I have a 1982 model Series 3 SWB station wagon with mainly metric nuts and bolts. When the move to metric was made in 1980, did Land Rover upgrade the accessory toolkit from the pre 1980 version with mainly A/F spanners to make a similar one available but with metric metric spanners? I’ve been...

The 5 main bearing 2,25 diesel from a Series 3 that’s fitted in my Series 2A has had fuel problems for the past couple of months when starting from cold. It starts almost straight away each day from cold with some heat applied but stops after about 4 seconds. It then turns over for ages with...

My Series 3, 5mb 2.25 Diesel engine has had the injector pump timed by trial and error. It now seems about right with no knock on acceleration under load with minimal black smoke. However it white smokes a lot on the over-run. When out of gear and after the throttle has been blipped it white...

My speedo and mileometer are under-reading by about 23%. I’ve discovered that I have 3.54:1 ‘90’ diffs fitted front and rear. This is also bourne out by there being no oil filler plug in either the rear axle casing or diff housing. As far as I know I have a standard 2A gearbox and transfer box...

My 1983 SWB Station Wagon is minus its door cards. I was going to buy a set from Exmoor trim, then noticed the holes around the edges of the door which look like they are for fixing clips. Does anyone produce replacement trims which can be fixed on using a concealed clip? Also I'm missing...

I'm trying to obtain replacement rear exhaust sections for my 2007 Disco 3 2.7 auto to fit myself. Have been a bit put off by LR dealer prices. Is there another exhaust supplier who will provide these at more reasonable prices and is able to send to me through the post? thanks, Edward.

I have a 2007 Discovery 3 HSE auto. For the past couple of weeks I've noticed that I sometimes lose forward drive and have to pull the change lever back to re-engage even though it seems to be in the correct position. Has been getting slowly worse. Today I had to hold the change lever back...

I have a 2007 Disco 3 Auto diesel which is a great vehicle but kind of does everything for itself. I'm thinking of buying also a Series III for short journeys and a bit of off-road use. I'd prefer a diesel but am told the 2.25 litre standard unit isn't the greatest and can have starting...
