    Can my 300 Tdi disco run on cooking oil.

    I know i'm sounding like a soft **** here but all you gotta do is just mix? Aint gotta add nothing??? I know what your thinking but dont wanna shag it up. So if i'm doubtful could I start off with a lesser ratio??

    300TDI or TD5 which is best.

    Ive got a 97 300 auto myself. Talking to other disco users both 300 and TD5 I believe that if you get a bad TD5 then things just go from bad to worse and problems never stop, parts are expensive and they arnt so easy to work on yourself but, if you get a good one then, like Martin said above...

    Cornwall to Oxfordshire

    Why Cornwall is my home County there's only so much working with the Navy one can take, RUM, BUM and BACKY just wears thin to a Crab after nearky 5 years. Plus in Oxfordshire there's actually stuff to do when it rains. The kids can only take so much green laning on a wet Cornish weekend!!!

    300tdi breaks

    Ive fitted springs on the pins in between the inner and outter pads. Dont believe pads are handed. But if disco calipers are known to wear sound like I'll have to splash some cash.

    300tdi breaks

    I run a 300 tdi and have just done a front pad change. Since changing them they've started to rattle around in the caliper making a hell of a metalic clunk every time you hit a bump or brake. Has anyone heard of this happening before? Can calipers wear that much?? I've checked the pads and...

    Buying a Disco

    Mate you buy yourself a Disco if thats what you want. Mind you they are all right about the 4ltr thing. A nice 'comfortable' 300tdi is the way forward, as long as it's not rotten of course.
