    What have you done to your Landie today.

    Tried some baby talcum power on the noisy 300 tdi serpentine belt, very effective.

    What have you done to your Landie today.

    Discovery 300tdi: Removed the (lhd) drivers side door interior light switch to find that the wire has corroded and snapped off, said wire is now hidden deep inside the door pillar, I've no idea how to retrieve it. I've tried shouting and swearing at it, but it didn't work.

    Took the bearing out of the squealing AC on the 300tdi, I just have to find n buy a replacement one now. Fixed the knackered and horrible sagging drivers seat with nylon cord and a few giant tie wraps. The nylon clip nut thing on one of the rear window mechanism fell apart and i couldn't find...

    Not today really, it were at the weekend. Changed the throttle cable, since it was somewhat knackered. Fitted a new (used) dickie seat cos it was missing one. Cleaned up (scraped the crud & rust off) the front diff (to check out the damage i did after i drove into a rock the size of a fiat...

    auto gearbox temp sensor.........

    I changed mine recently as it would randomly come on. You'll find it on the oil pipe a couple of inches before it goes into the oil cooler, the part number is AMR 4948, I bought one from ebay since the paddocks price was tad high.

    small list of jobs!

    The cracking is what's called a dry solder joint. Just re-solder it, which is heat it until the solders melts and add a little bit of new solder and its done. Be careful not to use to much heat else you could damage the track or the component, it should take less than 3 seconds to do.

    I did the rear windows fix on my wife's motor and then a friends motor a few weeks ago, the dry joint is the one which I've circled one your photo below, if you look closely it will be cracked all the way around it.

    Lots of reading of old threads and some helpful pms to forum members and it turns out that you can't just exchange the green box (AMR4886) even tho its a like for like fit. The green box and fob need to be synced up with the ecu by someone who knows their way around testbook. (The only land...

    Amr 4886

    Thanks, the boxes look like for like, I've checked the plugs and cables and can't find any problems there. I've spend the last several hours searching then re-reading threads. I found one thread which says that because this is a fly by wire motor that the edc / edu has the immobiliser built...

    Yep, its a 300tdi auto so there's no spider behind the dash. (from what i read). I guess i'm just trying to figure out what else i need to do after swapping over the AMR4886 green box n fob. (press the fob three times with one eye closed while standing on one leg and randomly stabbing the...

    I tried searching but couldn't find an answer. We're pretty sure that the AMR4886 on my mates 96 300tdi auto is intermittently goosed, so i bought a used one and a fob from a nice chap on this here forum. Today was the 1st chance I had to fit it, which only took a few minutes. The new...
