Ok. So do you think i've buggered the bearings on 'something' by spraying water all over the engine? Or is it just a coincidence

Hi all. I washed my engine bay the other day, left it for a couple days to dry and today i fitted a new aux drive belt and i now have this loud high pitch squeek. It's not the belt as the reason for the new belt was that the old one was squeeking and its a different noise. It only does it at...

Have a look on paddockspares.com you will spend 2 grand easy, and a new main gearbox is £500+. I should get a quote for the welding first. That could be a sizeable chunk of your budget gone!

I don't know about the technical stuff as i'm still an amateur but i've had several dealings with mid cornwall 4x4 in bugle(in the industrial estate off Rosevear Road) and they have always been extremely helpful and they appear to be very knowledgeable. They are a 4x4 garage but specialise in...

Excellent. Cheers redhand. They say you learn from your mistakes and if this is true, i'll be f**kin expert soon!

Hello everybody, its me again, Captain dumb ass. Just spent 45 minutes trying to get these flamin wheel nut covers off:mad: , completely butchered one of them before deciding have a quick look in the manual... and i need a special wheel nut cover removal tool. I can't seem to find this tool on...

I've never driven through snow that deep. But i do remember reading an article questioning whether D2's have the diff lock mechanicals but no lever. Apparantly some D2's do. Might be worth looking into? I'm sure somebody on here will be able tell you exactly how to tell...

Yo dude. Paddock Spares - Land Rover, Range Rover Parts & Accessories - Discovery, Defender and Freelander www.m&m-4x4.com Or just buy any land rover mag and check out the adverts;)

Have a look in the common faults section of this site. Or do a search. I remember reading a massive thread on this subject, with pictures and everything!

The mod manual is ace. Great for learners like myself but it assumes some knowledge. It makes me want to spend thousands! p.s. that diesel engine manual good for amateurs is it?

Good question. I've read loads of articles about similar projects and i'll be interested to hear what people say. There are adverts in the mags for loads of galvanised chassis it might be worth giving them a call about a disco chassis? I think disco restoration will get bigger over the next 5...

Excellent. Thank you for the replies. Thats my something new learnt for today

Good Evening People, My rear wheel arches are on my to do list for the xmas holiday as they are really rusty. I was reading LRO at lunch today and on page 135 of the current issue some chap describes patching his wheel arches with glassfibre mat and resin/hardener. Sounds good but the seatbelt...

Yes.

It's not a question of do i buy a disco dude, it's which one! Try typing '300tdi vs TD5' into the search engine.

I've got exactly the same problem. Had it for a while now but i've got me MOT in a couple months so i'm gonna have to fix it. I'll be interested to see what people say ...

Do a search dude, the is more buying info on this site than all the magazines, ever. Congratulations, You have taken the first step into the land rover world

****ed on his fireworks then! Discool appears to be a 'glass is half empty' kinda chap then? If you don't enjoy your discovery, sell it. This poor chap is just trying to lighten the mood of the forum when most people are talking about problems. Good on you mate. I agree, Disco's are ace...

I'm fairly new to land rovers aswell and i think LRO is ace, the current one even comes with stickers!

I struggled to find the grease nipples at first. You just have to get your hands dirty and feel around the UJ's. There are pictures in the haynes manual.
