    Another Pipe part number request

    If you really require the part number PM me with your VIN number. I'll look it up on Microcat. - I'm retired so need something to keep me occupied, when I'm not fixing my own Disco. They truly are a labour of love.

    Leaking back door

    I've got an 52 plate disco 11 TD5 The back door leaks & I don't want to have to replace the boot floor. Does anyone know how to fix this. Tried the search feature & nothing seems to match my problem. It's a bitch trying to back-out of Tesco's when it's steamed up.

    Ignition Barrel

    I've just had a similar problem, the wife broke the key off in the barrel. Got an automotive locksmith to get the bit out (£55.00). Had to send the steering lock to him as no-one up here in the Highlands can do it. So now I'm stuck with just one key, but I discovered on eBay this LANDROVER...

    Key broken off in ignition switch

    Update I've taken discool's advice & Googled for an Automotive Locksmith. Found one in Stirling, 85 miles away. Spoke to him & he said no problem, so I'm posting the whole steering lock. Cost is £45.00 + VAT + postage - a darn sight cheaper than the other option of replacing all the locks @ £500.00+

    Wierd battery discharge

    Thanks for the reply Dave, however the problem has gone away for the moment. It's like a relay was stuck or something, neither myself or the auto-elec guy can work it out.

    viscous fan

    Get rid of that viscous fan, it sucks fuel! I've had a 200tdi (oil leaks, tell me about them) & now have a 52 Disco II. I fitted both with electric fans & have saved 10% in fuel consumption. I was prompted by my firm, which ran a Defender towing an Ifor Williams with 10 barrels of fuel + 4 onthe...
