I recently bought a Wild Bear wraparound rear diff guard. It came supplied with 2 M10 bolts to fasten one end to the existing holes in the underside of the diff but when I came to fit it the bolts were too wide. I tried an M8 but it was too loose. So does anyone know what the correct thread for...

As I was apparently a good boy last year Santa brought me a snorkel for the disco. I'm looking to fit it in the next week or two and I've assembled all the necessary tools and have come to the problem of sealant. Research on LZ and elsewhere suggests 3 alternatives 1. Ordinary bathroom...

I'm going to change the P-gasket behind the water pump next week and thought I may as well do the core plug next to it at the same time, but for the life of me cannot find any reference to it's size. So does anyone know what size said plug is? The engine is a 300Tdi.

The Disco decided it didn't want to start last week, turning over but not firing. A bit of trial and error revealed the fuel shut off solenoid wasn't working. Fast forward a week and I've fitted a new one (How much of an f'ing bind is that?) Starts up no problem but runs on when the ignition...

I need to replace the centre silencer for the MOT and I'm trying to find out what size the sealing ring is that goes between the silencer and the cat pipe. I've tried searching on here and googling but I cannot find out. Does anyone know, before I start pulling out what little hair I've got...

So I bought myself a set of +50mm braided hoses as I've lifted it and the rubber ones were beginning to look a bit tired. I thought I'd bought the correct kit for my motor (96 300Tdi, no ABS) with 3 pipes in however when I got to fitting the rear one I find I've got two pipes at the back. I'm...

I'm putting a pair of 100w wipacs on the front of my 300 and I'd be most appreciative if someone could check I'm about to use the correct cables before I set the whole thing on fire. So this is what I've calculated should be sufficient... From the battery positive to the relay (pin 30) 27 amp...

I've been offered a set of (oldish) wheels and tyres. The tyres are 6.00x16 and on standard SWB series rims. Would these fit staright onto a Disco 1? By my reckoning the tyres are about equivelant to 205/80 r16 which are the standard disco fitment. It would be quite handy if it worked as I could...

Do all Disco 1s use the same front indicator lense? More specifically, can a lense from a '92 200 replace the cracked unit on my '96 300? Thanks in advance for any help.

I'm soon going to replace my front bumper with a steel jobby to improve the approach angle. As my disco has front fogs this is going to leave me with a spare switch in the cab attached to some wires. I was wondering if I would be able to re-route these wires up to the roof and power 4 spots on a...

Hi everyone, I've just joined the forum and thought it polite to introduce myself. I'm Mick (or Michael if any of you happens to be my mother...) and by the weekend I'll (hopefully) be a Discovery owner. I did quite a bit of off roading years ago in an old Fourtrak but I've never had a Landy. My...

I'm going to look at a Discovery at the weekend with a view to hopefully buying it. However as a Land Rover noob I don't know what I should be looking out for. It's a 96 300Tdi so I'm not so much worried about dings and (some) rust but more about the things that would cost a packet to fix or...
