    D2 ACE & steering fluid problem

    Hi, the tank doesn't come apart but yes you can clean the it. I used jizer degreaser then rinsed it with cold water, then put it in a bucket of hot soapy water & 'shook it all about' 🙂. Final rinse with cold water again & dried it completely.

    Freelander 1 Rear prop uj's

    Hi, once the circlips are removed do they just tap out? The uj, diff end is fine as is the one on the front prop. it's one axis on the rear prop, VCU end, that moves a bit then stops. All the uj's are smooth, even the bit of movement I get on the 'problem' one, so that sounds like a plan, many...

    Freelander 1 Rear prop uj's

    Hi, I might just do that as I've just had a quote from a prop recon place for £200 😮. One joint has all the movement it should (I thought I'd do both as a precaution). Prop place says it's not necessary to re-balance just for uj change. I'll try the lube route. 🙂

    Freelander 1 Rear prop uj's

    Hi all, I've gone to refit the propshaft (after g/box repair) & as it was off the road for so long the uj's on the rear prop are stiff & one locks after a small amount of movement so has anyone replaced the uj's without any vibration problems afterwards or shall I try & find a s/h one ? Any...

    Disco 2 Discovery 2 Wiper Blades

    Yep, I use the Bosch blades fr & rr on my D2. My FL1 had the flat blades, also use them on my Mazda 2 & SHMBO's Mitsubishi Lancer never had any issues with dragging/skipping etc. The only thing I had on my D2 was the pattern arm (rear) on it which caused only half the screen to be wiped, now got...

    Disco 2 ACE Filter Replacement

    (Which brand/style?) I got a Flatdog one, very well made & I love the slots/tracks in the slats which you can put anchor rings anywhere (see pic) & they fitted it all for free along with the awning I supplied & only took 30 minutes, very pleased.

    Coffre freelander

    Hi, with the tailgate open the window switch will not operate the window so that's ok (how it should be). With the tail gate open if you operate the tailgate release you should still hear the mechanism working so given you've had a replacement mechanism already & as long as you know it was in...

    Coffre freelander

    Bonjour, (that's my limit🤣🤣). If the window is down & everything else is OK the tailgate should still open. Have you tried disconnecting the battery for a minute then reconnecting it ? Once reconnected use the tailgate switch in the centre consol to (raise) recalibrate the window, you hear beeps...

    I've just had a quick look under the seats of mine (it has cd changer & amp under there) but can't see anything like that. I don't recall seeing anything like that either when I last had the centre consol out,sorry.

    2002 Discovery CDL conversion wiring

    Brilliant, out of interest what serial no does your transfer start with ? Mine is 41D (see pic). I've never managed to see (properly) if it has the threaded stud poking out the top of the plate with the 3 bolts in it. I do have the 2 wires hanging about under there ! Cheers.
