Due to the roads I travel to/from work, I need to fit some auxillary driving lights for range down country lanes. Initally, I plan to use a pair of 8" units mounted on the bumper but I'm not sure what manufacturer to go with for price/quality. Ring and Wipac appear cheap and poor quality so...

So after reading all that, I still can't get the friggin' fan unit off - 300Tdi and I made a tool to lock up the water pump pully and the whole belt slips when I tw*t it with a hammer. Two questions - Which way should I be tw*tting the spanner (I assume to the right:rolleyes:) Where do I...

I'm new to this LR game and seriously questioned my logic when my Disco too was a real disappointment. EGR blanked off, changed filters, cleaned intercooler, fitted de-cat pipe and whilst some made moderate improvements, it still had little power than expected. Paid £140 to a fella to sort it...

I have searched and read the many threads regarding diff oil and I'm somewhat confused what I should/should not use in the diffs on my 300Tdi manual Disco:croc: EP90 seems to be the prefered oil but I can only find this in Halfrauds at silly money and other auto factors at similar prices, all...

Yeah I worked that one out but I reckon I should be able to sell the snorkel and buy a replacement wing for the same price. The numb nuts who fitted the snorkel removed the air filter box and so had no filtration:doh: Ebay here it comes:)

Well, I've owned my P plate 300Tdi Disco for about 6 weeks now and done the following - EGR removal Stage 1 tune (15 psi of boost @2000rpm) De-cat pipe New oil/air/fuel filters and new engine oil Just waiting for the wheel nuts to fit the 135/80/16 road bias tyres to replace the Insa Turbo...

Well, took the Disco to him today. Really impressed, runs a couple of off roaders and transformed my vehicle. Top guy, top results and in my opinion, money well spent. Rob

Has anyone seen/have one of these- http://www.4x4at.com/product_info.php?id=5600&cid=2&product_id=40 They look quite a neat unit but I wonder what the beam quality is like. Cheers Rob

Neat reg. plate on ya Disco, must have cost a fortune but the MOT man might pull you on the background colour and font:) Happy fishing

Having read the various previous threads on tyres, I can't find any answers to my question - What size should I fit to standard 300Tdi alloys, taking into consideration - Road noise Grip (road use only) Longevity I have a set of modulars with Insa Turbo Saharas which I plan to use in the...

Wish I could fabricate/weld:doh: Just been quoted 500 quid to fit a new set of sills, I still have to buy the sills and pay VAT on top:mad: Rob

I went to pick up a set of alloys for my Disco and got talking about power problems which my 300Tdi suffers. Did the EGR blanking plate and cleaned up the intercooler with minimal improvement. The fella said he had the same problem and contacted - The Derv Doctor He sorted out the fuelling...

Why are wheel nuts for alloys so expensive and where is the best place to buy them? I've seen 'em on Ebay but some sharks are charging £15 for carriage and the nuts look ropey to say the least? Cheers Rob

Intercooler flush - I guess that's simply remove the top bar across the radiator/intercooler and it lifts out once the top/bottom hoses are disconnected, correct? Cheers Rob

Sounds a good idea but by the time I get there, it will be dark!!

I leave home at 05:30 and for the first 10-15 miles is sluggish and appears to lack torque. When it's nice and warm, it drives like a dream and pulls like a train. Any idea's - 300Tdi EGR removed Snorkel fitted (but some tool also removed air filter) Cheers Rob

Still going through me new Disco seeing what's there and what isn't and just found that the sedimentor has been removed. I'm guesing that this is/was there as a pre-filter. Is it worth getting a unit from a scrapper and fitting one or can I just change the fuel filter more frequently? Ta...

Yep, sorry for the lack of details - 1996 300Tdi Disco, 131k miles. On Fleabay there are new downpipes for £19.00 so I guess they're all pretty much the same. Just a bit wary of shearing the allen bolts, Cheers Rob

Just fitted an EGR blanking plate and a tad dissapointed as everyome seems to rave about the improvement. Ah well, next job is a de-cat down pipe. I've had a look and it seems easy enough but do I take the new down pipe to the local exhaust/tyre shop fit or do it myself? It looks like I need...

Hi All, I tried a search and was overwhelmed by the results.... Will TD5 wheels fit a mk 1 Disco? Ta muchos Rob
