This isn’t a for sale thread, as you’ll see. Depending on the response, I might put a proper ad in the correct section. 2010 D4 TDV6 HSE auto with 220,000 miles. 1 year’s MoT. Tyres all very good. Work done in the last 2 years: - Body off, replace EGR and crossover pipes, timing belt and fuel...

2010, 216,000 miles. Auto. Seems to make a noise like a turbo wastegate whistler, when the accelerator is released. Like a whistle, but slightly ‘ragged’, descending in pitch, sort of ‘PEWWwwwww’. It happens when stationary, in park or neutral as well, if I rev and release the engine. Doing...

The 90 is on 110,000 miles and the clutch is starting to judder, also lots of noise from the release bearing. It’s never let me down in 15 years, so I’m prepared to spend a bit. Parts: - Valeo clutch kit? I’d rather stick with a DMF so happy to replace that, unless someone strongly recommends...

Over 200k miles now. Previously had secondary turbo actuator faults, ‘fixed’ with replacement diverter valve and poking at the secondary turbo actuator itself (last year). Now has a pronounced hiss on acceleration that sounds like it’s from the air vents, smell of exhaust gas in cabin, some...

Over 200k miles on it, and there’s a whooshing sound coming from the left side of the engine bay (from driver’s perspective) when accelerating. No fault codes/black smoke, mpg normal for now. Is there a common place for split on these? I can’t see anything obvious. There’s a bit of a smell of...

Looking to trace the wiring, but can’t find locations for these valves and the RLM on the Disco 4. Is there a common failure point for the harness?

2010 model. It’s the top door affected. Plenty of threads on here about it, and as a result I’ve found the following: The keyfob button doesn’t work either; sometimes a double beep is heard. Sometimes, switching ignition off and on and waiting will resolve it temporarily. The lock release...

Handbrake made a huge screeching sound and won’t disengage - EPB fault indicated. Following some advice, I tried releasing with the cable - no luck. Then used my iCarsoft to unjam/engage/release - it makes noises but won’t release. I can’t get the discs off or turn the wheels to the adjuster...

Wife was coming up a hill and this happened. went back to normal and she got home ok. Codes: P22D2 - turbocharger turbine inlet valve stuck open P22CF - turbocharger turbine inlet solenoid circuit. Live data showed, as far as I can tell, the turbine inlet valve was closed. So, where is the...

171k miles. The right-hand camshaft sprocket broke and caused damage to the valvetrain on that side. The engine still ran on the left bank just long enough to pull in to the kerb. I’ve taken off the RHS cylinder head enough to inspect the pistons and bores, which are all fine. Top spec HSE...

Our Disco 3 shat itself (busted valvetrain RHS) and I’ve bravely run away from it. Found a nice Disco 4 owned by a mate and bought it quick, as the wife was using my Defender. Our old Disco was an 07 HSE, and the new one’s an 09 HSE. 1. Only one camera works - is it easy to get replacements...

171k miles. Took it on a long journey with the boat on the back last week. On the way back, there was a burning smell, possibly rubber, so I stopped and had a look. Seemed to be coming from the back of the engine, and could see some coming away from the gearbox. There was a small split in the...

Just to let you know there’s a project car in the ‘for sale’ part of the forum.

My mate’s wife bought a K series, sight unseen and without consulting him, and it has been a bit of a saga... It overheated, and I replaced the water pump for him (just spinning on its axis, not pumping). The timing was also out a tooth. It then dropped a valve, even though I got the timing...

A mate of mine has bought a 1.8 (04, I think). I asked about the head gasket and he said it had been done, but now it’s overheated. I haven’t seen it yet, but I think it’s about to turn up at my workshop... My plan is, from research on here: 1. Check for other reasons for overheating (fan...

New brake pipes needed all round for MoT, and from bitter experience I’ve ordered all flexi hoses and new wheel cylinders so I can replace the whole lot rather than fighting with crusty unions. Because the wheel cylinder bolts are often tricky, I ordered four of them too, but they’re out of...

I need to fit a new mirror assembly to the left front door, but can’t find a suitable set of plastic rivets/studs for putting the door card back in. There’s only one busted so far, which is for the little tweeter speakers right next to the mirror mount. Anyone got a part number/link?

07 Disco 3 HSE with 162,000 miles. Intermittently gives suspension fault warning when first started up as I drive away. Always goes away if the key is cycled. Codes (read with iCarsoft i930 V2): C1A36 Exhaust valve U0416 Invalid data from vehicle dynamics module U0100 Lost comm with ECM/PCM...

Has anyone ordered one of these recently? I ordered one from Island 4x4, specifically GKN (TOQ000040GKN) and it’s arrived in a Britpart box with no GKN branding. Should I expect a GKN on the box and stamped somewhere on the bearing? Any other clues? Usually a decent manufacturer puts their...

....and occasional hard starting. 156k miles. I did a simple unplug test, which wasn’t conclusive but seemed to indicate injector 3. I swapped that for a scrap injector (I know...) but no real improvement. Plugged in the iCarsoft i930 and looked into the cylinder roughness data. Various...
