Seems to have a cable. Will have to change oil & filter.

It was already doing it before I adjusted the cable, I thought the slack may have been the problem :)

Hi Our lasses 300tdi auto is having some problems, it only revs to 3000rpm which is where it seems to want to change gear. I have tried it sat on the drive in neutral but it's like there is a limiter in place. I have fitted a new turbo top hose (it's been de EGR ed), cleaned out the sedimeter...

My swivels only have the fill plug at the top so is it likely to have one shot or oil in? It's a 1997 Disco 300Tdi :) If it's oil is it a case of taking to bits or can I syphon it with my big syphon thingy? I would've taken the plug out of the top but I think it was put in by Samson on the...

Update* Changed the bearing in the tensioner - no better, but this time there is no lateral movement Changed the water pump - Still no better. Going to see if I can get the alternator checked tomorrow.

Hi :)

When you are changing the box remember that the torque conerter will be full of oil and weigh a fair amount. I don't know if you have to remove the torque converter on a Disco but I thought I'd warn you just in case ;)

Cheers. I have a short belt on, I checked from your description, thanks for that :) I took the tensioner off and tried it with a different one, it was a lot quieter. There isn't much play or any noise on the water pump or the alternator but there is play in the one near the fuel pump. When I...

Our lasses Disco 300Tdi has started squeaking a lot and fairly loudly. I tried the penny trick but no better, so changed the fan belt, also no better, so changed the bearing in the tensioner, alas still no better. So now I am thinking either the water pump, although it uses no water, or the...

On t'bay 1995 LAND ROVER DISCOVERY TDI OFFROAD MONSTER on eBay (end time 10-Aug-10 11:25:43 BST) At least the discription is honest :D

Cheers :)

A mate has just got some heavy duty springs and two are short. Are these for the front or back? I had a quick search and it seems the longer ones go on the front but my original springs are longer on the back although they are heavier :confused: I'm more confused now than normal :D Ta

Doesn't trailwise already do that? Or something very similar?

If you hire a welder it should come with the wire already on (0.6 or 0.8mm) Most motor factors sell small sheets of steel or you could try a local fabrications place for an off cut or two. Most car body work metal is between 1 and 2mm, you can go for either but don't go too thick as there is a...

Doesn't look too bad at all :)

Started cutting away the rust on the rear cross member and cutting plates to fit :)

Cheers :) I'm not overly struck on the idea of a suction cup mounted one just incase it falls off.

The system maybe free but the maps aren't. At £1.89+vat per 10x10km tile it isn't going to be that cheap. Mapyx QUO - The Essential GB Mapping Software

Has anyone sucessfully mounted a camcorder in their landy :eek: rather than holding it in their hand.? I've also been looking at the sports type camcorders that stick to the screen but I don't know if they'll be any good once they are getting bounced around laning etc. I already have a decent...

Put a new spring in the back door of our lasses motor :)
