    Just had to be recovered :(

    If your lucky the shaft with the splines on is still ok, and that the splines in the drive flange are buggered, if so, clean it all up and buy a new drive flange, it would be worth looking at all the other flanges, at least the other one on the same axle as theory says it will be pretty equally...

    Disco 1 300 tdi sports exhaust.

    £80 upwards doesn't sound like a lot for a full exhaust.... Was the last time you bought one 1994?

    Just had to be recovered :(

    Do you mean oil coming from the engine somehwere? Do you have any tools? If you have little rubber caps in the centre of wheels, prise them off (only pushed onto a lip), and look to see if the splines look ok, if 1 has gone it will all look a bit chewed up, then if you have a socket undo the 5...

    300tdi lightweight

    Wil are you thinking about the 200tdi's? The turbo set up is certainly different between defender and disco with the 200's. But as said above, 300's are the same on both models

    Free to a good home D1 autobox

    Got a autobox from a 300tdi D1, needs to be taken away, was working when car stopped being used about 3 years ago, we did have to 'adjust' the shape of the gear linkage to get it out of the car, but nothing that can't be swapped over from your old gearbox Collection only from South wiltshire...

    crankshaft broke discovery 3

    Broken cranks in engines (not specifying this engun but a lot of engun) often result in spun bearings and stuffed bearing bores, so don't bank on being able to take it apart and put a new crank and bearings in

    300TDI Temp gauge fitment

    Ok solved that problem, new question, just out of interest really, what is the thing in the top of the head that i thought was the temp sender for the gauge? The engine had EGR, could it be an input for that?

    300TDI Temp gauge fitment

    So old and new, I now understand the disco 300 senders should be like I've got, was wondering if any other lr engines used the same sender fitment and would work my gauge sensibly Thanks all again Winchman I do like the look of them watchdog things, much prefer to have a number rather than a...

    300TDI Temp gauge fitment

    Hi Andy, so you couldn't find a sendor to suit either, does your sender have the course thread, or the tapered thread? Julian - I would have said it was about 5/8 size without going and measuring it, and about 18 tpi too I'll put up a couple of pictures tomorrow Cheers everyone

    300TDI Temp gauge fitment

    Old engine's already gone, it was the '2.5NA free to a good home' If theres no solution from land rover bits I'll just get a good quality universal gauge and sender and make it fit in the head, but I would have thought something would be compatible

    300TDI Temp gauge fitment

    In the process of putting a '98 disco 300 in me '87 90, ordered a few conversion bits from Steve Parker - would recommend highly, good website, delivered quickly and fantastic quality -, got a temp sender as I knew that the disco sender will make my gauge read incorrectly, but what has been...
