Hi Chaps, Quick update on the state of play. I crawled through the large pool of water and gave every thing a dem good soaking in a product called Releaseall, stipped out the cabin gubbins as suggested repeated said soaking and that it certainly did. The lever moved side ways, felt like the...

Hi, Does yours have the Fog/Driving lights in the front Valence? Cheers Chris

Mine is desperate until you hit 1700 RPM then the Turbot kicks in and with the rather large Alisport intercooler it goes like the clappers. Sorry to ask the silly question but when mine was slower than the sinclair C5 the injectors were totally gummed up and the lift pump was toast, are yours...

Rain stopped play and I have no garage/barn in which to work, will give it a go next week now copious amounts of oil made low to hi selection much easier :) C

Did these sell afterwards?

Previously I had owned Toyota HiLux, Ford Explorer's (v v comfy but crap off road), and a 4.0 High output Cherokee The fella my dad works for has had his 1996 Disco 300tdi Auto from new and it goes like a train with over 200k on the clock. Thought lets give it a bash. Well 2k in repair...

@biolandy I love working on mine :) It has brought an entirely new lexicon of swear words and pirate like curses that are usually accompanied by scuffed knuckles, oily stuff on the driveway and the missus making sleep in the spare room until I no longer smell of Landrover and have clean up...

excellent, that sounds like a good next step. Sadly Hayes is very lacking in this area. I'll give that a go later this evening and see how we get on. I have to say that while the amount of problems on the disco are largely down to the previous owner being a weasel, I do love working on it as...

Hi Chaps and before anyone starts I have already done numerous searches :p I'm following the advice laid down by numerous bearded and sage like members who have gone before. I've WD40'd the linkages after crawling under the Disco and adding an extra arm joint. Still seems to be stuck, low...

This is very true, I struggle with most multi storey places, when I have my rack on I'm a shade over 7 foot so it's a nightmare. Good luck with that, my Diff Lock is stuck and won;t engage so that's next on my list :-) Cheers C

So what's the progress with the baja style rack? If you can get a low slung (he he) one so that I can sort of fit into some sort of car parks then I'm in the market for that baby! Good work altogether stu! very inspirational. Time to buy a welding kit :-) Cheers Chris

If you are still stuck get your self up to Paddy Buckley in Mallow (every one knows him) he's a whizz with anything with a Land Rover badge. He will take the **** becuase of the freelander but ignore that. He worked wonders on my Disco! Cheers C
