You are lucky I finally fixed my Disco 1 TDI 300 auto edc even managed to replace the dreaded rare injector with a recon one and spend something like £2000 fixing her up and now I have to sell her lol.....sigh. And for what? probably the same money I paid £1700 if I'm lucky. Got me through the...

Yeah its really nice and liked you're build thread think money is tight for a lot of people and only thing I'd have to offer is a 2005 Honda Accord Type S. 2.4 problem is I think the wife would end my life in my sleep if I did it lol. :)

And me too please! :)

This is exactly the issues I am having with my Disco 1 EDC auto 97 model Jap import. I have replaced all fuses and tested all the relays I am having to assume its the MFU which I have bought a replacement for and will put on in the next week.

Right so been to the local landie specialists and it seems my 4th injector is buggered and of course its the dreaded ERR3337. As mine is an EDC auto. So.............Am I screwed? Any ideas? Anyone with a spare? Anyone know a good place to recondition?............ Thanks in advance for any...

Its the abs if he unplugs it the pedal will work fine as will his brakes seen this on mine of course he wont have abs then though. :)

Right so various things done on my Disco 1 Tdi 300 Auto Jap EDC flybywire Jap import. Brass plugs put on the engine, new p-gasket, new water pump, newbelts and tensioners, Steering rack and panhard bushes. Then I get a load of stuff and start doing some work myself the above was a...

Trying to figure out what paint colour I need as there are a few sanding, priming and painting jobs I need to crack on with before rust eats Bertha (yes my disco). Under the bonnet there is a little japenese writing etc and a blank plate where you would usually find the paint code so that...

Well Im still pretty pleased with myself, Changed the air, oil, fuel filter, Glow plugs and oil change, Thermostat and Temp sensor near thermo. All in all good day.

Well yeah I figured that I could do it that way but that means it isnt blanked off at the manifold and that I wouldnt be using the new top hose that comes in the kit does any of this make a difference and why do I have all these extra's and am I going to get any benefit at all from this lol.

I look at all the diagrams and easy how to's etc online and then I see a whole mess of s**t and pipes that all the pics and how to's didnt show when I was bloody looking. So what do I do here?.........

So went to change the lift pump yeah...........not so good I cannot get the compression fittings to budge!!!! Ended up doing pathetic things like changing the battery and Temp sensor sigh.

I'm most impressed by what looks like a Neopolitan mastiff. :) I have an English Mastiff X Neo myself :)

lol probably had my head in the engine bay muttering didnt know you ment second hand MAF dont see much of a point most of the time you can clean the contacts open up the unit bend the tracking arm a little to put it on a new track seal it with some silicon and hey presto they work again as good...

MAF I can take apart and fix the one there and Im sure it is a faulty sensor I havent had the car long give me a chance sheesh lol. The reason I have unplugged the ABS is to make sure that is the reason my brakes have been failing so I need a week to make sure my theory was correct as for...

Well I havent even been here long and I can vouch that the OP is a total moron. My friends series 3 is going along nicely still we replaced the piston on his front brake yesterday easy enough job even for a ham fisted smash em to bits type that I am. My Disco so far not so bad more out of...

Oh trust me Im very used to looking at the long term I had an old Porsche that took me 4 years just to get working and £9000 to get back on the road lol. Then I sold it for £2000............ Yeah best not to ask. My main issues right now is the still present sqeek especially when it warms...

Tis all in perspective I guess but when you buy one for £1500 then spend £1000 to get it fixed and then find it still has loads of issues well..................It means I'm a MUG! yay me!!!!! I never do follow my intuition wish I did my whole life would have run better anyway for the time...

This one comes closest to how I would describe it :) And yes it looks ok but looks can be decieving lol It's not the worst ever disco but it needs a fair amount of work. Oh the spot lights were not my doing and I will be removing them and the middle one isnt wired up and none of them work lol.

Sigh so much work to do........where to begin......
