    Plastic trim on side of windscreen

    Think I'll give this a go first, if needs be might run some black sealant down the sides just to tidy it up, £60 for a bit of rubber sounds a bit steep

    Plastic trim on side of windscreen

    Thanks for that perfect, one question though, does it mean I will need to replace the whole "A" frame trim, all I wanted to do was replace a rubber seal that runs between the trim and the windscreen, ( it came adrift )

    Plastic trim on side of windscreen

    Think this may be a simple and silly question, on the sides of my windscreen on my TD5 there's a plastic trim, they look like they are held in by plastic rivets, on the inside frame, what is the best way to remove a: the rivets b: will this make it possible to remove the trim Also I'm guessing...

    Roof advice

    Get them fixed, had mine done, £350, with a two year warranty, came to my home all done in a day, with new seals drains cleared and resealed and the right adhesive to stick down the frame, both sunroofs, to be honest, when I saw all the work he did to get to them, I would have taken three times...

    Disco 2 New to air suspension.....

    Mine has always "bonged" on start up, normally 3 times, no problem! Not sure that it has anything to do with the compressor?, could be wrong though

    Help!

    I did mine a few weeks ago, both sides, took some advice from here and a garage that specialises in Land Rovers, got to say it was pretty easy, took me about an hour, but make sure you buy new clips for the top of the air bags, mine were so rusty they fell apart!

    Disco 2 New to air suspension.....

    Mine does the same it is a d2 face lift, but I must say, I do wait for all the lights and sounds to go out before I start her( I'm a bus driver, and it's something an old engineer told me, let's the all the checks take place before starting). Must say though I've never herd the compressor...

    Rotary oil filter

    Yes I have looked at genuine Land Rover filters, and they are a fortune, and I was looking at Mann, that's why I asked, does make you wonder though what Land Rover put in their filters to warrant the price difference! Think I'll go with Mann or Coopers, thanks for the info

    Rotary oil filter

    just about to do the oil change, and was just thinking that I'm sure I read on here that there was a particular make of rotary filter to stay away from, was I dreaming, I was going to order a Mann filter. I know sounds like a stupid question!

    fully or semi Synthetic

    Thought it was a controversial subject :rolleyes:,next question, could you mix fully synthetic oil with semi synthetic, only ask as I have some fully synthetic left from the last oil change? Think I know what the answer will be:D

    Windscreen leak 2003td5

    I will check those, but when I called the guy back yesterday,he took off the interior trim by the "A" pilars on both sides and has checked behind the roof lining, it was all dry apart from the top corners of the windscreen, we've left the trim off so when it does rain it will hopefully prove the...
