May I appeal to the collective knowledge on this forum please? Does anyone know of a supplier of box section for the sills with body mounts fitted already? I repaired my previous one but have now bought another which is excellent apart from the sills and I am getting too old to weld it up on the...

May I ask the advice of more experienced Discovery owners? I have just had the clutch replaced on my 96 300 TDi, new plate, cover, bearing and HD clutch arm. Unfortunately the arm was fitted without slipper pads so the box has to come back out. Pedal only has action from halfway down travel. I...

Put an MG TF wheel on my 300TDI as well, loads better than the original. Cut down the indicator self cancelling bit and bonded it to the back of the MG wheel. I took out the airbag and used a hole cutter to remove the MG badge and bonded in the original Horn push from the disco (altered the...

Sorry to possibly hijack thread a bit, appreciate advice on pads and discs but I think my calipers could do with replacing as well. Prices seem to vary from about £40 odd to about £125 each. Does anyone have any advice to offer, how about a cheap set and then rebuilding originals with s/steel...

Hope someone can advise with this, I've got as far as I can. 2003 TD6 auto with 111000 miles. Car shows Trans Failsafe Prog on display, drives perfectly changes gears normally but will not select low range. In neutral, pull back switch, nothing happens at all. I have had the motor off, cleaned...

Thanks for the reply Discool, explains fuses. Probably I didn't explain well, after removing resistor connection sidelights position was just sidelights with engine running, replaced connection, still just sidelights. No dull glow from dip filaments. Quite happy to lose dim/dip, never use it...

My 96 300 TDi has suddenly lost dip beam. I have read all of the threads I can find on here but none seem to relate so can I ask some more experienced members for advice. So far I have found there is no power to fuses 10 & 11 no matter which position light switch is in, 30 amp fuse under bonnet...

Sorry if I offended anyone, genuinely pleased with my bumper. They were as good as they could be with me, ordered Tuesday, arrived Friday.

Just spent the last 6 months repairing all the rust in my 96 Disco 300 Tdi, wanted to share details of my new winch bumper. Didn't really intend to fit one but took off the old one to derust and basically it fell apart. So the choice was a new one for £105 or look at a heavy duty one. I...

Hi, Duncan here,looked at this as a guest for ages, joined when I had a big problem. Many thanks to Discool for his genius. Had 3 Disco 1s, traded 1 for another, then chased rust round it for a while until my current 300 TDi came along. Cut up 200 for £5 less than the 300, Result. Sadly now...

Thank you all for your help, replaced headlight plugs and bulbs and then there was light. If only everything was as simple, apart from me making it difficult. Now all I have to do is fix all the rust, drain and refill PAS, replace dampers, stop alpines leaking, and shortly replace 4 tyres. Used...

OK, now the fob works as well, just got to put it all back together, Oh and fix the b****y lights, but I shall sleep well tonight thanks to your advice. Will now go and fill in my profile and say hello to everyone. Thanks again for the help.

You Sir, are a genius. Just tried that, started fine, fob is still not working but the car is now usable until it is light enough for me to have a proper fiddle with it. I obviously have clattered it, though I wasn't using my favourite tool, a hammer. Can't thank you enough.

Hello, 'fraid my fob doesn't now have any effect though it did 15 mins earlier, before I drove home and messed about with the relays. Will have to pinch wife's car, then try and sort this out at weekend. Fortunately know a few people who deal in L/Rs, one breaks them so he may have some "new"...

Bugger, that didn't work!

Just read my Haynes manual (not always the best source of info) and it seems there is an alarm relay in the pass. footwell. As I had 3 relays and 4 sockets wonder if I have simply put 1 back in the wrong position, I'm guessing if no power through relay to ECU then that could trigger the alarm to...

Hi, thanks for quick reply, just the flashing, alarm sounder disconnected by previous owner some time before I got it.Additional symptoms, will not lock or unlock with remote, Immobiliser has shut down everything though worked fine up until this point. It's a 96 300TDI 3door, VIN...

Hi, Hope someone can help, had Discos for years and had the usual problems, tonight feel like setting fire to it! Dip beam has started playing up so having read all threads decided to try and find Dim/dip relay in pass. footwell. All going well, found relay, disconnected, made no difference...
