Brake light switch turned up late yesterday managed to fit it but is a fiddly little thing This morning set my camera to watch turbo actuator as was very sluggish shouldn't have worried, power back no gongs no fault codes apart from camera, drove fine, I know it is only first test but it's the...

Yes mate thanks for you help and information always appreciated but still wish you were here, definitely have to replace brake light switch as first action, have removed it it's very stiff and gritty new one should then narrow down codes or maybe clear up although I doubt it Lol dynamics and...

Reading up this morning on brake light switch seems it can cause a multitude of issues and on this model is also part of speed limitation so ordered one different to D3 keeping fingers crossed but brake lights are permanently on so hopefully Checked turbo actuator arm veins free will check live...

Changed fluid today see color not light green lifeguard got about 3L out and in used 300ml syringe Reset to factory default, took force spin is better smoother but codes pinged back hdc abs etc Thinking at this point it Lan based issue rather than gearbox temperature, all seem to be...

Back on D3 motor Sunday fitted new belts, removed loom, and egrs ready for switch over Starting on switch over at weekend probably Yesterday haldex came fitted and refilled oil and changed oil too, recalibrated and bled system with diagnostic, gearbox oil this morning seems same as 8 speed...

terrafirma discs, toyed with brembos but unsure of transmission costs, but will most likely use them on my sdv6, have standard size brembos and ebc pads on my 2.7

Put sport on stands today and removed the haldex was about 50% clogged sludge no chunks put a multi meter on ohms should be 5-8 ohms I believe this one reads 11.8 so I'm thinking at this point pump is long gone, so ordered oem today Looked at replacing the haldex if necessary but will go the way...

Interesting journey to work and back drove starts and drives fine, for about two miles the you can feel a strange resistance from the wheels accompanied by hdc not available and aed not available I think didn't have glasses then two wheel drive only but continues to drive fine didn't have...

Started on tdv6 then it stopped raining so moved on to sport brakes, seemed quite straightforward as the fronts lots of rust and muck good clean up and pistons pushed back easily, handbrake pistons sit back beyond hydraulic pistons in service position, pumped up calipers seems to be no binding...

Thanks mate your a star will go through the information you sent, its always the finding of information i find most difficult bless you sure I'll be pestering you to clarify bits for me Lol 7mm allen key turned up so can get on with brakes later when it warms up a bit cold this morning Going to...

Think you were spot on @Firebobby1 handbrake diagnostic twice said not satisfied third time heard the motors run, got a successful message checked and pistons are indeed retracted I reckon they were indeed a little stuck all the best

Fitted front brakes this morning all went ok nothing seemed particularly seized all cleaned up and looks much better Was going to fit rears but 9mm allen key never turned up, took three attempts to put park brake into service mode, may have indeed been seized but pistons retracted now will be...

Bless you mate think I have found a sump will get you to check it out before I buy Yes I bought the same discs as you had ceramic rears but ebc front sorry for copying Lol if they were good enough for you Was too cold today decided to leave brakes until tomorrow so plucked up courage and...

Hi mate just got in from work all the brakes got hot fronts were probably hottest but stopped before too extreme free as a bird now, discs are fairly shot so will replace all and pads on order from maltings ebc pads, been informed that the sliders will seize without use so will check it all over...

Been a bit distracted over last day or two bought another project Discovery sport run sweet has gearbox overheating issue, tail gate not closing issue well fully anyway, brakes started to get hot last night so stopped and got my mate to collect me in his truck apart from gearbox passenger head...
