    Change The Head Gasket, My Son!

    Fair enough, but I suppose it's all relative to how much money some folk have to waste. ;)

    3rd row td5 seats

    If I'm not mistaken one of those [seats] would be unsuitable for a discovery with rear AC. Someone corerct me if I'm wrong. Will

    Change The Head Gasket, My Son!

    When I bought mine last week the mechanic told me the two things that always need attention to are the head gasket and [something to do with] a wiring loom. He's servicing the trooook on Saturday and will do this wiring loom thing at the same time. As has been said above, I wouldn't do the...

    Small amount of water in the passenger side footwell [TD5 '52 plate ES]

    Oops. :o Completely forget I nipped over to Sainsbury's in the truck yesterday, in p*issing down rain, and gave a pal a lift. Guess it will undoubtedly be wet feet. :o However, I've done the search as advised and will monitor the footwell daily. Many thanks. W.

    Small amount of water in the passenger side footwell [TD5 '52 plate ES]

    I went out to the truck last night and noticed a small amount of water on the rubber mat in the front passenger footwell. Not a massive amount but certainly more than a couple of drops. I had a good feel around under the glovebox and there was no sign of damp whatsoever. No-one had been...

    What do you use to prevent leather damage from child car seats?

    The seats I have were nearly £400/pair, I ain't replacing the seats! To give you an idea of the concern, I used them for the first time for a fourty minute round trip [40mins in the seats and two hours between each journey without sitting in them] and, having taken the seats out when we got...

    What do you use to prevent leather damage from child car seats?

    Good point and good idea. Your post has made me realise one thing; no matter what I use it will still leave indents. I suppose the question is just how far to go to minimise the risk. Your idea will be cheaper but I'd worry that such a flat surface would make the seats liable to movement...

    For anyone with the remotest interest in the original thread, I've decided to give a couple of these a try. May be useful to someone else in the future. Will

    Drivers heated seat not working, passenger seat fine

    Sounds familiar :D Mine's an ES and the heating doesnt work on the drivers side. Lights come on on both switches but only the passenger side works. I'll happily take your working seat for my non-working seat. At least then we'll both have seats that act the same as each other! ;)

    Drivers heated seat not working, passenger seat fine

    My drivers heated seat is not working. The passenger seat heats up fine so, as it appears to be a single fuse, I'm pretty sure it's not the fuse. The light comes on on the heated seat button. Could anyone advise what I could check for? Thanks, Will
