    Which flasher relay??

    Hi. I've removed the rear bumper from my 300tdi discovery and am doing away with the lights and indicators from the bumper. Is there a relay I can replace the standard one with so the indicators flash at a normal rate? I bought a 200tdi relay but this has 5 pins whereas the one I removed has...

    300TDI Valve Stem Seals without removing head??

    How do I check if cylinders are at TDC. I know that cyl 1 has marks on the casting but what about the other 3?

    300TDI Valve Stem Seals without removing head??

    300TDI Compression Test Results - Worn Piston Rings???

    It has no problem starting and seems to have plenty of power. I ran the engine with the hose off the turbo and no sign of any oil. Bit of a mystery. All I can think is piston rings at the mo but not really a winter job!!

    300TDI Compression Test Results - Worn Piston Rings???

    I've had a quick look at the turbo. I removed the pipes and ran the engine. No oil came out and seemed to be blowing well. I'll check for play in the impeller.

    300TDI Compression Test Results - Worn Piston Rings???

    Morning.. On Sunday I covered about 160/180 miles in my Discovery 1 on and off road. Before setting off I topped up the engine oil level to Max and was surprised to see it was frighteningly low. During the day one of the lads in a following vehicle commented that my disco was blue...

    300tdi engine, gearbox and transfer box for sale. East Yorks.

    Yes it's an R380. The box is still in the vehicle at the mo. it's out of a 1997 disco with 141k on the clock. Drove really nicely without the common crunching into 2nd gear.

    Disco 1 wheels and tyres.

    As title. Condition not important as its not going back on the road. Just need a set so I can still move the chassis about once I start stripping it. The more local to me the better. Thanks.
