Hi, I had my transfer box replaced today, from a 1.2 ratio to a 1.4 ratio. 300tdi manual. LT230 transfer box. I've just noticed that it is leaking oil where the transfer box meets the gearbox - I'm thinking it's the input seal - thoughts? Would it leak like this if it was slightly over full? Foz

Hi Can I buy these kind of headlight guards new anywhere - or are they no longer being produced? I'd really like some. Cheers.

Hi guys, A couple of months ago when I last went off-roading, on the way home my Disco developed a squeal from under the bonnet - i didn't think anything of it and thought i'd just have to replace a bearing or something. Many weeks pass, and I keep forgetting that it makes this horrible...

Hi, I have a standard 1.2 ratio transfer box in my manual 300tdi Disco 1, and I have a replacement 1.4 ratio transfer box from a defender - as i have bigger tyres I want a better ratio for drivability. I rang a garage today that specialises in gearboxes for a quote on labour to replace the...

Hi guys, Generally I'm happy to have a go at anything on my Disco (300tdi), but changing a clutch and replacing the transfer box aren't things I want to tackle - I've picked up a transfer box and they are bloody heavy. Cannot imagine how heavy the gearbox is! Roughly, how much do you think I...

For sale is my 335i - I'm very reluctant to sell this car, but I'm saving for a house so sadly it has to go. I've had this car almost 2 years and it has been brilliant - I cannot fault this car. 2007 335i 3.0 twin turbo E92, with M sport styling in black. The car is an automatic. Full Service...

Hi guys, The indicators on my D1 have stopped working - The hazards work absolutely fine. Am I right in thinking I need a new stalk? Cheers Foz

I blew up the rear diff in my 300tdi Discovery a couple of weeks ago. I'm in need of a replacement. 10 or 24 spline - makes no difference to me! Matching half shafts would be a bonus. I'm located in Medway - I'd prefer to collect locally. Thanks, Foz

Hi guys, I was offroading earlier today, and I went up a steep incline and there was a loud bang - i assumed it was something hitting the floor. I got out and had a look and everything seemed fine - i then realised I only had drive to the front wheels. How can I diagnose if it's half shaft or...

I'm after a LT230 transfer box with a 1.4 ratio to improve the gearing on my 300tdi Discovery. I'm based in Medway, Kent. Has anyone local got one? Thanks Foz

Hi, I have a rear worklight that I want to wire up to a switch, but I need to run a wire through the body. What is the best way to achieve a watertight fitting for a wire through the body? Thanks, Foz

Hi, I have 33" tyres on my Disco now, I know they aren't huge but at some point i'd like to do something about the gearing. I'm not very good with gear ratios and such, so I'm seeking some advise from you guys. I feel it would be easier to change the gearing in the diffs, rather than the...

Hi, I have a 300tdi Discovery. A few weeks back I had overheating problems. The gauge was going in to the red, and the only way to get it down was to turn the heaters on full. I replaced the thermostat (and housing) and that fixed the problem - or so i thought. A couple of days ago I was...

Hi, My winch was working perfectly fine, I removed it to have the front bumper modified and painted, put the winch back together and there is now a problem with it. The problem is inside the little control box. When I press "out" on my remote, the control box will click a couple of times. If i...

Hi, I've been considering an air compressor for my garage, and an impact wrench to help with some of those hard to undo bolts, and to just make general life easier working on the Land Rover. My knowledge on air compressors isn't great, neither my knowledge on impact wrenchs - so I'm hoping...

I have a Southdown/Terrafirma tnak guard fitted to my D1 but i'm missing the detachable towing drop plate. Like this - if anyone has the drop plate they fancy selling let me know. Thanks, Foz

Hi, I raised the body on my D1 by 2 inches a couple of weeks ago - I did buy some bumper relocation brackets but they weren't very thick so I won't use them - I'm pretty sure if I used my winch it would rip the bumper off. Where can I get a decent set of bumper relocation brackets? Has...

Hi, 300tdi, manual. After i hit about 50mph and I'm still (trying) to accelerate, i get a vibration. Very noticable, it's like sitting in a massage chair! If i'm doing faster, perhaps 70mph and lift of the throttle the vibration goes completely. This is the same for any speed really, lift off...

Hi, I have a Karcher K2 and i've had it for a couple of years. The problem is it's not good enough to blast the thick mud from the underside of my Disco after going off roading. The specs say its max water pressure is 110 bar. Does anyone have any recommendations for a better, more powerful...
