Straight out the back sounds good to me, don't want to mess about. At the moment it's about 2ft short and I just love that exhaust fumes smell!!!!:rolleyes: Thanks for your replies, off to the nearest exhaust fitters on Monday.

Thanks. Would this method of repairing the exhaust be OK for MOT if done properly with no leaks?? I'll have a look at the brakes when it dries up a bit outside.

My disco back box seems to have departed company at some point, nothing unusual about that I gather. It broke off just behind the mounting bracket. I can't find anywhere local to me with the rear section in stock but a friend of mine has suggested using a piece of straight pipe, inserted into...

Alternator? Belt (loose or worn?) Poor earth connection? Battery? Could be any of those, someone more knowledgeable may be able to help more.

Panic over, craddocks had 1 in stock. Fitted now and no leaks. Hope thats the end of it all. Thanks to all who offered advice.

Help!!!! Just been messing with the fuel sender again and it was leaking from one of the metal pipes that was badly corroded, its now worse as I have obviously opened up the crack further. I can't find anywhere local to me that has them in stock and I need my car!! Anyone got any suggestions...

Just noticed part of the exhaust tailpipe is missing, another piece of kit I gotta buy for this damn disco! It doesn't have a silencer on the rear pipe but the examples I am finding online all do, where can I find a pipe like the one currently fitted??

Can't see any leaks on the pipes but there is some diesel on the top of the tank so it may be leaking where I can't see it. :eek: I have a hole in the boot floor immediately above the exhaust pipe, looks like another fookin repair on this moneypit!!!! Thought I'd started getting high every...

ok, thanks. I'll check that out.

Walsall, west midlands.

I have noticed my tank is leaking on my disco, can't see where from as the diesel is dripping from various places. I am guessing I will be needing a new tank!:rolleyes: Are the fuel tanks different on the 300 as I have seen one going for £25 on ebay but if it ay gonna fit......!! If so can...

It's gonna cost me more than I thought, there's a hole in the side of the gearbox and the flywheel housing. God knows what damage has been caused inside!! New flywheel housing, almost certainly another new clutch and gearbox repair. Now I'm ****ed off.:mad:

I guessed as much. I haven't got access to that sort of equipment and I haven't got a driveway to do the job anyway. Looks like I gotta pay the garage again!!!!!:mad::mad::mad: You guys are fast!!! So you don't think it will be the clutch again, It sounded similar to the last time it went...

I had the clutch replaced on my 200tdi last December, today I pulled into a parking space on a local supermarket, when I pressed the clutch I heard a loud crack then a rattling noise like something had shattered. I felt it through the clutch pedal. Now every time I start the car I can hear the...

Thanks for the help guys, I just won THESE on ebay, thanks to nicedayforit for finding them for me. Looks like I'm having a drive down to Worcester over the next few days. Stu.

Just checked and they do, they look nice but still come to £125 with delivery. Looks like its gonna cost me no matter what unless I can drop on some used ones on ebay.

They look OK but the listing has ended and they haven't re-listed them. I'll keep an eye on them though. Thanks.

Nice one, just hope nobody else bids. Bit far to travel but if I save myself 60-70 quid........... Thanks.

No roof rails fitted. I have no idea what the height those are on ebay, as for being more expensive £35 is a lot cheaper than the one's I have seen elsewhere. It just depends how much longer bars will cost. I'll have to find out what height they are.

Thats what halfords do but the high foot kit is £123. 1480mm? So my 60 inch measurement wasn't far out. I just saw THESE on ebay, I know they ain't wide enough but would this type fit if I could get a longer bar?? At only £35, even with buying longer bars it would save me a bit of cash. I...
