    Well, I went and did it!

    Where can you get the oil and filter for £10 & £5 respectively? :confused: I'm also looking for transmission oil for my auto box, so your 'outlet' might save me a lot of money! :)

    300Tdi Exhaust

    Sorry that I can't help, but could you tell me how much the non-cat down pipe costs? Mine has a repair, and I guess it will need replacing sometime soon. Is it an easy job, or does it need special tools and is time consuming?

    Well, I went and did it!

    I haven't had time to check yet, but if the exterior condition is anything to go by, I've got no worries! :)

    Just read the manual.....

    Well, just read the manual, and was wondering how often the sediment bowl should be cleaned out? Also, is it easy to get to/clean out? I will fork out for a Haynes manual soon, when time permits!

    Radio LCD screen intermittent

    Hi all, the LCD screen on my standard Discovery stereo (with tape player) looses connection over bumps, and I have to push it back in every time. Is there an easy fix for this? Can't find it when searching the forum. I remember the mondeo :o LCD panel warped away from the contacts, but this...

    Standard servicing requirements?

    What about glow plugs? I don't know much about them or how easy they are to replace, but I presume they do the same job as spark plugs? :o Any air filters that might do with a change?

    And what about this?

    Just seen the thread exhaust gas valve on a tdi 300, full of interesting reading, with differing opinions, so my question has been answered. Having driven my 300TDi Auto again this morning, the power output difference between my auto and the manual I drove on Sunday isn't really that...

    Discovery 3 DVD...

    Can they not be built into the back of the headrests? I have seen this mod on other car types, and I believe it is a straightforward DIY job, using privately purchased 7" LCD monitors. I guess you have already considered (and discounted) the £140 2 screen set from Halfords? Not quite as...

    Cup holder fix and dash repair!

    Sorry, but the threads are coming thick and fast! I've searched the forum, but can't find any details on the cup holder. My cup holder won't go back in, so before I track a replacement, any tips or hot fixes for this? Also, I DID find some information on the dash repair, mine is lifting quite...

    Standard servicing requirements?

    Hi All, Well, my newly acquired 300 Tdi has not, according to the paperwork, had a service for 18,000 miles! :eek: So, I would like to know what the servicing requirements are, as I need to do this on a budget but want to do it right. Could someone please list what should be...

    And what about this?

    And what are your views on this? Land Rover Discovery 300 TDi EGR Blanking Plate My trip back in my '94 Discovery 300 TDi Auto was great, but the acceleration compared to the TDi manual I drove this Sunday was quite weak. The guy who owned the 300 TDi I drove on Sunday told me that the turbo...

    Fortron engine additive - good or bad?

    What is the general consensus on the following engine additive? Fortron Engine flush 325ml I found it on Ebay, and wondered whether it would be OK for an engine with 100,000 miles on it.

    Well, I went and did it!

    Yep, dashboard problem needs to be fixed, so i'll be searching this site for good fixes! Picked the car up today, absolutely wonderful! The car I test drove on sunday had a rather alarming whistle from the turbo (when it kicked in) but this car, the noise was barely noticeable. Which is...

    Well, I went and did it!

    Well, 3 out of 477 isn't bad! ;) Mind you, the 3 that left negative feedback were in the wrong, but I wasn't going to let them off the hook. They left negative feedback out of spite. :mad:
