    k&n filter on a 300tdi?

    not my MOT tester...... he is actually a genuine guy! re: the tweak - i think i trust an ex development engineer to say it'll be fine (and if it struggles to pass an mot take it back and get it turned down again!!;)) he isn't gonna lie to a prospective customer with a 15 year old car - lets...

    k&n filter on a 300tdi?

    not so much power gains..... a disco aint really gonna win any drag races;) i was curious if it gave any benefits to breathing, fuel economy or anything else over a standard filter

    The Discovery 4

    what a shock! LR's only (or so it seems) designer strikes again..... crash a new freelander nose first into a new rangerover and paste over a disco3!!! I think landrover have lost the plot re: target audience with certain models. the discovery seems to have evolved into a 7 seat rangerover...

    k&n filter on a 300tdi?

    as above folks, are there any benefits of fitting a k&n to a 300 engine?? its currently running with a kenlowe fan, EGR blocked and the diesel pump is going to be tweaked in a week or two by an ex LR development engineer who is local to me. i'm just hoping to let the little fella breath...

    Cruise control and mpg

    completely dpeendant on the roads as mentioned above. my findings on a 500 mile round trip from knutsford to glasgow (CC on the way, no CC on the way back) on the way, with the cruise control i noticed that on downhill sections it would brake gradually to keep speed and have to work harder...

    Do without the airbox...??

    i know it had no detrimental effects on an old beetle engine if that helps!!! it wasn't a snorkel but the air intakes put into the rear wings (porsche911 style) woth a filter 1/2 way through then straight onto the carbs.

    300tdi bottom pulley 'loud'

    thought the grinding kinda noise was coming from the transmission somewhere at first but it appears to be the bottom pulley. is this going to be something related to the crank or does it just need a good greasing? (engine oil was done a few weeks back and level is fine.)

    300tdi oil light query

    just been on a longer run than my normal run to work and it was fine...... maybe it is just the switch but i'll check it out just to make sure. the engine doesn't seem (from the guage) to be running hot at all, it stays a fraction below halfway on the temp bar all the time.

    300tdi oil light query

    just changed the oil - everythings tight enough, no leaks anywhere, clean oil and plenty of it. when the engine gets hot then i stop and start idling the oil light will come on then go off again with the slightest increase in revs. is it possible this is just crud on the sensor (i did leave...

    Trick way to install satnav

    make a custom visor from scratch..... ebay a visor, strip it back to the framework, strengthen it, make the mount as mentioned from fiberglass or even try and get someone to vacum form some plastic around it! you would need to make a clip or similar to go into the map slot above it to hold it...

    Trick way to install satnav

    you could make a frame out of the thin square mesh used for rabbit hutch doors and layer it up with some fiber glass, paint it, couple of self tapping screws through the bottom to either the dash or in frint of the diff lever and roberts your mothers brother. i'm making a switch panel to fit...

    Parking sensors

    can't you just either..... A) learn to drive instead? or B) fit a towbar and double step 'just in case' instead of a beep when you get close you just stop when you hear the crunch!

    Water In Lights

    take them off, take out the bulbs, leave them to dry out properly. get some silicone sealant and a gun and seal the edges. it worked on my indicators, just make sure it dries out before you stick them back in to avoid the lamps getting glued in there for good
