Have a look at the wire, while you change it and make sure it's still insulated near the plug - the insulation can go brittle and if it touches a grounded item it could trigger the light too.

Yeah, not a daily, but usually used every friday. 1997 V8 auto, Jap spec, in NZ. Did a bit of rescuing at the Mountain Bike park today. Local Boys High School had a teacher only day, so half the school was over there... massive off for one of them, so the Disco was ferrying kids back to my...

Take all out. LABEL the wires! I'd remove the fuel pump or injector fuse/s too, so it isn't pumping in fuel.

How have you determined you have no rear drive??? Without a difflock, that would normally mean NO drive... the output to the rear would just spin and the centre diff wouldn't transfer power to the front anyway.

If you can't sort out the basics of a Disco 1, I'm not sure you want to delve into the "fun" of a series...

In E39 BMWs, the tamper light shows up if the VIN in the LCM doesn't match the cluster. The Milage updates in the whole car, to whichever one is highest, every 100kms... but in the system, that could be in 1 km, or in 99 kms... I don't know about the Landy stuff, but I used "BMW Scanner 1.4"...

I've thought about earlier VW motors.... But I also have a mate who will GIVE me his 1998 530d Touring with BMWs M57 engine... But even the parts for the conversion cost so much that I'll probably not recoup the costs over the "economy" of the V8... because I just don't do enough milage.

so 90% is Britpart??? It's probably as useful and my Lego Defender?🤣

Mine has a "power adjustment" screw on the bottom... I often need to wind it down for the unit to work - if it has too much air, it doesn't oscilate and just squirts air out... But Mine is ancient, and hardly used.

You might be surprised at what's hiding behind that sealer, even on yours. My Disco spent 6 years is Japan, then 20 here... it wasn't nice - the sealer causes the corrosion on these joins, not the salt. We probably get quite a lot more rain here in Northern NZ than you though ;-)

Water has enough surface tension to bridge a 5mm hole, so bigger holes are always better.

OOps... 🤣 You mean the stuff that used to be dribbling from this hole??? I used the same seam sealer I did for the other parts, and tidied up inside the trough too. Redid all these joins as the original sealer actually caused rust! Which was somewhat common in the 90's. Then I put a bead on...

Their sealer is crap. You need to scrape it all off, and replace with a decent seam sealer, or even a urethane (NEVER use silicone on a car!). You'll also find, right up the top, under the end of the scuttle cover, where all the panels are sandwiched together, the sealer will have split too...

It's a big, heavy, hungry, 6 cylinder. Might be better to fit a big, hungry, Rover V8, which will use about the same amount of fuel, but be a lot lighter and a ****load cheaper to buy and install - Or just buy one pre-fitted and save all the hassle.

OK... I'm 3 rums in, hopefully I don't sound like too much of a cock, BUT... Just start at the beginning of this thread and actually check the bare basics as suggested. So far, there's been a whole of of time wasting and money spent with incompetent "mechanics" and the bare minimum checks...

On my 97 V8, it's on the throttle body.

I wonder if you have a flipped seal in the master? Can you use a pressure bleeder on it's reservoir type? I brought a really cheap weed sprayer (like 6 pounds) and used an old master cylinder lid (on my Disco 1) with a good seal and fitted the hose to it, with a tube nut on the inside, that...

Bulk Rename Utility. You can select the files and alter the names in all sorts of ways. You can append, remove last n, insert at a position, all sorts. It's free too. You could also divide the photos into folders and rename those in each folder, then move the back into one gib folder for...

40 should be plenty, as long as it's not all ****ing out the sides of knackered bearings 🤔 You need enough flow into the bearings to replace what comes out. They don't need pressure in them.

And there is a void in the top "corner" that looks like it was introduced during casting. That greeny goo was probably factory, or workshop applied. Stick with their first story, and tell them it needed replacing! If you'd shelled out nearly 11K, would they have backtracked and returned your...
