Do you know if/when it last had a timing belt, that's in the same area and could be making a noise if one of the idlers has gone causing the belt to be slack

I've done a few, easiest way I've found is take bonnet off, remove scuttle and your straight at it, I've never had to remove the a pillar finishers doing it that way which makes it easier especially as most I've done have had snorkels fitted

If it's a 200 my old one only used to blow cold through the face vents, apparently because that's where the aircon works, even tho most have no aircon

Check your propshaft ujs sounds like a uj locking up to me

I had a similar problem but as popping the fuse, the wire closest to the hinges was trapped between the door and top hinge where it had previously had replacements

Sorry to contradict you biggeeeee but the OP was referring to heated window not side window lift Sam

Hi, as far as I'm aware there is no seperate relay for the heated rear window, the way I read it the rear window realay is an integral part of the fuse box and cannot be changed, I may be wrong tho, I'm sure sierrafery or James Martin will be along soon to correct if I'm wrong Sam

Hi, is a v8 chassis the same as a td5? As I have the chance of a mint v8 chassis and my cars a td5 Thanks Sam

That is exactly what had happened to the rear window, many thanks for the suggestion, Wooo a free fix for a change Thanks for all the help Sam

Hi all Thanks for all the advice I've tried unplugging the screen does exactly the same so will have to look deeper, That's a really good suggestion on the door hinges as I have paperwork saying it had hinges 2 years ago so may well be that I'll take a look and report back

Hi After a little bit of advice, the heated rear scree and heated mirrors don't work on my disco, the light illuminates on the switch but keeps blowing fuses. So far I have put a new fuse in which popped pretty much instantly, tried this again with both front doors unplugged from main...

Just tried to view your video but YouTube says the video is private and closes it?

Does it have a Sony sterio? If so it would be the reminder to remove the face plate, just a thought

The experience I had was water running down where the clutch pedal is on the drivers side, if you remove the wipers and the scuttle panel you can see the wiper mechanism it's secured I with a number of 10mm head bolts, the one I replaced was all bubbled up with corrosion both sides and you could...

Had this exact issue, was a rotten wiper linkage letting water through, worth a look takes about 20 mins to get out and check

I'll have a look at work tomorow see if it's still there if so your welcome to it, just a thought, the p38 uses the same switch with a different plug, has anyone tried swapping the plug to a disco type? As they're around £40 SH

I'll have a look see if I've still got my old one, we have wen them apart and cleaned the contacts etc at work before but they do t last long before they're gone again in my experience, mine worked with no m and s lights but wouldn't reverse Sam

Hi, was it a bare block or a short motor? If it was a bare block you may have left a thrust bearing out off the crankshaft as that would allow the flywheel to move fore and aft Sam

Hi, yes they are took one off a v8 for my Td5 and all working fine since Sam

Hi all, just to let everyone know the problem turned out to be the plastic dowels had disintegrated and the head had moved, so new head gasket with metal dowels etc and all running fine, if anything a bit more spritely than before, thank you for everyone's advice hop it helps someone else in the...
