A bit off topic How much work was it to retro fit? How much did it all cost?

Not for £2k it's not!! I thought it would be £2-300.

I fancy fitting air con to my 300tdi. Does anyone know if there are kits available or is it a case of finding a breaker and getting everything from that?

I had Disco headlights! It will be the plugs on the back of your bulbs, in the end I cut mine off and crimped in some spade connectors, never been a problem since.

I'll get the beast on the road (got a steering and front axle issue at the moment). Then I'll give you a shout. Like I say it will probably be in about a months time.

Best make some friends before I get started then. Be about a month or so before I'm ready for my first expedition.

The thing is I don't like people so would probably be on my own. Set of tyres, winch and ground anchors for me then.

Some diff guards and new tyres it is then (with a tow strop in the boot just incase). Will decide if I need a lift kit once I get started. Cheers for all the suggestions.

I've got my 200tdi that I'm using for the commute (now I've acquired some reasonably priced fuel) but I want to take it for a bit of green laning on the weekends cos the wife won't let me mod the Chelsea tractor 300tdi. What is the minimum I need to get myself off road. I call it green laning...

I run about 28psi on the front anymore is chaos. Drop tyre pressures first it's free to try.

Just had an email from EA, it pretty much confirms what has already been said. Thank you for your recent enquiry regarding collecting waste vegetable oil to produce bio diesel/ If you intend to make bio diesel for your own personal use you don't need an exemption or an environmental permit for...

Tire pressures too high. I get it on my Disco when they are too hard.

Will do. Cheers.

My local landlord has just started selling food, I can get all his WVO if I can give him something to prove that he is disposing of it legally. Is there anywhere I can get an official certificate or will a hand written receipt do?

Take the lights out of the bumper you will see some bolts heads (2 each side I seem to remember) undo them then your bumper will drop off.

You won't loose too much water. It is as straight forward as you think just make sure you top up through the thermostat housing to avoid airlocks.

How often should this be done? Is it a service item?

Thanks James you're a legend.

Nice one thanks. Is the lt77 a 3/8 square drive? With the same thread. If it is that's what I'll get.

Does anyone know where I can get a filler plug for my 300tdi gearbox. Mine looks a bit foooked so I don't want to wrestle it out without a replacement to hand.
