hi all We have a Disco 3 and a few months ago the heater blowers stopped working. Has become a problem now it is so cold. So far I have replaced the relay in the fuse box and checked the motor works and this seems fine. There is no power getting to the motor as far as I can tell but can’t work...

Hi all, I have an 05 plate 2.7 TDV6 which is refusing to start. A few weeks ago it started playing up with a complete absence of low down power and I assumed (and still do) that the EGR valves were at fault. As it's my partners car it hasn't been driven for a couple of weeks and this morning I...

Hi chaps, Tons of water coming into passenger footwell from the roof drain. I can't get near it to fix it so I think I gave the following 2 options:- Remove the fusebox - question is if I do this will I cause problems with immobiliser etc? Full strip down - looks like a huge job - anyone had...

Hi all. 2005 LR3 wont unlock with the remote. It has been suffering water ingress lately and a couple of weeks ago I sorted out the 2 front blocked sunroof drains. Seemed to improve over a few days but has been getting wet again over the last week. Electrics have been going a bit wild over last...

Hi all. We have just bought a Disco 3 2.7 TDV6 HSE on an 05 plate. I have been doing some research on towbars and have gotten a little confused. Can anyone tell me what I need to fit and whether the wiring is already in place? I read somewhere that the wiring is in one of the rear...

Still not managed to get my Disco to start. It's a 2.0 MPI and has no spark and no fuel being delivered. I had suspected it was an immobiliser problem but beginning suspect the ECU or a relay. Any tipson how to test the ECU? Thanks D

Just about to go out and see if I can work out why my Disco 1 won't start (1993 2.0 MPI). Hasn't been running for months as after the battery went dead the is no spark or fuel although the engine turns over. Think I will go to halfords and get a manual first. In the meantime any tips for...

All, I have a 1993 Disco 2.0 MPI that has been off the road for months now due to the fact it won't start. It was fine until the battery went flat but after full recharge I am getting no spark and no fuel. I suspect it's immobiliser related but despite getting a new fob which is programmed to...

After a year of owning my Disco it has finally died. Battery went flat and immobiliser came on and now won't start. Tax and MOT ran out and it needs some welding so probably uneconomical to fix. So, I am considering buying a 1997 P38 and was planning to go and have a look at one today. I...

I have got a Land Rover Discovery 2.0 MPI (dont laugh!!) that I just cant get to start!! It was running fine , starting first time every time until I left it for a couple of weeks. The battery went flat and after charging it it wouldnt start. I assumed it was an issue with the immobiliser...

I have an L registered Disco 2.0 MPI. The battery went flat and now it appears to be immobilised. I have recharged the battery and there is no fuel getting through and no spark at the plugs. I have tried the alarm reset procedure to no avail. I assume I need to reset the immobiliser but...

When I first got the Disco (L plated 2.0 MPI) the back door had the broken spring issue. I replaced this and now I can open the door from the outside with the key. The central locking from the remote has never worked (despite trying the reset technique, battery replacement etc) but the back door...

The transfer box has a good coating of oil all over it and I can smell warm gear oil after we have been for a run. I have done a search and it looks like there is a common problem with leaking oil seals? Are there 2 oil seal or just one? I have read busters post and I can see how one of the...

I have had a draper socket set for years and its come in really handy but now the blown plastic case is beyond repair and so I am looking for a toolchest. I am not a hard core mechanic like a lot of you guys so I dont need snap on tools etc but I was just wondering what you might recommend as...

Planning on doing an oil change on the landy this morning. Both engine oil and gearbox oil. As I dont have a manual I have no idea what oil I need and how much is needed. Anyone able to help? Thanks D

Just wondering whether there are known issues relating to the clutch / gearbox on the Disco? There is a snatch as I dip the clutch to change gear and generally its all just a bit more clunky and noisy than I am used to. I guess the gearbox is worn but was wondering whether changing the gerabox...

I took the carpet out the back of my Disco 1 recently to inspect the floor. This is what I found:- This doesnt look too bad to me, here are a couple more:- The worst bit..... The seatbelt mount:- The right hand side.... All in all it doesnt look too bad but...

Hi all. I am a newbie land Rover Discovery 1 owner having just bought one for towing the kids motorbikes around in a trailer. Its a 1993 2.0 mpi in black and in reasonable condition for its year and I never paid a lot for it so I am quite happy with what I have got so far. That said here is...
