I will be checking insurance when I have access to my documents however from memory, I do have legal cover. I will send a form email this evening, the problem I have is it’s a works vehicle and needed for towing otherwise I won’t be able to carry out some of my work.

The man I was waiting to hear from ! Well that’s bad news, hopefully it isn’t that then. Is their any diy ways of testing these ? Do you know if my Hawkeye can test them ?

Thanks for that, that’s the frustrating thing I haven’t asked advice on fb groups as he’s annoyingly posting my vehicle on there stating he’s done the work and a happy customer etc (if anyone’s on the groups it’s not hard to see) I haven’t mentioned anything to anyone as I want it resolved amicably,

Thanks for that I have messaged him letting him know what’s stopped working as the side lights and headlights now no longer work. He said ‘ I’m not sure what’s gone on there to be honest mate iv done everything to avoid any damage to any wiring etc and checked it over once built back up’ To...

Thank you for the helpful response, the trouble is he’s a 2 hour round trip away and really don’t have the time at the moment. How would you word a letter like that without causing too much tension. Even a contribution or hell an offer to take a look would suffice right now, but to think it...

I paid a welder fabricator who does loads of chassis work on discovery’s now. Rang him he wasn’t best helpful but I will probably suggest I take it to an auto electrician and he foots the bill or part of it at least. I understand issues happen it’s how they are handled that’s remembered.

I saw a picture of the battery on the floor so that’s certain. As I say both sides were done so need to figure out what wires are related to the Speedo lights and tail lights. Just frustrating. Rang the guy and he wasn’t arsed but I will apply some pressure I think. It was a welder fabricator...

Hi all I’ve just picked my discovery td5 up from having my arches welded, he disconnected the battery and left the fuse box connected but moved it out of the way. Also on the passenger side arch the wiring insulation appears to have got hot and melted some of the black insulation but not the...

As the title really. You get what you pay for and most of the time I get genuine stuff but my sensors were replaced by the previous owner 4 years ago but are overdue now due to cracking. Are the aftermarket 2 for £30 worth it or is it £90 each for genuine the go to ones? Just replaced the...

Thanks for that! I will cut the pipe and remove the connector in that case.

Thanks for that, I assume you mean both ends including the one that goes into the abs module itself as well. I will replace the whole pipe with new if that’s the case.

So I’ve been replacing all my hoses for braided line and both rear main lines as one burst and the other was on it’s way out. All the nuts were absolutely screwed/ welded together by rust. All but one came undone eventually and I had to resort to mole grips as I rounded the front Passenger one...

Started to replace the front drive hub, took hours removing the back bolts hammering a 14mm socket on instead of the original 15mm needed due to the rust. Then taking ages removing said bolt from socket and repeat. also made a start replacing brake hoses for braided goodridge ones and front to...

Was this “hack” connected to my account or another account that posted on a topic I posted years ago?

Thank you for that I will have a read now. If almost seems like there are bearings in there that don’t seem to want to be pressed in and the the key get stuck on them.

My ignition barrel is on its way out and the key gets stuck half way at times. I don’t want to replace all my keys as I have 4 and don’t want to have a different one to my doors. How do I go about getting a replacement to match my keys and is it a diy job to replace or a specialist job? thanks...
