I've read a few and I think maybe height sensor issue but would like your advice. Drove somewhere yesterday, all fine. Then again today for 6 miles or so, all fine. Then I didn't look at suspension but noticed that about 5/6 more miles the suspension was on wade mode and normal level was...

I've had a search on here and haven't had much luck... My dad's p38 (4.6 thor) has an issue. He rang me to say that he's stopped and water was leaking past the cap and that the cap was loose. So he tightened the cap and the temp gauge went up but then back down again. So I said, once it's...

When I bought my p38 it had a bit of towel stuffed between the trim in my foot well. Leaking o ring I'm guessing. I ring it out occasionally, doesn't loose much water, but I've just developed an eas problem and wondered if it could be linked? The suspension won't go up, will sometimes go...

I already knew about how to set the window and sunroof so I tried it to no avail. So I had a search and tried it slowly (holding it at the bottom for a few seconds) but still nothing. I've tried dozens of times. The motor will keep trying to close the window when it gets to the top causing a...

Hi, I sold my disco 1 over a year ago due to rust. I'm rubbish at welding. But I've now ventured into the p38 (my personal favourite) gone for the diesel 2.5 because I'll be using it daily. Everything works as it should, shocking I know but the one thing that doesn't seem right is the eas takes...

So I've recently had a uj on the rear of the front prop go. Vibrating like hell. Also worth noting that when I checked it following some vibrations it was solid. But some wd40 and grease then it was awful. So quite deceiving. Anyway I got a bearmach yolk and put it in. I marked the flanges but...

From what I've read was the 4.6 bosch engine originally fitted with champion spark plugs? What suggestions do you guys have?

Hi. My front to middle prop has a knackered uj at the transfer box end. Just wondering the best place to get the uj is. I've seen a few but don' want one which will be knackered again in 6 months. Also in pretty sure my transfer box needs sorting. I posted when I first got the disco. It lurches...

Hi I have a v reg p38 with a V8 petrol engine. Its the later bosch engine. A coolant leak has appeared and has gotten worse quite quickly. It is at the rear of the engine but I cannot pinpoint it. To give an idea of location it is running down the nearside. Down the fuel pipe and down the side...

I have a disco 1 and it struggled to start this morning. Was slow and took a few times before it fired. Sounded on the brink of not starting and dying completely. The battery is 2 years old and is 70ah 620cca. I commute about 1 mile to work so it doesn' get a run. But put the charger on it and...

I have a 2000 p38. The interior lights are becoming a mystery!! When I got it none of the courtesy lights worked. So I took the first steps and replaced all the bulbs. You'd expect either none or all of them to work... One now works as it should. Open and shut the doors it goes on and off...

I have a 2001 freelander 1. It's body and interior are in very good condition. 5 door with 140k miles on the clock. No problems with 12 month mot. How much do we think it's worth?

As Its hard to describe I wasn't sure what to search for so I'll explain it here... Sounds like a stone being rattles around in a box and it's coming from the front of the engine near the fan somewhere but I can't locate it properly as it's only making a noise with the engine running. Just...

I've just commented on a similar post from a few years back. Basically the car jerks when the accelerator is depressed or released. I've been told transfer box by a mechanic. But I've read the other post on here. Any ideas? It is only occurring in low gears at a low speed.

There's a slight hole forming in the corner of the rear top (curved) windows on my disco 1. I've seen someone with a chequer plate in its place but can't remember who it where I saw it. Any ideas??

So the p38 drives very well and doesn't overheat. Good start. Needs 2 new front air bags... How much should I pay for them each? And if anyone has a link would be great! Needs a new abs accumulator. Again any suggestions and what price is acceptable? But today I noticed the coolant was...

So one failure on my car was excessive corrosion withing 30cm of the three rear body mounts. It's the metal strip that runs across the back under the boot. Mines got a winch bumper on the back so didn't notice it. What's the procedure here? Cut it out and what do I need to replace it with? Do...

Just a few things that needs doing... The roof sags... What's the best way to sort it? Ive seen some that claim to have new roof linings? The abs/brake vacuum kicks in either every time or every other time the brake pedal is depressed. I read it should be every 4 times so what needs replacing...

I don't really want to sell this car as it's too good to sell! But it's off the road awaiting my wife to pass her test and it will cost her a lot to insure. It's done 140k miles but is a superb example. Few issues with it. Not all the doors lock and unlock on the fob. Guessing it the mechanism...

I apologise for my ignorance but what is green landing and how where would I do it? (I'm in Suffolk)
