Hey, be honest- does it do your head in after a while? I actually want to hear my v8 now the bloody tapping has gone! (just fitted new cam/tappets/chain) There aren't many off shelf options for the v8 disco- just the darn expensive full milltek sports or the double S which looks no different...

If a pushrod feels loose and disconnected is it a sign of a bad lifter? All the others move and down smoothly (with the rockers off). Cheers

Been there, done that... had twin janspeeds on my 3.1! :D

Hmmm, been through them all, only freeloader & P38's listed. Guess they've been discontinued.

where can you get those? RPI only sell the full system & bloody expensive The double S ones for the disco look a bit lame in the pics, no different to the standard job!? oh yeah, just managed to rip off my rusty old manifold without breaking a bolt, go me!

Had a read through me haynes this morning and it didn't make my headache any worse... I thought at least the heads would need to come off? Doing a bodge and just changing the tappets on the ticky side looks sooo tempting- just a matter of removing the inlet manifold/air cleaner/rockers and...

thanks, no way can I do it myself (ikea furniture is about my limit!). I've got a mate who's a mechanic and a garage I could borrow for a day at a push though. Could go against all the advice & not change the cam & chain- just the lifters & maybe rocker arms? (its done 94k) Cheers

I'm hoping a new manifold will solve the ticking problem on my disco... If it doesn't, how much would be a reasonable amount to have a new cam, chain & lifters fitted on a '93 3.5 disco? Anyone here done it themselves & have any words of wisdom? Happy new year!

Wheel Arch Kit 3 Door GAD044 Wheel Arch Kit 5 Door GAD042 Are they any good? Cheers!

Had two of them. First one (4.0 SE) suddenly drank all its coolant on a hill and toasted the engine; sold it as spares/repairs losing 2k in the process. Second one (4.6 HSE) I rebuilt the EAS valve block & compressor and changed two airbags to find it was a leaking hose. Also changed the blend...

As far as I understand, the later bosch engines seem to fail less often but they certainly still can! Whether thats because of better casting, more consistent running temps or that they're just newer I don't know- fair bit of BS going around me reckons! I've heard that the 4.6 slips slightly...

I fitted a "Double S" exhaust from rimmer bros on my P38 and it sounded absolutely bloody gorgeous. Not particularly loud but a nice deep burble. 287 quid though- probably more than my disco's worth!

Jobs a goodun! ECU didn't need re-programming so they didn't charge me for it. Screwed the ECU back in, pressed the new fob 3 times and wow- the locks go up and down and the indicators flash! I can even unlock it from the other side of the road, beat that :cool: Well impressed with the...

Hi, 60 for a new key (they can't rebuild the single button ones) and 20 for the ecu inc post/vat. Cheers for that discomania, I sent the ecu off yesterday so I'll just have to see what happens now... I guess if there's anything wrong with it they'll find out? I got rid of my p38 because of all...

Battery ain't going to work in mine- the fob has turned itself into a maraca! According to the remotekey geeks my immobiliser is still armed because the lights don't flash when I unlock the doors (or something) so I've got to send the ECU for re-programming for the new key. Means nothing to...

144 quid, cock! (as james may would say) Anyone tried this lot? http://www.remotekey.co.uk/key-fob-reconditioning/. They claim that none of the arsing around with programming is needed

Hiya, my '93 disco decided not to start out of the blue yesterday. AA man connected the battery directly to the starter and got it going. Since then its started fine! I think its related to my keyfob which stopped unlocking the doors (and the case is falling apart) the other day; I've had to...

Hi, im in barnet and looking for some lanes in herts as well. My rangie will be here mid-april so if you find any decent lanes... grant

as its only one indicator i suppose you've tried taking the actual light unit itself apart? before touching the nasty stuff take the light itself apart, check everythings ok, fit bulb in tightly, spray connectors with wd-40 etc i had a "BULB FAILURE" warning which was solved by this...
