I've just bought a Disco TDi 300 from my brother, a trust worthy source?? its a 1994 with 105000 on the clock. Very happy and had much fun in the snow...
I took it for a short run from bucks to manchester and on my return I had trouble getting it into gear (1st, 2nd and 3rd). Also, it was making a nasty noise when in neutral which goes when I put the clutch down (gearbox input shaft maybe). What's this "cross drilled (or not) transfer shaft" thing? Is it something to do with that?
I've been reading the forum stuff about the gearbox thing...Can anyone diagnose my problem? Do I need to get and new gearbox? Will I also need a transfer box? Should I smack my brother?
Oh yes and it does make lots of clunking noises...
Lastly, how much should I have paid for it? I'd say it was in average condition, its got sunroofs, no air con, electric windows and mirrors which actually work.
Please help, and thanks
