Got back Sunday night after a couple days cave driving in France. The place was intense. Glad I got my rocksliders on! Landy was great, didn't skip a beat. Did have a puncture this morning though but not bad considering! ImageShack Album - 43 images

God, it's one thing after another at the moment! haha. My diff is leaking really badly. When I bought it, the diff case has been covered in underseal - I wonder if it was rusty or whatever but it's finally started leaking. I can't see exactly where it's coming from - doesn't look like it's...

Is it worth getting a set of rock sliders and tree bars that DONT bolt onto the chassis outriggers? I've seen a nice pair for a decent price but there's no point me buying them if they will be useless. I'm mainly hoping to be able to reinforce my sills, protect my lower doors a little, cover...

I keep hearing a clattering noise from the front. I thought it was a wheel bearing but I've found out one of the pads it shaking and clattering around in the calliper. It's really loose! I only fitted them a few weeks ago. The brakes work fine. It all went together properly and I'm convinced...

I thought I might have a problem with my turbo not working quite properly so I fitted a boost guage last week. It only ever seems to get 0.75 bar of boost at 4k RPM - I thought this should be more like 1 bar. You can see the boost drop a little when it reaches "full" and the waste gate...

I've got some welding to do on the sills on my disco. I also want to permanently remove the plastic cover as we all know they are notorious at collecting dirt and moisture. Now I wondered if anyone has any ideas on how to "improve" my sills resillency. I thought about patching the corroded...

Will a 300 turbo fit a 200? I didn't know if there were any major differences. I think mines on it's way out (oil in intake pipes and vehicle is gutless) but I saw one on Ebay for a decent price.....

I'm looking for a couple of 750 R16 tyres for my landy steel rims - I've got tubed mud plugggas on at the moment but the rearmost tyres are quite worn and the side walls are seriously cracking.......I don't have a lot of cash spend so trying to avoid buying new. There's not much on fleabay but...

Hi guys, just servicing the disco - wanted to clean the sedimentor out as it's full of emulsion and doesn't look like it's been touched in ages. What the hell do I do to get it off? Haynes manual says "remove the bolt" which I assume is on top that you can't see. HAd a feel around and can't feel...

IT's been getting harder to change gear over the last few days in my disco. Now the pedal travel with almost no resistance a few inches and I have to push it all the way to the floor to get it to disengage. I checked the reservoir tonight and it looked empty, topped up to top (it was dark and I...

After some of the damage sustained at the weekend, I bought my self a bullbar from fleabay - got a built in steering guard too which is nice!

There's a loose connection on my heater fan blowers - it comes on and turns off when it feels like it. Plus you can see the lights dim so it's got to be a bad earth or short somewhere. Question is, before I start taking out the dash, what area am I looking at to find the possible cause? Don't...

Just got my Disco back from the garage. NSR disc brake contaminated with oil (from when I changed the seals and bearings, just needs some cleaning) NSF wheel bearing excessive play (this is one I did - must have bedded in!) OSF wheel bearing excessive play (never touched this one! Maybe it...

I've going to fit my new steels with mud plugger tyres soon - two of them are brand new and 3 are worn but still have plenty of tread. There is a difference of about 10-40 mm from the new to the old. Would you fit the new ones on the rear and the worns on the front or the other way round? I was...

Saw this on another forum and thought it might be worth posting: Please copy & paste this SCAM to every other forum you can! Hi PJ Thanks very much for helping me with this. I'm very quickly running out of options. Clearly there's still a little way to run in terms of legal action...

My rear muffler fell off on Saturday and I noticed a massive hole in the intermediate pipe too. Instead of bodging it an welding it up, I found a new full system on fleabay for about £50. LAND ROVER 200TDI DISCOVERY 1 EXHAUST SYSTEM '89-'94 on eBay (end time 13-Nov-09 13:21:32 GMT) Has anyone...

I've got standard alloys on my disco, is it safe enough to use the nuts from them on these new wheels I bought for? Or is it worth investing in a proper set of nuts for them? If so, which ones are they?! I haven't stuck these on yet, was going to use them for off roading as they look like...

Morning, found out that the whine from my rear diff was probably due to lack of oil. Now I've filled her up, I noticed a load of oil leaking out the half shaft seals on the NSR wheel. Am I right in assuming that it's: a) Probably the wheel bearing (replace bearing, halfshaft/spline gasket...

Got a weird noise coming from my disco. At first I thought it was tyre noise but I've not changed them and it never did it before. Sounds like it could be the rear diff but I'm not sure. It does sound like tyre noise, it's got a rumbly whiny quality that increases with road speed. Firstly, is...

G850 Petrol Generator 850W - Machine Mart Anybody know if this would run a 150w mig welder? I thought I'd ask in here since most Land Rover owners are self taught welders too! My mate just bought an old Anglia and needs to weld it. Trouble is his garage is in a block in a housing estate...
