    Disco 3 (LR3) TDV6, 2008, Brake pad wear sensor connector location

    hi again folks....quick question: I need to replace the front & rear brake pad wear sensors on my Disco 3 and before I crawl underneath, can anyone tell me if the connectors for the sensor cables are underneath the car or inside the cabin ? The workshop manuals I have make no reference to the...

    Thanks for the link Bud-very informative :D When you mention that you had located them at around £8 each, were they identical to the JLR ones and can you remember the part details and supplier ? Many thanks John

    Disco 3 (LR3) 2.7,TDV6 Engine top plastic cover

    Tried a couple of breakers but they are only interested in selling the complete cover-if they have one :( The cover on mine is otherwise in very good condition and the foam soundproofing is undamaged, which is unusual !! If anyone can locate one from a local scrappy, I would be more than happy...

    Disco 3 (LR3) 2.7,TDV6 Engine top plastic cover

    Hi Guys...Did an oil & filter change on my 2008 Disco yesterday and noticed when I removed the top cover that one of the rubber "Bungs" that hold the cover in place over the 4 plastic, ball ended studs is missing. Had a look on Microcat and the studs are shown but not the "Bungs". Phoned the...

    Yet another update.....This is getting like a Corrie storyline...goes on and on and on....... Spent over 4 hours in Conwy Land Rover (Should have been a "While you wait" job). The (Dodgy ?) module was fitted and the car hooked up to their SDD diagnostics which was calling for the barcode to be...

    Disco 3 (LR3) Memory seat control module location

    Due to all the faffing about regarding return of the unit to the supplier, which they are happy to accept, they suggested that I take it to my local LR Stealer-Conwy Landrover for them to handle, which I did on Friday. The parts guy told me that as they hadn't fitted the part, despite having...

    This was posted on the Disco 3 forum in response to my post "I'd be interested to know.... before he changes modules, to look at his car CCF and see if steering is fitted. Worth a quick check as logic isn't always the right way round. Think I would have reset your car? battery disconnection...

    UPDATE Met up with johnlad the weekend after taking up his kind offer :D Most helpful Guy and a credit to the forum. He plugged the IID in and went through the configurations and settings with a fine tooth comb. The electric steering column functions were shown as "Not fitted"-this was changed...

    Disco 3 (LR3) Memory seat control module location

    UPDATE Have today spoken to a LR specialist in Birmingham who I used to carry out Becm programming for and they advise that the column adjustment/memory function needs to be re-initialised with suitable diagnostics and the lynx does not have the capability. If I cannot find anyone within...

    Disco 3 (LR3) Memory seat control module location

    Have posted over there. I have a request...Is there anyone in the N.Wales/Cheshire area with access to either IID or possibly Faultmate (Not VIN locked) who can give the system the once over. Obviously I can come to you and Beer Tokens are the order of the day ;);)

    UPDATE... The replacement (Under LR warranty) new module arrived last week and I decided to fit it this afternoon before the forecast bad weather arrives. Disappointed to find that I have the same problem as the one I returned-seat & mirror memories work (Can store them) but the adjustable...

    Disco 3 (LR3) Ambient lighting function-Interior lamps

    Thanks Guys Yes it is there, looks about as much use as an ashtray on a motor bike :D Tried it with the headlamps & sidelamps on but it's not working. Checked for voltage and it's getting to the LED so I assume it has died. Will try and find a replacement LED from RS Components or Farnell. No...

    Disco 3 (LR3) Ambient lighting function-Interior lamps

    Hi Yorkie...have just this minute read your post. I do not recollect seeing the small hole you refer to but when it stops raining I will go and have a look. Strange that they have referred to it in the handbook and with the car being the HSE spec. I would have expected it to be fitted. Can any...

    Page 92 of the Drivers Handbook reads as follows.... "Low-level night-time illumination. When the main lighting switch turned to side lamps or headlamps, LED's in the front interior lamps provides very low level illumination. The level of illumination can be adjusted using the instrument pack...

    Disco 3 (LR3) Ambient lighting function-Interior lamps

    Hi Guys...I see from the handbook that the interior lamp(s) have a low level ambient lighting function which is controlled by the panel illumination rheostat. I have tried to activate them without success-the mention in the handbook is very vague. The car is a TDV6, HSE, 2008 model. Have any of...
