Good luck, hope it's not too expensive. Thanks for the update, keep us posted.

Hi all, Anybody got any advice on the newer disco 3 4.4 v8 engines. Good or bad welcome. Obviously there aren't a lot of these around & info is limited. I can't even buy a Haynes Manuel as they don't do one for this engine.:o

Welcome to the dark side. Life will never be the same. And neither will your wallet. :D

Bastards.....if you do a search in the stolen part of the main page you will find this is not uncommon. I have heard you can use some sort of steel straps. These headlights normaly end up on eBay so you'd be better off etching your number plate on the front of the lamps. This puts (SOME) people...

Laughing me bollox off. You could try dreaming of grease nipples, at least your half way there.

Mine was 5 years old when bought & owned for 6. It was a facelift 2002 (52) Oh and by the way mine had the plastic dowels in the head. I was confused as to why this was, & was told by the garage you get whatever engine is on the shelf at land rover at the time. The changing of the dowels...

Check wheel bearings & rear propshaft center bearing both for signs of play. That's a start & let us know how you get on.

Popcorn?

Yes it's chain. Only aux belt to be changed @ 105,000

Fair comment, but I did drive my td5 down there with a ####ed gearbox. That was serious!!! Oh and he was easy on the pen too. GOOD LUCK!!!

I agree with mike, done mine this week. Sorted now.

Thanks......appreciated muchly.

I use a guy down Carmarthen (blaenwaun) Lyndon George Tel:01994-448676 He's not heavy on the pen, I use him if there is something I can't fix my self. He's red hot on landys, there's nothing he don't know about them. On saying that if you know of one in Bridgend I would love to hear of...

Shall I take that as a "#### knows". Lol

Hi folks. Just wondering has anybody ever changed a rear prop shaft on a 3? & is it a straight forward job, such as undo bolts & straight swap! Thanks in advance.

Yip like other folk said it doesn't matter how much you spend, as long as your happy & keeping it, then it's ok. But you will never recoup what you spend. (Unfortunately)

Well I heard these horror story's before I bought my disco 2 td5. "To hell with it", I thought & bought one. Owned for six years. cost me a fortune to maintain in that time. But may I say I absolutely loved it to bits. I now have a disco 3 and also heard the horror story's before buying, "to...

Your a bit tight pikey. You could have stretched to a box of popcorn.

Thanks
