    Budget Rebuild

    Well after stripping it down I realised I couldn't afford the bits I needed to rebuild... so I finished uni, got a job and hopefully will be making some progress now. The engine's gone from this to this I bought the alternator mount kit from steve parkers and started on the repairs...

    300TDI discovery for sale

    The spares worn out but the rest have got a good few mm left on them. It does look like they need a bit more air in the pictures though. Do you think it's too expensive then? I'm not really sure what its worth

    discovery 300tdi windows help please

    When mine was doing that it was the switch that was dodgy, they are easy enough to pull apart and clean up. But if youve swapped it for a working switch and its still not working it could be the ECU you can pull them apart and resolder the joints if they are dry.

    Budget Rebuild

    Yeah I've been washing the parts when I've taken them off, it's at an aunts garage and she's out most of the time so she just left me with keys for the garage so I havent got any water there. @NiteMare I read that it leaked a lot of oil from the rear crank seal if I didnt put a few bolts in the...

    Budget Rebuild

    Well the engine's out now and I'm prepping the 200tdi to go in. I've drilled out and taped the holes for the studs but i havent got a drill big enough to bore out the other holes. If I grind a slot into the casing so the bolt fits will mud and water get in and destroy the clutch? Am I better...

    Budget Rebuild

    The coil is missing and it hasnt been run for a few years but it does turn over so guess i could just get a new coil and see if it will run. It needs a new ignition switch too because I lost the keys...

    Budget Rebuild

    lol it does need a good wash its got a flat tyre and its not running though so the only way I can get it in and out is to pull it out then push it back in with my discovery. Sounds a bit dangerous on my own... I've been cleaning the bits I've taken off and eventually I'll have to turn it round...

    I've starting rebuilding a series 3 SWB and thought i would post a few pictures up and have a place i can ask all my stupid questions. I'm only a student so it will be built on a tight budget but it looks solid underneath, just really really dirty. :) This is how mouldy the windows...
