cupholder spring thing broke, was just wondering how difficult it is to remove and repair/replace?

So, driver side key lock was not working. After i fixed it and was happy with being able to lock unlock the car manually from the handle, i found out the remote suddenly stopped working. Was working perfectly before and tried different keys. Central locking using the key at the handle and using...

need to change the crankshaft pulley and wondering if i should also replace the seal. currently it is not leaking but no idea what can happen after i have been working on the pulley. question is, any tips on levering the old seal out and pushing the new one in without spending around 400 quid in...

its a weird one but i seem to have a vibration which is most noticeable between 1500-2000 rpm. Things I noticed: 1. doesnt matter if it is in gear or clutch pressed/depressed 2. tried to change front and rear props 3. unlikely (i hope) that its engine mounts as they were changed 3/4 years ago...

Well considering that ACE Actuators seem to have vanished and you can barely find a second hand one, anyone knows if it is possible to service an ACE actuator if it is leaking?

unfortunately rust has found its was around the windscreen (top part) and was looking into fixing it. before i start tearing thing apart, is there anything i need to replace in the process? seals etc?

might be a silly question but can a rear diff be made to work at the front? thinking about adapting a P38 4-pin rear diff for the back of my disco and was wondering if the same could be dont at the front (use rear p38 diff for the front of the disco)!

2003 Manual Td5 Disco I have a battery leak which is draining the battery in a few days. I suspect it has become worst over the months. Any obvious / common culprits that I can check? best way to check it?

follow up from my ac-upgrade thread I have bought "most" of the components for a rear-ac retrofit. and now on to planning to install everything, trouble is I seem to be able to find lots of people 'thinking' about doing it but not much info, maybe photos of wip or diagrams of how to plumb the...

So the air-conditioning in my d2 is really not very good. Might be enough in the cooler regions but in 40degrees+ Summer Malta it wont do. Checked the gas. Changed condenser, fan output seems similar to other landies so i think it is the system it self that is ****. Any ideas on how i can make...

Im planning an M57 engine conversion in my head but would like to keep the ACE. I think the easiest way to do it would be to fit an electric hydraulic pump like fitted to some cars for the powersteering. Anyone knows where I could get the specifications for the stock pump so i can find a...

I have carried out some extensive work on the ace system: replaced all hoses, replaced transducer and now i am at a point where i have no warning lights, no error codes and no weird noises. all good i think, except in my opinion it is leaning a bit too much in the corners, i think it used to be...

A bit of a weird one... I have noticed my keys have different behavior. I noticed that one of the keys works normally and I can even start the vehicle if i unlock it with the key (had set it up to disarm the immobiliser from the key incase the receiver stops working). The second key doesnt...

After hearing horror stories of bursting ace hoses, I am revamping the ace system with new hoses and would also like to change the high pressure hose but it seems to be quite hard to get to. I removed the fan, and looks like the pump side is accessible-ish but the other end I cannot even see...

Hi, i am currently working on a coolant level warning light and thought about using the transmission lamp as mine is a manual. What would be the best way to tap in? I plan on using a proximity sensor which gives a 0.7v signal when activated

So the latest problem.... Lost drive, gear selector felt weird so figured it must have been something with the selector yolk. I was right. The bush snapped and fell with the selector ball in the gearbox. I was able to retrieve the plastic bush and the selector ball but couldn't find the snap...

So a friend wanted to strip down his ACE valve block and due to lack of research failed to realise that the DCVs are opposite threads (i assume to avoid switching them?). Well instead of asking google why it wouldnt move he asked for a bigger spanner and the dcv snapped. Long story short, I...

Hello, noticed that there are some wet patches around the fuel lines on the chassis and thinking there might be a slight leak somewhere either hose itself or connection at the fpr. What is the best way to replace these? also, in terms of replacement parts, is it possible to make your own using...

Hello, I have recently upgraded the valve block to hydraulic fittings and now i have zero leaks that I can see. The ACE worked faultlessly for a glorious few weeks and suddenly im getting an intermittent red warning. switching it off and on again seem to 'fix' it. I also had a yellow warning...

I cant seem to get the pipes going to the ace valve block off. Following rave manual it seems to be straight forward enough but im pulling and they are not moving. Yes i removed the two bracket and the weak looking clips underneath
