Hello- have just swapped the engine and box from another disco into my daily driver. (300tdi- manual) Both 96 models and the engine turns over but wont fire. I know the new engine is bang on , but there's no fuel at injectors when cranking. Am suspecting the immobiiser system at the fuel pump...

Yep- look ****e without them. After new sills, refitted mine with black self tappers and big black washers - loaded the small holes and unseen part of sill with waxoyl before though and put a plastic spacer between to let any water trapped run out. best part is, being screws- you can whip em off...

Just converted a 3 door ****-kicker-spec disco to leccy windows- The holes for the rails/ whole lectric assy were all already there. Dont think there was any extra holes for in the door shell for manual regulators- no piccies am afraid!

Cheers for the replies, gents!

Dunno much about fuel pumps so wondering if you could shed some light..? My mate has turned up the pump on my 96 300tdi but i cant remember which way he did it! Like the extra go but MOTs lurking and could do with losing some of the smoke! It was a long screw on the back side of the pump with a...

Go for the kit- it's an arse to do so you might as well while you're in there. Door trims held on with plastic push lugs- they break easy -probably why the panels you have were held on with tape. New lugs/ clips are available from landy parts suppliers or ebay. Back door hinges may look fine but...

Primed them a few more times when i got home and all is well.. with the shocks at least! thanks!

You should beable to pick up the bits cheaper than that on ebay or summat- there's loads about being broken up and outer panels aren't worth much- bonnet should be 50 quidish at the most- if you shop about you'll most likely find one in the right colour too-even if its a bit dearer, you'll save...

Cheers- i did extend them all fully a couple of times but i'll try it a bit more see if that makes any difference.

Hello all- Just bought 4 new shocks for my 300tdi. Britpart. Got them out of the box and the resistance doesn't feel equal on either pair-ie one of the rear's feel stiffer on compression than the other and same story withe fronts.. is this normal.. even for britpart? thanks in advance!

I have a set of 4 pug 205 1.9 gti type (not the smaller 1.6 type)speed lines in very good nick with 2 good tyres on ( think the other two are goosed). With centre caps. Used to have em on my 405 so should fit most pug 4 stud. 100 quid. For the set. Also have a few other 405 bits.. New, gen...

Just to update.. Seats are in.. Easy peasy really- just drilled out the pins on the brackets on which the seats adjust for height, opened them up an knocked in some angled ally channel. Bolted this up where the pins were and dropped whole lot ont a piece of 5mm ally checker plate. Then just...

Theres loads of stuff it cud be.. Loose pads is a good bet. Gearlinkages can ckick too.. Mine turned out to be a knackered front shock bush. I could rattle the whole shock about with my hand! (i still can tbh- havnt got round to it!)

Had the full dash loom out the ES and av decided its beyond me.. Dont wanna **** about too much with the loom as its as yet an unmolested non-buggered-about with car. Plan is now to mount the leather seats on the 3 door frames and runners, lose the motors underneath and just find live to run the...

Apologies if this has been covered before but I cant seem to find owt that answers my particular question.. Av just finished welding a new front end onto a 96' 3 door disco and after a coat of paint the front end is looking pretty mint..pics to follow on another fred) Now he's eyeing up a set of...

Mine does the same and I've done the same as yo to try rectify it bar getting rid of the sedimenter.. Goes great when its warm though will be interesting to hear any suggestions (I just put it down to it bein an old diesel!)

Thats a 'no', then..

I did that- thanks anyway though! Really it needs both front wings doing- and the front body mounts so would be a dear-do! Seen the d2 front ends for anything between 99p and £200. If they don't fit I,ll make some-was just trying to save some fab-time/ ****ing about!

Good stuff- glad you got sorted. Now crack open a tinny!

Anybody know if a D2 front end - innerwings, front panel, slam panel etc will go onto a D1? About to start welding one up for a friend but seen quite a few complete D2 front clips on ebay which would make life easier- if they fit.. Will the D1 outer wings fit back on ok and are the body mounts...
