Hi all,
I want to take out the V8 3.9 and install a 300 TDi in my auto Disco, can any one tell me whats needed please?
Obviously exhaust, diesel filter etc, but what about gearbox fittings etc, and is it worth the expence/hassle?
Cheers

you would need a 300tdi auto box or manual gearbox ,rad assembly new mounts welded to chassis ,unplug wiring loom for engine system from near clutch pedal and either make your own up for tdi or get one

I had a look at doing this when i had my PofW MPi. It's doable, but unless the bodywork is really exceptional I wouldn't bother.
