Tis surely logical?? And if black insulation tape doesn`t match the interior some brown woody plastic could be stuck on, or if doing serious off.roading some really macho duck-tape would do a good job... and it`s waterproof for those deeper water crossings!

Check the tyre fitment sticky at top of Disco page. Seems 265/75 16 need more mods to body than 245/75 16s. I have a set of 245/75 16s fitted to my 300tdi and didn`t need any mods to rear, but had to pull front bumper forward (to repair/straighten previous minor knocks) to get clearance. Quite...

Since the light means nothing, because the EAS is removed, why not disconnect the light?? Or modify it with a piece of black insulation tape artfully arranged to hide it from view?

Do you have the EKA (emergency key access) code? Lots of threads on this. Code normally only available from LR dealers after you show proof of ownership.

When you bleed the brakes do it as per RAVE. It really does make a difference. Rasheed and Datatek are right that changing the accumalator is done to death in RAVE, but the bleeding procedure does need to be followed. And unless anyone knows differently it needs two people.

Price is dependant on condition more than anything. Read up on EAS problems and visit the www.rswsolutions site. Take it for a LONG test drive and thoroughly check EAS, HEVAC, possible over-heating, as well as all the things you`d check on other vehicles. Make sure it`s not had lots of recent...

Oil pressure light on usually means low oil pressure...That`s what it`s there for! It could be a faulty switch, as said, 5 minutes and coupla quid to replace... low oil pressure will result in major bills if not addressed quickly. Seems to me unlikely to be missing bolt as this would result in...

My money is with Sparky on a faulty driver pack. Mine behaved the same; deciding itself to change height for no apparent reason. I don`t know how to check for this apart from substitution tho`.

As above, but don`t ask how much "a lot" is ! Seems to me all the little bits can add up to quite a lot, but try to see how much is in each component: Easier said than done with gearbox/transferbox, and the morse chain in the transfer box can stretch a lot before failure. Axles/props are easier...

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder etc. 16" & 18" both offered as new. Both work well. Maybe 18" a little better on road, stiffer side walls. Maybe 16" a little better off, better bump absorption. Most people, in most cases, wouldn`t notice much difference between the two IF they`re properly...

Datatek, Until we have a system when people have to take an exam before having a license to have children, kids are gonna be born to bad parents. They won`t be taught right from wrong. I don`t think our society would wear licensing yet. So we need the state to take a greater part in educating...

Fur Trapper as a foreigner you obviously ain`t up on some English cultural matters. But we`ll forgive you. Correct response to "What have the Romans ever done for us?", after half an hour of preamble, should be summat like "Yeah, but, apart from the roads, sanitation, clean-water...

Yes Island4x4 are on ebay, but go to them direct for a much better deal. (less overheads). Start with a new pump and re-con your old one yourself, as a spare?

Bloody Romans! Coming over here ! An` what have they ever done for us ?

Sounds like good advise to me. Seem to remember a method with a voltmeter: check readings between battery positive and various parts of system, should be consistent reading between positive and chassis or pos/block or pos/starter body, where there`s a difference shows which is the faulty earth...

Jamie you say "there`s no quick fix", then say say "round them all up" etc. Sounds like a quick fix to me. And who`s them?? The kids of 1st generation immigrants? Or maybe 2nd or 3rd generation too? How long until we find an immigrant in your family tree? Many recent immigrants are doing work...

Careful damlimey; his neighbours will send him off to the guillotine if they think that`s his intention!

Suggest you don`t touch the HEVAC without reading up a bit first. Look for threads on "blend motors". The matrix could be hot but the air isn`t being blown thro them into the car. Trust nowt wrong on HEVAC display. Are fans responding when in manual mode? Looking at pollen filters good first...

Check with Irishrover first but I don`think there`s any shortcuts on this one. (and did mean Irishrover not Irishranger sorry). He has lots of elec knowledge and experience including BECMs etc so can give a definative answer rather than my best guess!

I`m pretty sure yes, only main dealer,,but suggest a p.m. to Irishranger will confirm this. (he does know more about these things than me, or most of us). Don`t be tempted by cheapo ones off ebay or where-ever that come with no code plugged in!
