I have noticed that the SRS light on my dash stays on while driving. It does this most af the time but not all the time. I realise that SRS has something to do with the Airbag system but was hoping that resolving the problem might be something quick and easy. Can you please let me know what i...

I wanted to do my own servicing for my TD5 but there seems to be no haynes book available. Does anybody have any suggestions?

Price for a relaible car = priceless Price for owning a Landrover Discovery TD5 ES (2001 with 90K miles) New clutch with labour = £500 New air pump = £400 New fly wheel for clutch = £300 Labour costs = £500 And the F**cking car is only worth £10,000 at max.:mad: That's it. I've had it...

I have been forced to put a new clutch in my TD5. It was also a gearbox out job and i was quoted €1000 for part and labour. I was told it will be another €500 if the flywheel needs replacing. €1000 is about £640. Does that sound right to you? what were you quoted?

It looks like my Disco will need new Clutch Plates. Does anybpdy have any idea how much this is likly to cost? Also, i am no longer able to raise the rear of my disco with the hight adjustment botoen (forgotton the proper term). Any ideas what might be causing this? Kind Regards Barry

Why do you want to look like a ganster? Stick wit the sun shades?

I driver a 2000 TD5. Recently the gears have started to play up. Occassionaly (not all the time) when i try and put her into first or reverse there is a loud grinding noise. I also have this same problem when changing down in the gears. Changing up is fine but but going from 4th to 3rd can sound...

isnt it great when a problem like that can be fixed in seconds and cost little or no money. Unfortunatley these are rare with Landrover. Glad i could help.

I had this problem. It was actually the rear door handle. If you prize out the Land rover logo on the back handel and spray some WD40 on to the mechanism it will loosen up the door lever. Hope that helps. Regards Bazza

Ok so I have my own Disco and have enjoyed it for a while now. I realise that to continue the whole charade of "i am a real man and not one of you poncey BMW drivers" i need to learn how to service my Disco myself. The only problem with this is that i am not a mechanic and have never serviced...

Auto Glym sell a scratch remover but these are no better than what you might find in Halfords. Removing a scratch requires polish on top of polish on top of polish. This is a gradual process and can take some time. You have to ask yourself if it is worth doing this on something like a disco.

So this time next week, courtecy of the warranty,it should be "No smoke" and a "real landrover":p 4Wd A real landrover! Im sorry are you talking about a Freelander???

I can get 500 miles out of my TD5 but that is pushing it and i am then running on fumes. Patvin - would did you expect out of a big V8?

Sounds to me as if you need a new injector. Mine had exactley the same problem. I had it replaced last week and it sorted the problem immediatley. The whole job cost me £600.

is that likely to be expensive?

The knocking sounds as if it is coming from the underside rear of the car. It only happens when i am moving very slowely (parking etc). As soon as i pick up speed it stops. The knocking occurs regardless of the wheel position. Thanks Bazza

Typical After spending £600 on replacing my injectors my car runs sweet for 1 day until the next problem arises. I am getting a knocking noise from underneath the car. It only happnes when i am moving very slowely. As soon as i pick up speed it stops. Does anybosy have any ideas? I bet...

I have managed to break the rear indicator glass on my TD5. A dealer has informed me that i need to replace the whole rear lamp. Does anybody have any idea if the rear indicator lamp unit is easy to remove? I have included some pictures below. Regards Bazza

Get rid of it mate. I love my Disco but am getting a little bit fed up with all the work going into it. It's a real love hate relationship. I am seriously considering going for a Defender. I am not a farmer and have no intention doing any serious off roading but think they look great. Does that...

No Problem, i deserved it. I bet that 4 litre likes to drink.
