1997R 300Tdi auto 158K miles A few weeks ago the light stalk stuck and would not flash or operate main beam, other lights ok, it just would not pull towards me. Decided I could live with it until Christmas was out of the way. Few days later, started car, switched lights on, only parking lights...

97R 300Tdi ES auto, 150k miles Both electric front seats stuck, lighter/phone charger socket, and both heated screens have failed. I was using a cheap air compressor from Te$co that died mid-use. I'll be able to try the compressor in another car tomorrow but just wanted to check if the...

No, not the 'you hum it and I'll play it' kind...! 97R 300Tdi auto, 128K miles. Starts ok (except Monday morning, had to charge it for a couple of hours). Has only done short runs, less than 10 miles, all this week. Today it started making a noise when revs go over 2500, only when moving...

97R 300tdi auto, 128K miles, has Goodyear Eagle GT+4 tyres all round, fitted by previous owner 3 years ago at 98K. Tread depth was recently assessed at 7/7/7 on both front tyres, 1/2/1 on the OSR, 5/4/5 on the NSR and I'm surprised it's so uneven. The OSF is losing some pressure, neither rear...

Bought a '97R 300TDi ES auto four months ago, after a long history of auto Volvo 740/940s. I tow a 900kg horse trailer with horses weighing 400kg each so a full load was close to the Volvo's limit. The attraction of the Disco was a) that it should cope very easily with the load and b) would...

Accessorising the new Disco 1 (97R 300TDi ES Auto): I can get an extension for the towbar-mounted Cyclemaster (from Towsure) bike rack but think a spare-wheel mounted carrier makes sense, so the boot can still open. I like the look of Simbars, anyone have experience of these or is there a...

Hi all, just introduced myself on the... er, introduction page. My first Disco is here, a 97R 300Tdi ES auto, 120K with 8 years history, after years of Volvo estates, and I see a steep learning curve ahead. Sorted the 'CD Error' with tips from this site, thanks boys! 'Lady' driver holds...

1 May 08 it arrived, a pretty blue Disco, 97R 300TDi with 120K miles, new MoT and 8 years history from its last owner, the car that should mean I never again have to get a Landy driver to pull my horse trailer off wet grass that defeated the Volvo. After years of 740 and 940 estates, the...
