Hey all, I'm trying to troubleshoot a non-starting diesel heater on a recently acquired 05/06 L322. Before I go taking too much apart, I was hoping someone could tell me the location of the diesel fuel pump which supplies fuel to the diesel heater. Is it attached to or located close to the...

So I was reading through the RAVE manual on the fuel delivery system for the TD5 and spotted this: "Unlike other Diesel engines, the Td5 engine has no injection pump. The diesel direct injection system receives fuel at pressure from a two stage fuel pump located in the fuel tank. The system...

Now I know disco 1 aircon doesnt have a great repuation as being particularly effective or having any gas left in them as they age they are but mine was a gooden and even had it re gassed last summer and all was well. With the weather warming up I have wanted to use it again recently but...

As per title, Disco 1 300tdi. Where would be the easiest place to tap off a 12v feed which becomes live when the ignition key is switched to the 2nd position?

Driving home from work last night, head gasket blew in my 300tdi, engine overheated and had to get towed home. Massive amounts of exhaust gas being blown back into the coolant reservoir so its basically fubar and needs to be repaired properly. Local garage as quoted me £660 inc vat as the...

Just had a look at the tyre fitting guide but not up on all the lingo... Which bit is the rear fender? same for front endcap and bump stop? Are these difficult or time consuming things to do? If these are on offset hubs is this going to reduce the number of modifications needed?

Still struggling to fix various electrical issues on my 300. Can anyone point me in the direction of some decent documentation and diagrams, the Haynes manual is useless!

Today I was messing about trying to get the rear windscreen wiper to work and accidentally shorted some contacts blowing fuse 18 (the one with the wiper symbol on the diagram under the steering wheel). replaced the fuse but after that there was no power going to the wiper relay. I checked the...

Could someone please tell me where this is located? I bought this disco with no working wiper, i've now tried fitting a new one and it just stays on constantly. I suspect the relay to be at fault as the switch on the dash does not stop it but I have no idea were it is and Haynes is no help!

Does anyone know what size the lights/light fittings are that fit into the back of the instrument panel? I thought they were these things 10x B8.5D T5 Gauge LED Speedo Wedge Dashboard Dash Car Light Bulbs Blue 12v UK | eBay but seems I was a little off the mark.

Recently got myself another 300tdi disco and it is exhibiting some strange behaviour with the drivers door handle (outside). When the vehicle is locked, if I pull on the door handle I can hear an electromechanical clicking/whirring noise from inside the door as if it is trying to open. It's...

Went for a long drive yesterday, probs about 7 hours total. Was all very pleasant and landy ran smoothly and faultlessly. Got home last night, parked up all being well. This morning I got to the car and saw a big puddle of oil on ground on the inside of the front passenger side wheel. (smells...

I plan to drain the coolant and replace with new in the next few weeks in preparation for the winter as it is probably long over due. Just wondering how one is supposed to dispose of the old coolant as I read it is somewhat toxic.

Logged on with an alternator Q and saw two similarly titled threads right at the top. Tis winter the season for alternator troubles? I was driving to work this evening along the motorway when all of a sudden my battery light came on and the rev counter dial read zero. Checked the belt and that...

Anyone seen this? I had to check it wasnt april the first! It looks like a gaylander gone wrong and available in 2wd? what good is that?! YouTube - ► Range Rover Evoque 2011 - NEWS Is this the end of the RR as we know it ? :(

Left hand side rear bumper light (the red one, not the indicator) stopped working in the last few days. Replaced the bulb and still doesnt work (new bulb works when connected to the right hand side connector) Is the left side fused separately? I cut off the connector on the left side thinking...

Local mechanic replaced my tyres today and when he returned the car he mentioned that the clutch would need replacing soonish. His estimate was at least £150 for the labour, about £100 clutch so getting on for £300 total. What should I expect to pay for a clutch replacement is that a good...

Well today I decided to fix a whole load of little things as MOT is drawing near, in addition attended to a few service items - glow plugs, air filter and fuel filter. Took me 2 hours tops, got it all done before the sun went down and my god it drives like a new car now! It's easy to not...

Looking to replace a panel on a disco which will need spraying to match the rest of the car. Ovbiously a panel is a reasonably large area so the tiny LR touchup paints are no use. Does anyone know where I can buy the stuff in 2 or 5l tins?

Just wondering how one goes about testing an alterntor? Just bought a new battery to replace the old one which needed replacing this time last year but just made it through the winter lol. Was talking to my neigbour and he suggested that it was probably my alternator at fault not the battery...
