My P38 was delivered to me yesterday afternoon and overall I am pleased with it although it is being a typical Range Rover already. How long does an early 4.6 normally take to warm to normal operating temperature? Mine seems to warm up alarmingly fast. I have only driven her up the farm track...

Hello all I have just purchased a 1995 4.6hse and it has been straight piped by the previous owner. I haven’t got her home yet and she needs an MOT before she can be used. With the centre silencer straight piped but the back box remaining is it likely to be too loud for MOT?

Copying across from Strata Florida Facebook page. Stranded D2 in need of a rear calliper to drive it home. I have advised to clamp of the the flexi to the wheel. Obviously it would be better if it had a working callipers. Unfortunately having never owned one I have no D2 parts whatsoever

Ive just finished dropping a different lump into my 300tdi EDC discovery and have found I have some floating wires left and I am trying to work out where they go. When someone points them out I will probably feel like a prat but there you are. Second issue is that I may have tried to start her...

I'm sure i'm not the only one who would like to take advantage of the fact there are going to be a lot of Landyzoners in one place next weekend. So please feel free to use this thread to make your own pleas to other LZers. I really hope that someone may be able to bring an extra wheel with...

High there people I would very much appreciate some assistance extricating my 90. I took it into one of our fields to collect fire wood and it was kind of a lot wetter than I thought. The result being my 90 is now stuck up to its axles. I've tried to extract it with my L200 but it wont do it...

I just picked this beasty up this morning. She is reasonably tidy under the mud and dust. Body is straight, interior is good bar headliner and chassis seems solid but will need closer inspection. She does have some issues though. Blue smoke that is non turbo related and problems with the...

My neighbour was widowed some months ago and has offered me to buy either of her two of her 3 land rovers. The lady in question has no idea of their value and I don't want to take advantage of her some I am after some idea as what would be a fair price to offer and which one to buy. 1. N reg...

Hi people I have come to the decision that it is time to sell on my stop gap car now that my auto car disco will be on the road within the next two weeks. Fitted with a front tubular winch bumper - no winch fitted. This car is now just sitting as I do not have the time to do the work it needs...

I'm currently working on a project to convert my 1998 Disco 1 auto to petrol v8 power. The reasoning is simple the TDI in it is knackered and I don't like diesels anyway. I'd be much happier with a petrol engine so far I can see 3 viable options 3.5 with carbs 3.9EFI or TVR V8, but somehow I...

parked my car up and locked it as normal. Went back to it an hour or so later and found a black star shaped air fresh net hanging from my mirror. I didn't put it their and don't own such a thing but the doors were all still locked. Tagged for theft?

You lot are all to blame. You persuaded me to buy another disco rather than a freelander. So I did. Then I went to landyzone bash and had a fantastic time. You lot made me want to use my disco properly and now look what you've done. Yellow90 made me need a new front bumper so I couldn't...

1. I just drove it 205 miles and used 22L of Diesel, that more than 40mpg. :car: 2. My back is one piece as I have nice comfy seats :p 3. I don't have earache cause my discos not noisy. 4. I was not having to drive stupidly slowly and was having no problem keeping up with traffic. Once she is...

Went to help another lzer and mines just boiled over on route. I am still on the tarmac just outside llanllwni

I got back late last night from this event and must say what a cracking weekend, great food, great site, and great people. Sadly I was riding shotgun for the weekend as my own Landy broke down late Thursday evening and with the event starting Friday I simply didn't have time to fix it. So I...

I'll put the rest of my photos up in a thread tomorrow but for now lets have a quick laugh at those who got stuck over the weekend. There is one other that got stuck but I didn't get the photo Yellow90 gets a special award for the most times stuck and the stupidess getting stuck. The latter of...

We are sitting in services with electrical problems

I intend to turn this thread into a step by step guide as to how to change the head gasket on a 300TDI engine as so far I can't find one on the forum. Im currently doing one at the moment but have run into a slight problem and am after a little advice. The problem is such down pipe studs have...

A week or so ago my 300tdi disco started getting hot under load. I stopped let her cool down and discovered she'd emptied her expansion tank. So I refilled her and carried on with no further overheating. Went to go home again and noted that the expansion tank was down again so filled her up a...

I have been offered a 100k 2.5 6cyl turbo diesel from a vauxhall omega which I believe is the same engine as used in the P38 Range Rover. Now I have a 300TDI auto Disco 1 here that is poorly in the engine department but otherwise in good order and this seemed a pottential engine swap that might...
