    Another Landy

    Bought a Disco 2 facelift. Despite having new MOT it needed new power steering box new discs and calipers new caliper hangers and drop links. Drivers seat needs re upholstering and a few minor paint blemishes need sorting. Biggest issue is power. It crawls up hills. What do I need to look at...

    Sounds like I broke it

    :( Something isnt right with this. It feel like the back wheels are steering and it wanders all over the road. Trouble is since I recently was seperated I just dont have the money to get it looked at. I wondered if there is anyone not far from Glossop who could look at it for me and let me...

    brake crunch

    Its a bit alarming when you put your foot on the break and it feels like you are crushing eggs inside a carboard box, and still not stopping. The sound is like trying to stop with disc pads that are worn to the metal. The calipers have all been serviced or changed and the pads are only...

    in search of power

    Nothing to do with extra power, I just need the discovery to work normally and it has no power at all. Pulls like a dead cart horse. Having had feedback from people on here I took it for a service 100 quid blown for no result. Took it to a landrover "specialists" garage, lots of...

    Where is all the oil coming from?

    When my discovery starts you can hear what I assume to be the Turbo whistleing, (1994 es 300tdi ). As you (slowly) accelerate so does the whistle. Then when you check under the bonnet guess what? Oil... sprayed everywhere. It seems to have flooded the pipes to the intercooler covered the entire...
