Hello I have a disco 3 2009 diesel with air suspension I need to do some work on it with the air suspension in the highest height. I don’t want to risk the car dropping if it lets go the air. Is there a way to lock it at this height so it is safe. I have not got to crawl under or anything but...

Yes I have had 4 EGR valve replacements and when they go you get the orange light of Doom and she goes into limp mode that is not good when towing a boat or caravan. My D3 is a lovely car in many ways but If I am going on a long journey towing I prefer to take the D2 far less stress in your...

Before long the D2 will be a clasic car :) What I find so sad is that the stuff they keep forcing on cars costs money, effort and materials to maintain and I am sure that the net effect to the planet is worse for it. You wait in a few years there will be a huge cry that they dont know what to do...

To be honest the only part I don't like are the EGR valves and it is well known that these cause more issues and as for what they are supposed to do I am afraid I simply don't believe it. The cost to the Environment of them is I feel far more than what they supposedly prevent. No vehicle...

It is very sad that after 35 Years you don't seem to understand. If it were unsafe I agree it should not be on the road. As I said it would not be unsafe and you well know it..... Carry on ticking your little boxes and proudly signing your name............ and perhaps try to accept that not...

Many thanks for your useful post. I was sort of coming around to thinking that the O6 are probably the best. I would not remove anything in it as many one here think until perhaps it failed and then think about my options. I would even leave the EGR valves until they failed and then blank off.

But they aren't unsafe or Potentially Dangerous now are they and that is precisely what would make such a person a jobsworth........ Which I suspect is a category that you might fit into. Any chance you could answer the original question or are you also not capable of that

Now after that little argument I am only interested in answers to my Original question which was what do people think was the best D3. Model and year etc

I never suggested that it could be converted I just said it was a terrible solution to something where a far better solution had been invented years ago

Well all you need is an MOT Inspector that is not a Jobsworth. Here it is being done

I disagree

You might fail it but I is good that there are some MOT places that are more sensible. So perhaps back to the original question of My post which if you read above you will see..... Always good to answer the question that was asked

So EAS means the Air Suspension. I think you are incorrect about it not passing the MOT with this converted to Springs as there are loads of conversion kits on the market and I am certain that would not be the case if it would not pass the MOT. As for towing I have never ever felt the Need to do...

So what does EAS and EPD Stand for

I have lubricated my Turbo actuator arm on my Disco 3 to hopefully get rid of the old Engine System Fault Message

Have no fear I will keep my TD5 but the extra pulling power (I tow Caravans and Boats) of the Disco 3 Is incredible and it is somewhat more refined over the TD5. I am kind of thinking that a Disco 3 year 2005ish with Blanked off EGR Valves and converted to Spring Suspension (so no more air...

Hello I have a Discovery 2 TD5 and an 09 Plate Discovery 3 TDV6 HSE. I am seeing that the price of Discovery 3's is very good now and I like many others have had issues with my Disco 3. Air Suspension, EGR Valves, Engine System Fault etc and of course my Road Tax is £585. I was wondering which...

Some boats are selling well but this is also a bit of a myth. if you look on the main sale sites you can still buy one. Either way I tend to never sell anything. It is just how I am

Largest is a Sealine S24 then 6 Fletchers 2 Ribs 2 net skis and several sibs most have 2 strokes the largest outboard being 200hp the smallest being 2.5 I manage to look after them all ok If you think that is a lot I have over 220 RC planes and 10 plus drones Each to their own

Yes 6 I would have 7 but that would be extravagant :) Now as for Boats I have well about 12............. You can never have enough :)
