Hi guys, driving along in my Citroen C3 (I know it's not a Landy but I've also got two Disco's...so there !) the other day and BANG !! one of the spark plugs blew from the cylinder head. Repair bloke says I need to have a heli-coil put in, workshop recommended a sleeve coil (or something like...

What a sad state of affairs indeed. I bought the exact same model, S reg for about 7 K nearly four years ago. Is the 4 x 4 market likely to go back up again?

Wotcha' all, First off the motor is a 2002 Disco TD5 ES auto, Well it seems my little problem wasn't fixed after all. Back in the winter I was topping up the water + anti freeze all the time and there were a whole range of suggestions as to why but once the spring came along and the heater was...

Hmm, got a message from the breakers, they can't figure out how to remove them either. Haynes manual says naff all about em... time for my chainsaw :D

Thanks Raz8, would G10 compound be better as it's black paint, also I'm going to use a buffer attachment on the drill, should I use lambswool or can you recomend anthing better? Cheers Alex

Ha ha, not far off how they got damaged in the first place!

Hi all, I'm intending to replace these damaged headrests but I can't see any obvious way of removing them, any one done this and how? It's a Disco 1 (300 series). Cheers Al

So here are the pictures, as you can the scratches haven't reached the primer but are still unsightly. Is it wise to go it alone with either a halfords scratch repair kit or touch up paint pen from Land Rover? What ye reckon ? Al

Thank you, Thank you,Thank you

I take it that it'll be a bast**d of of a job then !

Morning all, I've had these lights pop up simultaneously on my dash for the past ten or so months usually when I've been up or down a hill or when it's wet. I'm told that it's more than likely the sensors which are dirty/ need cleaning or replacing. So what do you recommend, I'm also told it'll...

I wonder how much I could buy a series 3 for...best I start looking :-)

I think so, the colour is black and I can see white underneath.

Hi Martin K, I was hoping for 9.5 k as according to Parkers. It's a TD5 ES auto, 88k on the clock and in tip top condition. The seems to be a demand in Herts but I reckon I'm in for a long wait...

Just been looking on e bay how much I could expect to get for my 2002 TD5. I reckon they've gone down a few grand in the last couple of months. Is it just the time of year or is it due to fuel prices and tax hike, what do you reckon ? Al

Hello all, some little sod keyed over my bonnet the other weekend and I'd like it patched up. The colour is plain black and the scratch mark goes from left to right, how much should I expect to pay and does anyone have any recomendations for where to go in the Herts area? Cheers Al

Well, that's a bleeding shame. I need one of them, 4 kids & 2 horses to cart around looks like I'll have to get rid of the TD5 then...can't afford £400 a year in car Tax :mad:

Hi all, I'm trying to suss out how much road tax I'll be paying with the new hikes. I've got two Disco's 1) 1998 diesel Discovery + 2) 2002 TD5 Discovery. At the moment I believe I'm paying around £210 each in car tax, how much will it rise to ? Cheers Al

Hi guys, regarding "limp mode", would it kick in if my thermostat suddenly dropped into the blue setting off the warning light ? I have a water leak somewhere. Thanks Al

Woo hoo !! Halfords have a sale on Castrol Magnatek engine oil (Diesel). Time for an oil change for both my little beauties, a) 80k on a Disco TD5 and b) 95k on a Disco 300 should I use 10w 40 or 15w 40 ? Ta Alex
