As my part of the world seems to be having the wettest Autumn/early Winter for a very long time, naturally my thoughts turn to keeping the water out of my none sun roof (before you ask) Discovery 300tdi. The current door seals seem to be the stick on variety and are a little weedy. I could...

Not to make your Land Rover fly, that would be silly! But located in sunny Kingston upon Thames I have a pair of Land Rover Series 3 front wings (not Discovery) for sale. In need of a refurbish, with the mud shields to be replaced or repaired, they are currently painted Limestone with tread...

I have just bought a 300tdi Disco without the 3rd row seats, well not really in a row but you know, the ones that fold up in the boot. I want to install the fold up seats from my old 200tdi (going on sale soon!) however and with limited investigation, there doesn't seem to be any fixings for...

Good Morning clever Land Rover people. Winter is coming and my battery is getting weaker...So which battery and which battery supplier would you recommend for my very useful 200tdi Disco? There is nothing trixie about my car, one battery only, no winches, no spot lights. Its just a standard...

Hi all My beautiful 3 door, none sunroof, 200tdi needs a brake overhaul and I am debating what to do with my calipers. Rebuild or replace? My discs will have to be replaced as they are wawffer thin. I have no plans to do any extreme off roading, that's what my mountain bike is for. So I am not...

Hi Folks Here's a good problem for all clever electrickery types out there. With my headlights at the dipped position my offside light is correctly dipped but my nearside light is on full beam, when I turn my lights to full beam the offside correctly switches to full beam but nearside is now...

My newish alternator has developed an annoying whine and before shelling my Xmas money I was wondering is there a cure...or is it better to buy a new one? If I buy a new one which, in your opinion, is the best for a standard none modified family Disco?

So I was picking up some ATF at my local auto factors, for my LT77 gearbox, and the bloke behind the counter said I should mix in a bit of EP90 'for extra bite' ! Is he talking nonsense or sense? If sense how much do you mix in?

I saw this chunky monkey last Saturday on the A1 near Ferry Bridge, Yorkshire. Sort of cool in a SUV way. Excuse the blury Iphone pic

Up for sale is my old 2.5 n/a diesel engine 12J.....spares and repairs on this one. I bought it second hand about 12 years ago for use in my 109. It did sterling service until it developed an oil pressure problem which I assumed was cylinder ring wear, I then swapped it for a 200tdi. Anyway it...

So I have just had my 200tdi D1 clutch replaced by a reputable garage near to where I live. All seems good, gears change, no crunches etc The only thing is when I depress the clutch at anything over 20 mph you get a wurlling sound, not too loud or unpleasant. I am guessing its the release...

Now I have a theory and it goes something like this: The Discovery 1 has a similar place in Land Rover's history as does the 1949 Series 1 but moved on 40ish years. Similar to the Series 1 it is a vehicle that, for it's time, was ground braking, simple to fix, versatile and therefore incredibly...

Oh you lucky people here is my old Disco 300tdi and its for sale. 11 months, 2 months tax and loads of things to repair and fiddle with....check out my ebay listing below for more details. Location Kingston upon Thames. The ebay reserve is £ 850....so if you offer me that its yours! Thanks for...

What ya Disco divas, I have a question.... You know those small black fuels lines/pipes that push fit at the top of the engine? Not the main pipes. The one that returns(?) fuel from the injectors to the fuel pump for instance...Is there a secret way to getting them to push home? Mine broke...

Petrol heads look away now! So in the world of Discovery's the general rule of thumb is that a 200tdi is a simpler, less electronic version of the 300tdi...Is this the same in the world of Range Rovers Classics? And if so what other intresting differences are there between the two types?? Andy

Well not really. Has this ever happen to you? You are zooming (well 65mph) up the motorway when your engine decides to cut out, then after sitting on the hardshoulder for 10 mins your engine starts and you continue your journey...10 mins later the process continues, engine cut out then later...

I have a 300 TDI disco and am thinking of upgrading (?) to a Defender 300 TDI. When my Disco has a problem it always seems to be something to do with the electrics/computers/immobilizer etc. Or rust! My spannering skills are far better than my computer diognoistic silks so maybe now is the...

So I am getting to the point where I after owning a 109 and a Discovery feel the need for a Defender, well who wouldn't? Now funds are limited and I am looking at either shagged TDIs or in better condition but (sometimes) cheaper TDs.....but I am concerned about the 2.5TD engine, should I be...

What ho. My Disco 1 carries a fair of weight most of the time, if not the landscaping and gardening tools (cement mixers, bags of sand etc.) I use then its full of kids, tents and with two 14 ft canoes on the roof. In fact its doing just what Discos are designed to do. My rear suspension has...
