    Do I have a 200TDi fitted to 300TDi?

    There is, or rather was, an EGR. The dipstick is on the passanger side.

    Do I have a 200TDi fitted to 300TDi?

    My water pump looks to be situated in the middle, and the top and bottom hoses are at opposite ends of the rad.

    Do I have a 200TDi fitted to 300TDi?

    That looks nothing like my thermostat housing.

    Do I have a 200TDi fitted to 300TDi?

    I fitted a new thermostat yesterday, but the gasket that I had got for it was miles out. A quick call to the local LR main dealer this morning to let them know has resulted in a bit of head scratching. (I wasn't after a refund on a 55p part, just letting them know) It seems that the same...

    An idiot asks.......

    Sorted. Filled via the expansion tank. it took about 7.5 litres, then I added another litre in the top of the rad. Bleed via the crappy black plastic bolt next to the thermostat. I took it out for a long run. It got up to temp quite quickly, but it took ages for any warm air to come out of...

    Feck it. I reckon mixing at such low percentages will be ok. (fingers crossed)

    An idiot asks.......

    So in all the years that you have been driving, you've never had to top your coolent up once? Not even a drop?
  9. Disco Moneypit

    An idiot asks.......

    Nice one. Cheers. But why is it not wide to mix coolents? What is, (or was untill last night), in mine was originally put in about 6 months ago, and is the green coloured stuff. What I have now is pink. According to the Haynes book of lies, the Disco takes 11.7 litres of coolent. Surely...

    An idiot asks.......

    So out of the 50 people that have viewed this, not one of you knows the answer or has drained and topped up your coolent before, ever?

    An idiot asks.......

    Just a quick but stupid question from man idiot with little or no mechanical expertese. I have removed my rad and intercooler to clean them both of all the mud that was in them. To drain I removed the bottom hose. However, there is still some coolent left in the expansion tank. To re-fill...

    What is HGF

    'What is HGF?' Expensive is usually the answer. When it comes to V8's, especially the 4.3's, 4.5's and 5.0's, HGF is uaually mistaken for a slipped bore liner. This is even more painfull on the piggybank.

    Any chance of a pic of the pins in place Red? Thinking of doing this to mine as I am sick of replacing the bonnet cable every few months.

    How Much??

    I bought mine for £2840 2 1/2 years ago and have spent at least that much on it since. That makes me feel quite sick :(

    I think i broke my disco!

    Change both props ASAP. My front one broke at only 20mph and dam near came straight through the newly welded in 3mm floorpan. Honestly mate, a flailing prop will cut through a floorpan like a hot knife through butter. You will feel for all of about 10 seconds tops like all your wheels are...

    Who knows about whistles.

    Mine only started to whistle after I replaced the inlet / exhaust manifold gasket. I put it down to the fact that I shagged the threads on one, maybe two of the holes, therefore it isn't sealing properly. The whistling starts at about 2000rpm. It's kinda a whoooaa, whooOOAAAA, whoOOAAAA...

    300tdi - few problems

    Just a quick point concerning the indicators...... The bulb holders on boths sides of the front of my Disco were worn. This would mean that the bulbs would come loose. My first idea was to pack them out with silver foil. Bad idea! All this did was blow fuses. I then replaced both the bulb...
