Hi all, does anyone know if there is a coolant pipe or some gasket that might be causing a huge leak under the inlet manifold on my 2003 TD5 Disco please. I tried to have a look today but without removing lots of metal it's very difficult to spot anything. I've a feeling it's the head gasket...

Morning all, just a quick question. Has anyone bought and used one of the ball joint splitting kits for pressfit joints from ebay, they look ok but from a photo you can never tell. I've access to oxy acetelene so heat isnt a problem. I was gonna fabricate the tool myself but for 50 quid thought...

Hi all, I've mentioned before that my 2003 TD5 engine runs like it's slightly out of balance at low revs. I've changed the wiring loom and cleaned the ECU plug ,opened the ECU to check for oil ingress, set all the rockers, done the seals and copper washers just about everything I can think of...

Hi guys, just a quick one. After changing my compressor valve block I've been plagued with problems. First was the rear bags started leaking which I've changed, then the compressor seems to be running a bit too long and now it's sat down on the drivers side. I'm gonna put two new height sensors...

Hi guys, I've been looking at my 2003 facelift Disco for a while now trying to work out why I don't like the look of it compared to my previous 2000 Disco. The penny dropped when I noticed that my new car doesn't have the side door trims that run from front to rear arch, haha it's only taken me...

Hi guys, after swapping my 2000 TD5 to a 2003 facelift model I've come to the decision that I don't really like the "upgrades" that come with the newer model, it just feels cheaper if you know what I mean, therefore I'm looking at buying a Disco 3 with FLRSH. Can anyone shed some light on the...

Hi everyone, after tracking down a few rattles and knocks with the new motor (2003 Disco TD5) I'm now under the impression the one or more of my injectors are rattling. I've had a read through a few of the previous posts which once again have proved invaluable so many thanks to all for taking...

Hi all, after my 2000 Disco TD5 got totalled by some clown not paying attention I've bought myself a nice 2003 model with the insurance payout. The problem is that there's a slight rumbling/vibration throughout the rev range. I've all but cured the problem at high speed/revs by removing the...

I've noticed that my windscreen has the wire elements running through for the de-mist function. When I peeled back the blank cover for where the switch is supposed to be, there is the connector plug for the switch.My question is, if I buy the correct switch do you think the windscreen de-mist...

Well the new Radiators is on and she's running sweet,thought I'd make myself a EGR blanking kit,can honestly say the low down power has well improved.The amount of s**t that was in the plenum chamber was insane,I'd have ripped it out sooner if I'd have known.Now for the question, when I...

Well I changed the engine ignition loom and she now runs perfectly once again.Thought I'd check the thermostat on my kenlow electric fan whilst i was mucky,glad I did the terminals had started to corrode and not making a connection,so no power to fan..BAD NEWS...All fixed now but as I was...

Just to say a very very big thank you to Island 4x4.Once again they have excelled themselves.Ordered parts at 2pm yesterday,on the door 8.45 am today.Gonna fit injector loom and cross my fingers.I'll let you know how it goes...

Can anyone tell me why oil in the injector wiring loom causes the car to missfire? Is it the oil reaching the red scart plug and causing a short in the electrics,or does the oil actually get inside the wiring in the head and disrupt the injectors? I've ordered a new loom cause i've got seepage...

Just a quick note to all with the Three Amigos..If you have fitted a coil spring conversion and did what I had done,ie not plug in and inform the computer and stick a piece of sticky tape over the annoying suspension warning light,then it does affect the ABS, eventually triggering the dreaded...
