Thanks! However i have discovered a "high top" cover for my existing trailer which increases it's capacity 75% so i will go for that (i also fear i would go under a low bridge or car park entrance with a hard top on the roof!):o

Hi all! Can anybody recommend a roof box for my landrover discovery 2 please. And do i need any special type of fixing? We have a trailer but we also need a roof box due to 3 kids, 2 adults and a dog along with a mountain of camping gear! Cheers all:D

I am! but whoever buys my old one is going to be better off!!! As it's not only the ACE i have had replaced. :). brakes, exhaust, airbags........ Not a good buy and i was stupid enough to spend about £4000 putting it right. BUT i am still a Land Rover fan and have bought a newer model (2004...

I had to replace the whole ace system in my old discovery £1200 to replace!:eek: My new discovery does'nt have it and i see very little difference, only a little more roll but frankly £1200!!!!! better off without it.

Thank you all. I am going to try the taking the inner gubbings off the door and gently knocking a piece of wood first, if that does'nt work im going to use a co2 extinguisher and a hairdryer!!!!!! I will let you know my results. :rolleyes:

Ta! So if i take the internal door gubbings off then it's straight down to the skin? i thought it would be double skinned? If not then to repair should be fairly easy with my trusty rubber hammer. However, i did like the compressed air and hairdryer method, might just give it a go!!!

Hello all, Some oik has decided it would be wise to either kick or knee my drivers door causing a large dent, the paint is not damaged and the crease is about 12" across I dont want to pay a fortune to get it fixed nor do i want to claim on the insurance, i have noticed a few diy things about...

Thanks! I've read the article and it helped alot. :)

Thanks, the warning light is only orange at the moment so i will contact a dealer and get it fixed before it goes red! as for the airbag light, it usually does not come on unless somebody plays with the drivers seat so i may just risk that unless of course it's cheap to fix

'evnin all, My ACE warning light has just illuminated today, going to orange (not red). I have checked the fluid level and it is full (serviced only 1000 miles ago). Before i take it to a garage is there any simple checks i should make myself??? Whatever the problem is it does not appear to...

Thanks for the advice. I may just pop off to the local landy garage at some stage to let them have a look incase it is the beginning of something bigger. If it does turn up anything and i can find this thread again i will update accordingly

lets say i am travelling down a potholed track, when i brake the pedal bounces along with the motion of the braking car if you get what i mean, it freaks me out a bit but the car still breaks, it just feels as if something is loose but as you say its probably normal. Certainly when it was last...

Chaps (and chapesses) If i drive over sightly rough roads and brake the brake pedal really kicks. Is this normal? The brakes pads/discs are fine and it does stop without a problem but the wobble in the pedal is a bit concerning. This only happens on bumpy surfaces, flat road are no problem...

Thanks, in that case i will suffer the very poor turning circle until i get it serviced, fortunatly i have only had the vehicle a week so fingers crossed i have not done to much damage. :eek:

That's what i thought at first but if i do pull harder it does turn. For info i have been "experimenting" turning aand it only really seems to happen when i turn right, so it could be i suppose something mechanical. I am getting it serviced next month at a main dealer so i will get them to...

Gents, Thanks for all your help, i have checked and the tyres do not seem to be rubbing on the body. I am still confused by this swivel thing so i will bite the bullet and buy a manual unless somebody brighter than me (does'nt take much) can show me a picture of the one i need to adjust...

:confused: good god i really am that thick! i still have no idea what you mean, but tomorrow i will have a look at the wheels and see if i can find this bolt and swivel thing. My next entry will be from my hospital bed after i mess with the swivel thing then drive away and the wheels fall...

steering stops? see i knew you would get all technical on me. Best i buy a manual so i can understand this language of technical whizzy things

see i reply without properly reading your reply! I have found the tyre fitting guider with a search as you recommended. Thanks again:o

Bugger, and they are fairly new! What size would you recommend? Thanks
