Really? So pedal can be slowly pushed to the floor even when it is properly bled? Maybe I have to test it then on my yard and try the braking. It's now in my garage front on jack stands.

Yes, thanks for the good lucks! Bleeding seems to be a bigger task than I thought. Done both bleeding with Foxwell and manually and have air in the system.

Got this TRW part yesterday from Autodoc and installed today. Tomorrow bleeding when I get my mate to help with the pedal.

Will change the brake master cylinder soon and wondering what is best option for the replacement. I have year 2000 Discovery, LHD. Lucas? Britpart? Any recommendations?

Engine oil and filter changed, also new cabin filter. Since I bought this FL1 TD4 little under 2 years ago, it has been driven 8000 kms and done 4 oil+filter changes.

Went to see vet today with our hovawart male. Hippo is just perfect for large dogs without rear seats.

New front brake calipers and hoses for my 2000 D2.

My FL1 has also TD4 and it also turns new engine oil black very soon after the last oil change. My D2 TD5 doesn't.

i thought so too But good job anyways.

I think that is the best thing a car can get. What I don't get is why would you change the filter in steps 4 and then again in step 6?

Already did one using generic rough mat material, cut it to shape of the boot but wasn't satisfied with the material itself. I'd want to save the rear footwells as they are, because they hold bags and stuff in place when driving but want to cover the oem boot carpet with something that doesn't...

So this is what I'm looking for. Unfortunately no international shipping.

Do you know a source (with international shipping) for a boot mat that covers the whole floor to the rear footwell? I have removed the rear seat and using FL1 as a van, so those widely available boot mats are too short.

Cleaned the gunk off the AC control knobs. Acetone in rag first and then Autoglym vinyl & rubber care. Looks much better.

Did a 1100 kilometers tour with my 2000 D2. It was a bird hunting trip with my pointer. Diesel consumption was 9,5l/100km, lot's of 100 km/h driving. It's TD5 manual, mild lift and 235/85R16 AT tyres.

Nice cool Saturday morning here, it's bath time for Hippo.

Checked the IRD oil level. Last time was a year ago. This LR must a special edition because it doesnt leak anything. It's also a pleasure to do maintenance when it is not done by professionals but by myself. For example the IRD level plug is not overtightened and rounded.

I think it did work. Even if I have to do this twice a year. New facelift headlight units are several hundred euros per side so 18€ per year to keep those originals clear is really cheap.

The kit had somekind of ceramic UV coating that was applied after polishing. But cheap fix, probably won't last forever.

Did a headlight restoration using Turtle Wax kit for my 2004 TD4. Both headlights had a lot of this cloudiness. Didn't wait that much for a 18€ kit but have to say headlights are really clear and bright now. Let's see how long this lasts.
