It is a shame so many folk, and not just farmers do not take basic care of their vehicles. A good clean underneath once a year and when dry a spray of preservative goes a long way. I was doing similar work on mine recently and all bolts that...

Temperature sensor is original one, just struggling to get it out. Will change it asap. Thank You

Ok I've got the retainer ring in place. I made a tool to turn the ring using a socket set while pushing down.

It will run with the engine running if you bash the heater box,, poor connection inside most likely. I will try a separate earth at some point before the heater box comes out.

If you erase the codes do they all come back after a ride? The title is about suspension and only one code is related to that, possible causes attached:

What's the best place to start?? Cheers

Anyone with any idea? Compressor I have seen doing research but just wanted to be sure before I start stripping the car

You may have two issues. If you are sure are not actually overheating with your thermometer readings 70 something at the top of rad and lower at the bottom hose is good. With engine hot and rad cap off [careful opening up, slow with thick cloth...

Do you think I can remember where I put the valley gasket clamp bolts? Not a chance. It feels like nothing fits. Also, is the correct order (from top to bottom) clamp, seal, gasket? My RAVE manual seems to skip straight from rocker cover to...

Hello, I have a problem with my Freelander. There is an error p0705 on the gearbox. I have found eleutrocircuits, checked the socket on the axp and realised that the problem is in the wiring, there is no power to the inhibitor. Can you please...

The barrel collapsed on my D2, which I had to change but this wasn't sudden. It became Increasingly difficult over a few months. Removed shroud and drilled bolts out from above to change.

Hi there, I’ve been lurking for some time as I’ve been looking at disco 1-2 but not really got a chance to get hands on with anything. Been fixing my own cars for 20 years, mostly French stuff, some Japanese and latterly some German. So...

Hello from france ! I'm sincerely sorry for my English. ;) I can no longer use my car key remote to open and close the doors. The battery in the remote is new. So I suspect the RF Receiver. And I wanted to know if there should be a ground or...

Will have another look later at the weekend 😕

hi thanks for the replies. according to the manual for my solar trickle charger 'This trickle charger will NOT overcharge your battery! ' its a 2.5w 12v panel plugged into the 12v socket in the centre console. the garage that do my service said...

No, it's not

Then you really need a diagnostics session cos it can be the MAP sensor at fault especially it's IAT side but this can be checked only with live data or eventually there is a fault code for it... though that's just a guess unless you want to...

If it only runs when other stuff is off, could it be that the fan motor is trying to ground though somthing that is being pulled "high" when the other stuff is running? I would start by running a temporary ground from the heater, to a known good...

Just washed me burd feeder.

As usual the problem is in the least accessible part, inside the heater box. I used wire wiggling and bashing things as part of my diagnosis. Bash the heater box and it will work.

That's poor, where did you buy it and was it meant to be oem?

Suns oot, chilly wind tho. The old saying dont shed a clout till May is oot. :)

Agreed, diagnostic read is the way to go but does anyone know if the warning light flashes in sequence ? I recall X-Type Jags had a flash sequence that indicated which circuit. Slightly OT I know, just curious.

You got a link to these fittings? I was also thinking of doing this.

Hi. Not loosing coolant. Rad reads around 70 with the thermometer. Thermostat kicks in and works.

I'm about to go through a similar process on my tub...more or less. Two questions: What adhesive are you using to bond the panels? Having used it, would you recommend or use it again?

Morning All. :D Colder today than of late. :( Have a nice day. :D

It should have a lower engine mount they all do...
