    ?Bend track rod and end?

    This is another photo taken by positioning the camera directly underneath the track rod. I hope that bend in the rear rod is normal!!

    ?Bend track rod and end?

    Disco 1998 Tdi auto: I had the track rod end replaced in December and to me it now looks bent, also the track rod itself looks bent near the dubious rusty bit. I took it to my garage today (who fitted the new end) and they said there is nothing wrong with it and it is normal. The Disco also...

    Who can cure ABS problems?

    I don't know, a garage (LR specialist) did the diagnostics for me and told me the only fault showing was the right front sensor, which has now been replaced and re-checked but I'm still getting ABS light on intermittently and when its not on I sometimes get ABS activation when I don't need it...

    Who can cure ABS problems?

    I have spent over £200 on diagnostics and a new right front sensor only for the problem to recurr a few days later and ABS activating intermittently on light braking. The garage I bought it from also checked it with diagnostic tools and drove it for 70 miles (during which the ABS light did not...

    Hi again, I reposted this as I understand the first posting was in a section where my question would be deleted. Sorry for confusing you.

    Who can cure ABS problems?

    Hi I am looking for someone in the Greater Manchester area to cure my 1998 auto Discovery 1 ABS problems once and for all. Otherwise, I am going to sell it and get a Jap 4x4 instead. Can someone help please, I think it is disgusting that Land Rover have allowed us all to suffer this problem with...

    Towing horse trailer

    I know this reply is a few months late, but thanks everyone for your advice. After months of researching various 4x4s, I am getting a Disco this week. Just need to find the best insurance deal now.

    Towing horse trailer

    Hi again all I need some advice now about towing a horse trailer. Which is best manual or auto (Disco 2.5L)? I have read conflicting advice. Some feel that the autos are 'pushed' downhill when towing because of lack of engine braking, and others don't like the thought of a possible roll...

    Air Bags?

    Thanks for the advice. I'm beginning to recognise which Disco's have airbags and which don't now.

    Air Bags?

    I have changed an air filter and an air inlet hose on a Hilux lol. Getting back to Discos, I have found a mechanic who specialises in Land Rovers. He completely revamps geriatrics - whatever needs doing, including welding, exhausts, whole boot floor replacements, etc and services them (oil...

    Air Bags?

    They must have advertised it as a 200 tdi by mistake. Obviously it doesn't have a passenger airbag then as it has the grab handle. Thanks for your help. I'm looking for a Discovery as I want to tow a horse trailer, but as it will be my only vehicle I'm hoping to get one with the airbags for...

    Air Bags?

    So if it has the handle on the dashboard, it doesn't have a passenger airbag?

    Air Bags?

    Also, am I right in thinking that the models without airbags are those with the handle on the dashboard on the passenger side. I've noticed some don't have this handle but a casing in stead and wondered if this is where the passenger airbag is??

    Air Bags?

    Thanks for the reply, but I'm more confused now as there are two 200 tdi's 1998 on Autotrader, I was thinking of going to look at one but really want a model (300 or 200 or Td5 if cheap enough) with twin airbags. One of the 200's on Autotrader is fairly local, so thought I'd take a look...
