quite normal

Molyslip in this morning, clutch reblead try it later

Thanks for the info thebiglad

That’s got to be the best answer I’ve had on here so far, straight and to the point thank you.

thanks for your reply I appreciate it, oil is the correct mtf94, the tight shift only comes into play once the gearbox has warmed up, I wouldn’t have thought the stick would be at fault, but worth a look stranger things have happened

Thanks for that interesting read , unfortunately no conclusion

Disco 1 200tdt I’m having trouble with the gear change, when I start first thing in the morning oil cool in the box gear change is normal, give it about 10 miles oil warms up gear change begins to get more and more difficult to select, I have changed the oil for the correct grade recommended by...

I may be wrong but sounds to like the threads have gone, only way I can think of to get it out now is to drill it out, going to get messy but drill through but leave drill in the hole and take power unit off the drill, at least that way it won’t gush out until you remove the drill, once...

Weak valve spring or broken or could be a floor in the valve, unsual

Difficult to say yes it’s that on something like this but I’m leaning towards clutch at the moment, if you pump the clutch pedal fast then try to select a gear does it go in ok.

Na take the engine out you get a far clearer view of what’s going on, and you can get at everything, aliening the clutch is easier , setting the fork and thrust bearing , whole job done in 6 hours

I never fit secondhand springs all vehicles ride differently

Simple way to set your tracking is with length of string spot on every time.

I did mine a few weeks ago, I found the easiest way to do this job is to remove the engine, once out you will see the clutch fork it wears through where it pivots, so that will need replacing I would advise replacing the slave cylinder too because it’s moved past it’s normal travel...

You say whilst running on petrol, is this duel fuel vehicle, this certainly sounds like MAF

Get a socket and half extension on the centre nut on the crank fly wheel, this will allow you to turn the engine, take no1 plug out, use a long screw driver down the plug hole and feel where the piston is, with screw driver on the piston gently turn the crank until the piston reaches the top of...

Pretty much every part I’ve used made by Brit-Part has failed due to poor construction; they use a name that falsely suckers you into believing it is a reliable part, as said master cylinders poor construction, distributors poor construction and cheap components, I could go on but have better...

Mine needed a new clutch, trawled the internet found what I thought was a bargain, Brit-Part complete clutch, Big mistake. Brit-Part clutch is a cheap badly made copy an absolute disgrace, I have fitted many clutches over the years to Range rovers and Discovery’s and I have to say DO NOT...

Took tunnel apart and took facia off turns out it’s the switch as I thought dodgy , do you think they could have made the fixing screws more difficult to get out, I will replace with bolts.

I have had this problem for over a year now, matrix feed pipe got broken when I had the engine about month ago, so pulled dash out and replaced the matrix but never entered my head about the switch problem until now. so I'm pretty sure all connecters are home properly, but will check what you...
