Hi chaps, I'm in the middle of removing the petrol tank in order to a) renew the fuel pipes front to rear as they are rotten and b) do some rust prevention treatment on the chassis. The bloody car has been fighting me all the way due to the towbar bolts snapping and me having to grind them...

Rear fog lights being a pain now, thought it was the switch changed it but no, still not having it! If you turn on the rear fog lights then want to turn them off they won't switch off, the light on the button goes out, but the lights on the rear stay on. Press the button again & the lights go...

Hello I'm asking for advise again (hand brake sorted now thanks to Jamesmartin) My fuel lines (metal parts are very, very crusty) What would be the best way of replacing them? New ones are obsolete so it looks like its make / adapt your own, Would rubber fuel pipe all through from tank to...

Am I doing something wrong???? Changing the brake shoes on the Disco and I unhooked the cable from the shoe end that connects to the offside shoe. Can I get the bugger back on?!?!?!? Tried all sorts, but the spring that you have to pull back in order to get the cable into the end of the brake...

Just when I thought I was winning!!! 1st start up after major surgery to the top of the engine, Timed correctly, good fuel, good spark etc. It coughed & spluttered then started.......ran for a couple of seconds then died. Tried again, did exactly the same. Put the diagnostic on it and error...

Went to start my v8 today, key in ignition turn to the light come on and get noise coming from behind where the radio is. Engine won't turn over either. Does it sound like a spider fault???

Just finishing of the strip-down and clean of the v8 ready to rebuild it over the next few days. Just one question on the cylinder head bolts.... I've got the heads with 10 bolts and am wondering whats the rule with reusing the bolts?? Can they be reused or should I be getting new ones???? TIA

Hi all, My friend has a TD5 which is very lazy to start and is now starting to P1$$ both of us off. Usually it starts with the flick of the key, but lately its took 3,4 5 turns to get it going. Sometimes when you try to start it its really slow at turning over, others it turns really quickly...

There's a v8 Disco 2 for sale near me, 59k on a 03 plate. It looks very tempting and seems very, very tidy from the pics, usual droopy headliner. Got a full service history and recently had £1400 spent on servicing / exhaust. Been stood for 5 years though. up for £4000. Very tempted to go have...

You wish you hadn't started........???? Under the Disco today lining up the transfer box for installation, I've had quite a few oil leaks near the back of the engine so I thought I'd clean them off and make it nice & clean for later on when I put everything back together. Just shone the torch...

Whilst I've been rebuilding the transfer box I thought I might as well do a Auto box drain & replace the filter whilst the exhaust & cross member were off. Now I've just drained the sump of oil and removed said sump to clean it off and repaint the outside face as its rusty as...... :rolleyes: I...

Hello, just removed the nearside manifold of my v8 Discovery and it has a huge crack right down the centre. anyone got one they're willing to sell??? Needs to be part No. HRC2469 as that's what's stamped on mine. I'm in the Oldham area and looking to pay hopefully not more than £50.
