Thanks for the support guys, I am sure I will get it sorted out at some point, it’s the second time I have had this happen, my Disco is the only thing I salvaged from a divorce, it has been well maintained, you don’t see many examples on the road today, I always get comments that its in good...

Hi James, I am going to take it in to the garage that carried out the work, I will explain what you say it could be, the prop was removed as was the gearbox to replace the TB oil seal and clutch, do you have to refit the prop as where it was split, as you have explained, there were a few...

Hi Guys Considering upgrading my shocks, I believe the gas filled shocks are good, any other mods I can do to improve ride and general suspension. Don't have the cash to buy another so may as well spend it on the one I have. Any suggestions would be welcome. Mike22 Discovery V8...
