failed MOT today on emissions/opacity. The pass rate being 3.0 it scored 3.22. Injectors cleaned and took it for a blast, not much came out the back, it runs smooth but have noticed that the temp gague hardly even gets up to 1/4 of the way up. All filters changed recently and oil. Anyone got...

So I've had a leaky fpr for a while and now about to replace it, tried the O ring kit and that didn't work. Problem I have now is starter won't start! Will this just be a case of dropping it out and a bit of a clean up with contact cleaener is is it fcuked?

Was doing a service today and all was fine and dandy until I went to put the cap back on the oil filter (td5) and tried to do up the bolt closest to me, it just kept spinning, took the cap back off and there was the thread attached to the bolt where it should screw into (hope that makes sense)...

Trying to bleed the brakes on a TD4. Front no probs but got the rear l/h and it won't budge. Took the wheel off to get better access but it's starting to round off so soaked in wd40 and left it for the moment. Sure I saw a thread on this a while ago but can't find it. Anyone got any advise...

Hi Guys, Got the sister in laws freelander on my drive after she wore down the brake pads to bear metal then kept on going until the calliper gave out :doh: Just replacing all the damaged parts and going to need to bleed the system. Is there a right order to bleed thses in? Thanks

As per the title. I have a '99 TD5 and the fuel flap wont lock shut. You can see the latch doesn't move now and when you push the unlocking switch in the cab it no longer makes a sound. Been bodging it with blu tac for a couple of weeks but feel I should find the proper solution. Any one got...

Hi There, My MOT is now due and I have the 3 amigos :mad: Does anyone have a diagnostic tool to help me out here for a few beers as pretty skint due to the kids being on holiday but need to keep the car on the road? I don't mind travelling and as I'm off work this week can do any time. Thanks

When starting the car I get a pop sound through the speakers and also the clock and stereo is always back lit even though no numbers on the clock and when stereo is off (although engine on), but stereo does work. The interior lights are not working either. It may be coincidence (although I...

Just bought 5 botles of this from ebay with the intention of flushing out my td5 brakes. The thing is it has a date on it 12/09. Would this be a shelf life date and if so should I send it back or will it be ok? Thanks for any advice

What's my best/easist/cheapest option? Can it be chased out and if so what size? Or is it a new sump? :confused:

Got a leak and not sure whether to take it to the garage or go at it myself? Anyone done it and how long did it take. I would be using axle stands on my drive. Have already looked at the discovery2 site but not sure how hard. I have replaced air springs, injector harness and that sort of...

and able/willing to to help me out. I've got the 3 amigos intermitantly and would be grateful if I could get it read. Thanks

Help, Wife came home in the '99 TD5 tonight and when it is turned off there is a loud buzzing coming from the black box under the front passenger door (under the car) :(. What is this and how can I stop it? All help appreciated Rob

The front passeneger one has broken. Is it a relatively easy thing to replace or would I be better taking it to a garage? I've seen the part on ebay new for £30 delivered but not sure how big a job it is. Any advice/thoughts welcomed

a discovery 2 td5? They are genuine land rover ones, full length with mud flaps. Also will the roof rack? The type that attaches to the gutter. Thanks

Been looking for a new Disco sinc the con rod went through the side of my 300tdi and think I may have found one. Its a '99 on a T plate but has 150,000 on the clock. It has had 1 owner since new and seems to have been looked after well, there is no somke from th exhaust on starting or revving...

I went to look at a 300tdi discovery yesterday on a R reg, the car is an auto and seemed clean and well looked after, the service book was stamped at every 6000 miles although there were no receipts in support and the car has covered 83,000 miles. The sun roofs have been sealed. Is there...

Hi There, I'm looking for a bit of advice, as it would seem my discovery has died :(. I have a 97 3 door discovery in pretty good condition but the engine went on the motorway on Tuesday. I was driving along when there was a bang followed by a lot of smoke and there is now a hole in the engine...
