    Coolant leak, heater hoses?

    My 200tdi has had a coolant leak for a bit now to the point where it needs a topping up every day!! :mad: I'm pretty sure it's one of the heater hoses at the back of the engine near the bulkhead. When I was trying to find the leak earlier, I ran the engine for a bit to warm the coolant up, then...

    Wireing a light bar

    For my light bar (which has 2 round lamps atm, which actually looks nice), I ran the cable up the side of the windscreen under the trim then drilled a hole in the roof under the gutter, silicolned that, then ran straight into the light bar, I also used a spade connector on the there so I can...

    Bent drag link, please read!

    Bent my drag link today on my 200tdi (wish I had got a steering guard ), but for the new one, would it be worth sliding a piece of beefy steel tube over it? Anyone this before or got any other strengthening suggestions? Cheers!

    Full with intercooler...

    If I were to replace the standard IC with a full width front mounted one (since there's loads of space between the rad and grille), would it affect the radiators cooling ability?

    Anyone? No? Well another question, would it fail an MOT?

    Dicky reverse switch on D1 (lt77)

    When I got my 200 disco a while back, the reverse light wasnt plugged into the switch on the gearbox, so after removing the switch and cleaning it and soaking with WD40 it works when I press it with it in my hand, but the moment its put into the gearboz I can't seem to adjust it properly. It...

    200Tdi Disco - What Stereo?

    I changed my head unit not long ago in my 200, it was tight with the leads at the bottom, but you just have to tuck them out the way round the side and force the bastard down, it can be done. Keep trying!

    what you all think of my td5

    Hmm, not sure myself, I'd prefer it lifted on huuuuuuuuuge mud tyres WITHOUT the wind deflectors and with more spotlights. My opinion remains unchanged on ALL 4x4s, only have a 4x4 for offroad or going round tracks. Not for the sake of being big. That's why my D1 is modded for going offroad...

    Which tyre size for Disco

    Get some 235 85s man!! I put some on my disco on disco steels a few months back, can't fault em. Pirelli scorpion muds, barely used, set of 4 off a mate for 150 squids. I do always get nervous about low car parks though with the roof bar and everything though! All I had to do was trim the back...

    Most Redundant Gift for a LR Series Owner...

    Woa there!! I used to have fluffy dice in my series 3!! More of a **** take really.

    Hardtop or ragtop...

    As I'm contemplating replacing the disco with a series with a TDi when the disco dies, what's everyones opinion on hard vs softop. I've heard that softops are quieter and warmer in good condition, which is believable as my hardtop 88 that I used to have was noisy as fook till I drove round...

    200Di running and outputs...

    And that's using a 200tdi and series box with standard diffs you say? Also, how much hassle is it to put disco axles on a series 3? I'd just like the disc brakes and wider track.

    200Di running and outputs...

    Although I'm currently driving the disco after selling the series 3 for practicality reason, I'm thinking that eventually when 200 disco falls apart I'd like use the engine without the turbo in a series 3 as well as using the disco axles and the standard series 3 box. I'm just wondering what...

    Light bar wiring...

    Done it now and all works well. Used a 25amp fuse and 27amp wire and no fires! Cheers for the help guys. Think it just need better earths and proper ampage wire that's all, looks better now an all. Cheers!
