us know when you want the money and where to send it to.

You are best getting a genuine LR part, it will probably last longer. Smear some grease around them before you slide the half shaft through.

Yes you can take off the caliper and undo the 6 bolts, don't forget to pull out the abs sensor. Where the hub joins the axle there is an oil seal in there, that is what will be leaking. Do not undo the big nut in the end of the hub, it is tightened to something like 260nM and if you disturb...

Don't do it!! Don't join the slitty brigade! I strayed from the path of LR in a state of poor mental health just over a year ago...............this is what you get.... (see pic). I had to keep rescuing it from a muddy field with a Range Rover! Even got stuck on the lawn at home!:eek:

Ciao Alessandro Benvenuto al sito! Qui trovi di tutto. Se hai bisogno di aiuto, basta chiedere. Buon divertimento:D Viva l'Italia!!!!

Hi Stuart, Ours does it too. It isn't an un-common problem with some diesel engines. I have had it in some Scania trucks in the past too. It doesn't seem to cause any problems. I wouldn't worry about it too much. Phil

Hi Tony, You can actually buy the wheel bearings. they are £60 each from www.paddockspares.com. However, you need a big press 25 tonne minimum to press them out of the hub. I did all 4 on mine last year. I had to get a 3/4 plate and make a special bracket to fit the hub into the press...

Re: high engine temp Matt is right in saying the two fans need to be running. If it's a hot day and your air con is drawing a lot of heat out of the vehicle, the heat builds up in the condenser which is in front of the radiator causing the behicle to run at slightly higher temperatures. The...

You haven't explained exactly where the shuddering is coming from. At a rough guess it sounds as if it's the engine starved of fuel. When was the last time you changed your fuel filter? You could also be sucking in air into your fuel system. When you put your foot down, the pump is calling...

Good news and Bad news! Good news - you can get the bearings for £60 ish each from Paddocks. Bad news - tools required: a bloody big press, a hot spanner, special home made steel plates 3/4inch thick to hold the hubs (it still bent the plates!), torque wrench(bearings need to be torqued to...

Had exactly the same problem with mine. Started off with a whirring noise until it finally refused to lock. Took the lock out of the door, it is held in with torque screws. You can take it to bits, but be very careful, there's an electric motor and some gearing inside. The grease dries up...
