Hi, just getting to grips with the 300 tdi in my disco. If I rev the engine, should I see the wastegate actuator arm move?

Any one any idea if a p38 or tdv8 intercooler offers more cooling than std 300tdi? Anyone fitted either one?

Hello all, I have an 02 gaylander with 17" rims. Dont like the 55 profile, harsh ride and succeptible (dunno if I've spelled that right) to kerbing (blame 'er indoors for that). What is the highest profile anyone has managed to fit on a 17 inch rim? Would a 235/65/17 be a possibility? I...

Couldnt find that this had been covered before, so here goes..... Having managed to get a set of 5 steelies off flea bay at a bargain price, imagine my surprise when the hub covers would have cost me more than the rims.... I was quoted around £20 EACH!!!!! I know how important it is to keep...

Prop bearings were u/s, so replaced them earlier this year, but left the Gaylander in Mondo mode over the summer. Marked up props when they were dropped. Now, since putting the props back on there is a rumbling, whining noise from the centre of the Gaylander, that wasnt there before. Used...

Has anyone tried one of these Omitec based Bearmach diagnostic tools? Considering buying one as sick of 3 amigos and so on on me Gaylander? Anyone know if they are worth getting hold of? Any info on experiences with them very welcome.

:confused::confused::confused::confused: I need to change the propshaft bearings on my 02 td4. Doesnt seem to be to great a task, but, and apologies if this has already been asked (I have searched, honest....) but why can you not take each prop off individually, then then remove VCU and...

Help!! I've tried searching, but to no avail.... The NSF caliper has started to stick on my 02 TD4 Gaylander. Sliders are OK, and greased up (looklike new) piston lovely clean and shiny. Replaced dust cover on piston and when I unbolt caliper, push ****pot back in and get someone to press...

Apologies if this has been covered already, but I have searched and couldn't find an answer... I have 225/55/17 Synchrones fitted at the minute- will 235/65/17 fit as a replacement. I know they are wider and slightly higher, but does anyone know if they can be shoe horned onto a standard (not...

After finding that the front bush on the rear diff is once again shagged, have found a supplier of polyurethane replacements. You have to remove the original rubber bush from the aluminium casing (bit of a pig), then repalce it with the poly bush. Supplier is Floflex Polyurethane Ltd. Bushes are...

This might have already been covered, but couldn't find owt, so... When turning a tight slow right turn (1st or 2nd gear usually) there seems to be a bit of a vibration from around the centre to the front of the gaylander. Thought about VCU/prop bearings? Am checking all mountings & bushes...

Hello all, Reversing lights packed up last night. Have checked both bulbs and are OK. Have also checked continuity of swith and me old tester beeps like a good un when reverse is selected, but doesn't give any reading for a voltage output. Fuse is OK. Could this still be the switch that is...

At what temperature should the FBH kick in? No mention of one even being fitted in handbook. Great. Is there any way of testing it?:confused:

:confused: I have a TD4 ESX with 225/55/17 tyres. Does anyone know of an all terrain or mud tyre available in this size? If not any ideas with regard to alternative sizes that will fit the rim, with similar/larger overall diameter? Wots the point of having a 4x4 (well Gaylander...) that...
