    Forte engine flush

    I used it last month when I serviced me Td5 Disco, I had no idea when it had last been serviced and it was 2L short of oil, so clearly ages as it doesnt use any oil now I've refilled it. The drain was great and that service made a drastic difference, not saying it will to yours but you can't see...

    Series 3 Gearbox strip/replacement parts

    Thanks for the reply! Those baulk rings are they likely to be worn out or in need of replacement? Looking at paddocks theres a bearing kit for 15 quid, though its britpart :( and plenty of gasket sets and oil seals for cheap

    Disco 2 Alarm/C Locking help needed!

    Haha tbh I haven't looked into that department on the Hawkeye, that lot scares me, I've read somewhere that you can disable the alarm through the BCU with a Hawkeye maybe? Which will be useful until the key is sorted, as haven't answered the phone yet!

    Just noticed by going on the website that remote key sent me an EKA code when they refunded me for returning the programmer, oops. Don't think I noticed that, may help me out in future! :)

    Disco 2 What's that noise and should i fix it or get a remap first?

    I personally have noticed a slight improvement in MPG, and the driveability is totally different which might be why I've gained economy, as I can drive it economically much easier, its heaps smoother and even better to drive! I rang him to ask about his availability in the next month out of...

    Disco 2 What's that noise and should i fix it or get a remap first?

    As @neilly says, Mike at Dynachip will be probably the most reputable chap on landyzone, unless you have any other reason to go with someone else, you should give him a call, he did my Td5 this month and I couldn't be happier, he's the best value too. Intercoolers are big bucks and I dunno about...

    Disco 2 What's that noise and should i fix it or get a remap first?

    Hi mate, the T/C coming up or on during driving is totally normal, as long as its occasional. Mine comes on everytime I turn into my drive and go over the curb at full lock, and if I floor it on uneven tarmac or bumps etc. Long as it goes off you're fine. Get the intercooler done first and you...

    Series 3 Colour choice??

    Looking good! Looks like you've already pulled it back nicely in one of those, if the paint/primer sticks well, and its smooth, it doesn't matter, long as whatevers underneath stays put, Sounds like a green of some form is for you, might've already mentioned that Ken does original paints, if...
