Hi all, Just been looking through my paperwork etc for the disco and found my last mot advisory page (orange) and one of the things on it says Brakes Advisories: RBT Service Brake Efficiency: 50% and then further down says Service brake Your vehicle has only just met the required...

Hi guys, My 200tdi failed it's MOT on the following stuff: 1. Nearside front hockey stick bolt loose (suspension arm pin locking device not properly locked. I assume they're talking about the radius arm nuts not being tight so I need to get a new nyloc nut and stick it on - they quoted £25...

Tried to use my diff lock at the weekend and it wouldn't go in :( - the lever wouldn't budge over. Tried engine running / not running, transfer in H/N/L and while driving slowly forwards and back but it wasn't having any of it. High and low are fine though. I've got a 200tdi L reg...

Hi All, I'd forgotten how boring getting insurance was. Almost bored me to death and still not sorted. Anyway, does anybody know: 1. Does a '94 200Tdi come with any immobiliser as standard? Can't find out anywhere. I know it has some kind of excuse for an alarm (beeping horn) and a...

Got my 200Tdi a new clutch assembly and mainshaft and am now skint:( but my disco drives much better and much quieter so overall I'm happy. However, I've now got a wierd vibration that only happens in high range in 3rd, 4th, 5th. The vibration is worst at 2000rpm and tails off as the engine...

Hi all, a while ago I posted about my engine being noisy in neutral with clutch up, quiet when depressed, and a few people said it was the clutch bearing. Now it's starting to sound really ropey so I think it's time to bite the bullet, so: 1. Anything else I should have done while the box is...

94L 200Tdi 150k miles - from about 1800 - 2500 rpm the turbo gives a nice boost to power. At about 2500 it drops off noticeably but I can still hear the turbo working and still get reasonable power up to about 3000 rpm when I guess the turbo drops out. Is this normal? Air and fuel filters...

Hello. I drove fast through a big puddle today and the battery light came on for about 10 seconds, then went off. Presumably some water got somewhere it shouldn't - any ideas where and if it's worth doing something about it, or should I just avoid the puddles in future :confused:

Had a look under my boot carpet earlier. The floor is shafted:( Is that sound proof stuff supposed to come off easy? It seems stuck down or is it just sticking to the rust??? I searched previous posts about rear floor and found a couple but theirs didn't seem quite the same in that the...

I get the impression that some folks on here reckon the Haynes manual is a steaming pile of poo. Having used it myself to do a service and a couple of other bits, it seems OK to me but then I don't know very much. I hear you can get an electronic copy of the proper LR service & repair...

Hello Been trying to sort out all the niggles on my Disco 200Tdi but seem to find more problems - latest batch: 1. Steering - full left lock makes the left wheel rub on the radius arm - I'm hoping this is just a case of adjusting the steering stop bolt. Is this an easy job? 2. My front...

My 200tdi is due for a service so I've been shopping around for the filters (oil, fuel and air) on http://www.land-rover-parts-shop.com and I see that genuine parts are a fair bit more expensive. Are Coopers parts any good or should I stick with the genuine parts? Any other recommendations for...

Hi, The rear wiper motor on my '94 200Tdi makes a hell of a noise - anybody else's do this - is it a "feature" or would it benefit from a new motor? Ta.

Hi, I've got a '94 200Tdi (150k miles) and when I go round corners, I can hear a knocking sound coming from the front somewhere. It seems worse when I turn left but I can still hear it when I turn right. It also happens over uneven surfaces or if I brake sharply. I thought I could have a...
