A friend has a split in his TDI200 turbo hoses. He has bought a set of Silicone hoses to replace the damaged ones (you know these flashy blue things). Anyway there are only 3 pipes in the new Silicone kit and 4 pipes in the original configuration. I presume that the longer blue pipe is...

This question is in parts: 1) My heater wouldn't pump out any heat, after jumping in the engine bay and physically moving the selector over on the heating box it workedm very well (serious heat)... until my fan stopped 5 minutes later. Has the sudden heat f**Ked something up or is the fan...

My clutch pedal has suddenly lost any resistance, normally depressing the clutch is a heavy task, now a small toddler could do it, its soft and has no resistance. I can change gear - although the bite point is approx 1mm off the floor but its difficult. No clutch fluid leaks or odd noises. I...

I have a Disco 1 1994 TDI 200, when I first got it the handbrake didn't really work (you had to pull it through the roof to make the transmission brake engage... and leave it in gear). I took the brake to pieces to find it was full of grease. I cleaned it up, shut it up and it worked...

When I hit 60mph the steering wheel shakes, not just a little, it moves around 3-6cm in both directions. if I hold the steering wheel very tightly the vibration can still be felt further down the steering colomn. Yet if I loosen my grip the steering wheel goes crazy but the wheels still drive a...

Hi Guys, Thanks for all the help so far, it's all going well. My Disco TDI200 ('93 - 160k miles) has its MOT in a month. Can you give me a list of common failures on a Disco and what I should be looking for? I mean everything - because I've spent a small fortune (and a whole lot of time) on...

Hi All, I have finally got round to introducing myself, I've had a Disco TDI200 for 6 months. I've been using the forum quite a bit for help with my Lanie probs. CHEERS FOR ALL YOUR HELP SO FAR! ;) I live and work in Wiltshire, decided to finally get a landie after having to borrow a mates...

When my engine has warmed up and I drop below 1000 (basically when I idle) the oil light comes on, as I accelerate the light fades. I presume this is a pump issue. What should I hit with a hammer? :D Sorry for the bulk of questions tonight, but many many miles over the Xmas period have...

My rear wiper, rear dimister, rear fog don't work? I have replaced the wiper motor and the fog light bulb, still nothing. All electrics in the door and in the light cluster look fine, is there any way of identifying which wires link to these near the fuses and switches under the driver console...

Just did a 1200 mile trek in my TDI200 - up to scotland, round scotland, back down and round the country :) . All going perfectly until I hit the M1 :( on the way back... the rear shock absorber mount (the welded part on the axle) totally snapped off the axle. I got it back to the garage...

I need to get extra lift on my Discovery, every time I go out with my chums in their Defenders I bottom out (they have sooo much more clearance), but (as we all know) the car is costing me a fortune in many other ways, thus I'm after an affordable way of getting the height. Is it possible to...

A very very big man decided to force my stuck Diff Selector Stick (inside the Cab) to move when it was well and trully jammed. He got it to move out of HIGH RATIO, only problem is that now I cannot engage LOW RATIO (locking diff stills works in HIGH ONLY). I've re-aligned the multi-spline cog...

<<I've checked through all the threads - but if anyone has already answered this; sorry for the re-question.>> My TDI200 shakes heavily after the ignition is turned off; it lasts for around 2 seconds and makes the entire car thud around. I have changed the exhaust system, checked the timing...
