John, "...where the pipes pass through the rubber protectors that hold them clipped to the chassis/body..." This is where I first identified my leak and apparently is a common area for them. In my case I decided that if one pipe has gone, the others will follow, so elected to replace all the...

My first time at trying this, lets see if it works...! http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/710-53481-19255-0/1?icep_ff3=2&pub=5575378759&campid=5338273189&customid=&icep_item=253895511030&ipn=psmain&icep_vectorid=229508&kwid=902099&mtid=824&kw=lg&toolid=11111

Well, on the plus side, as far as I can ascertain I don't have any of those other problems; But how the hell can you actually feel bad about giving up on a car...!? Ah, must be that Land Rover thing we keep talking about...

Yes, I had considered this before trying to fix the ACE; however, having now spent over £600 on parts + more on labour, I'd be looking at something similar on a roll-bar conversion - finding someone good to do the job 1st time is the issue - and I still have to sort out the sunroofs as well as...

Well, it went like this... Seals & collets were genuine LR, pipes from DLS (B'part I believe) Test driven, no issues; a drive later in the week introduced me to the appropriate warning lights - back to the garage... Turns out that the valve block was now leaking- seems to be corrosion around one...

One & All, Thank you for your prompt replies - in particular I'm reassured to read some positive comments about Britpart; my own experience was limited to replacement mudflaps & brackets on a '98 300Tdi, which needed some fine-tuning & even more colourful language... As you're aware, in some...

Gentlepersons, Having sorted out my PAS courtesy of WPS, The old girl is now losing ACE fluid from the front pipes at a frightening rate... I love Landrovers... No, really. Replacement front pipes seem to be either Britpart's ('nuff said...) or LR. I'm probably looking at a full front set...

That's it settled then, I've ordered my WPS box and await with bated breath! It turns out that their Ebay site and home webpage aren't linked, so one says out of stock, whilst Ebay still had then on offer... A quick phone call to a very pleasant & helpful lady swiftly sorted things. So, Thank...

Gentlepersons, Thank you all for your kind words of welcome; hopefully my future contributions will be as worthwhile as those I have learned from!

'twill be done, once I suss out how - I'm a bit of a technophobe, but getting there! It's fairly stock, no tweaks or uprated anything, but it works (usually) for me...

Disco... I originally wanted a Defender , but the Discos were cheaper and good for the family, so I stuck with them!

Thanks for the prompt response - I had been looking at a WPS box as they come with a 2 year warranty and have the drop arm, so I may just give them a run!

Gentlepersons, A weep became seepage, which in turn became... I think you may be familiar with the tale. Bizarrely the biggest problem I seem to have is identifying which box to replace it with... Apparently the later D2 needed a different drop-arm which seems to complicate matters. Local...

Greetings to one and all, I've used this forum for some time, dipping in & out when needs be, sometimes when something goes wrong (more frequently than I'd like, but that's land rover ownership!) but often just out of curiosity and to pick up tips. The most obvious one being "Buy another...
