OK cool. Appreciate the straight to the point answers. Can't see anything obvious. Only thing we could think of was doing a compression test.

Yes, was worried that would be the case. Anything else to try/test before taking the head off, or should we just jump straight in and take it apart? Temperature gauge didn't show any overheating at all, until after we'd pulled over, at which point it went through the max... Which was great...

300TDI engine in a Disco, travelling at about 70, lost power billowing smoke behind... pulled over and it died as we came to a stop... Open bonnet, coolant everywhere, black smoke coming from the top of the engine. After getting recovered home, tried turning it over to see if it would start...

Very nice job, need to tackle this in my new one! Looks ace afterwards!

Looks lovely! What's the specs on her?

This service looks pretty good from these people - CSK Automotive (and not too far away) http://www.cskautomotive.co.uk/waxoyl-dinitrol-rust-treatment/

:p haha, I did honestly mean dog guard, but I was in the middle of writing down a separate list of things I want to buy haha. Yeah, it looks like I got off pretty lightly! Plan is to take all the interior out and then start converting the rust that's there to something a little less aggressive...

Hey all, Managed to get out of work on time yesterday, so decided to have a little tear-down and see what delights await me within my first week of Land Rover ownership under the carpets of doom... I should probably admit at this point that while twirling the trim removal tools between my...

Hi all, As title suggests, I started my build thread in the Discovery section (newb error!) and would like it moved to the "Members Vehicles/Projects" section - could someone do this for me please? Thread is here...

THAT'S AWESOME!!! LOVE THAT! How long did that take you to make can I ask? That's amazing! Is that an idea that's been done before or is that all your own making and such? And yeah, I'm fully in sponge mode at the moment, so anything else I can hoover up in terms of knowledge the better dude!

Popped a build thread together for her: https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/project-all-fun-good-times-no-drama.299106/ :)

Hello! Thanks for the kind welcome Sir! Well I had a decent look round it before buying and it didn't look too bad at all, it had a couple of bits taken care for the MOT with a few advisories of under body corrosion, so I'm planning on taking out the interior tonight and having a bit more of...

Ola! Hello all good people of the Land Rover World! Thanks for stopping by! Welcome to my project and I'm planning something different (hopefully) from the other threads... This will be all about the enjoyment and fun as opposed to focusing on the negatives! In part because the latter would be...

Haha, Well, I have enough other cars to water down the fact that the Landy may need some love and attention over the coming months. I've done quite a bit with projects, involving different engines, conversions, rebuilds, even 4WD converting a Corrado many moons ago so I'm more than able and...

PM'd you sir!

Awesome a fellow Jap person (that sounds weird I know! Haha) Well all cars need some love and attention, this one might need more than other but she's love-able already and that's good enough for now and Pepper can't use a Bride seat, so the Landy has to be up to the job on that front! Have you...

Haha, yes she has some built in weight saving included ... But that should balance out with the bargaineous price I paid, that was with 12 months M.O.T. so I have some time to figure what I'm doing and hopefully find my feet and then get busy with the panel removal and fire up the M.I.G. for the...

Howdy all, First off I should probably point out that I'm not a hippy, but I am feeling the love already on this forum from seeing all your replies to each other, so I'm sure that I'm in the right place with a good community and plenty of knowledge tucked away on here! :D:D:D So! To myself...
