I posted this http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f37/rangies-can-swim-83053.html in the anything goes section but I thought it may appeal to some in here also. Cheers

I've done a search and found a few different threads relating to replacing sills on Discovery (97, 300TDi). Having a poke around mine before it goes of for MOT, I found a hole in the rear passenger side sill. No problem, just patch it up and job's a good 'un. Having previously checked the...

Anyone out there on their way North past Cannock? Need a part picking up in Cannock and delivering to either Preston, Blackpool or Lancaster. If anyone is in a position to help, PM me with dates and we can chat about tea, biscuits, chippies, manicures:eek:, or just plain beer tokens. Cheers

Finally, after many months of dittering, waiting for decent weather, no free weekends cos the biatch can't be arsed with the kids, etc :frusty:- the disco is running again!:banana: What should have been a simple weekends work of swapping engine and box from a scrapper into mine took a little...

Just about to finish off putting a new engine and box in my Disco when I found that the nut box was empty and there is still one gearbox mounting to bolt down. Anyone know what size the nuts are that hold the rubber mount to the chassis? The car is not at my home so it would be a pain to...

I'm in the middle of an engine and box swap on my 96 300TDi. I've taken the engine and box from an earlier 300 but the loom is a little different. I'm not good with the electrics so what's the easiest option between these? Swap over the 96 loom to the earlier engine? Leave the earlier loom on...

I'm in the middle of removing the engine from my 96 300TDi. It's taking an awful lot longer than I thought as it appears that the wiring loom needs lots of disconnecting. Both Haynes and Rave state that the engine loom can be detached simply by opening two multiplugs under the dash. However...

Should have a replacement engine coming for the one blown up by the doris. What I'd like to know from all the knowledgable folk on here is which is the best way to do the swap over - engine and box or engine only? The donor I've got has a rebuilt gearbox so ideally, I'd like to swap that...

This is what the doris has done to my motor!!! Does anyone know where I can get an engine or rotten but running 300TDi? Need it sharpish as I have to get to work next week and pick the kids up on Saturday. Might have to bite the bullet and follow in the footsteps of HB and Grippa:eek: :eek:

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of helping out a mate bailing hay off his land. There were a few of us there and each turned up in various vehicles. I had my 300TDi Disco, there was a Nissan Terrano and an Isuzu L200. The Nissan arrived and promptly lost its clutch getting into the field. Strike...

Just thought I'd let everyone know about another scam doing the rounds. It's not Landy related but the more people who are aware of it, the less likely the thieving b*******s are to make any cash out of it. The site it takes you to is impressively genuine looking (but only if you've got decent...

Got some leccy seats from a rangie to put into my Disco. I saw a really good article on how to fit them once but can't find it again. Anybody seen anything like? Also, what's the best way to wire them up? (direct feed or loads of relays/new loom) Ta

Hi to all. I hope someone can help here. Already done a search but not found an answer to my questions. Yesterday, I did a round trip of 120miles to pick my kids up. Disco has been serviced and was running well. Just as I pulled up outside my home, the steering stopped being powered (and no...

One cause for non-working rear electric windows Fixing non functional rear windows

I've done a quick search but couldn't find a similar thread so here goes. What about a section covering the most common faults with each vehicle? When I bought my disco, it had all the 'normal' faults with it including spider, rear windows and door lock springs. Now this forum has been...

Hi All,Been using your site for about 6 months to deal with all the problems running an old Disco and have been mightily impressed. Thought it only fair that I should join and hopefully be able to give some payback. So far, I've done the door locks (springs), window ECU and spider as well as the...
