When you say gritty feeling do you mean like a vibration if so it sounds like your abs is kicking in

If the wire from that brown plug goes to your seat then you do

Its just a easy to replace it. Four bolts if my memory serves me right.

Things to look out for .Chassis ( especially at the rear) .Leaking Sunroof .Ace pipes ( these can leak and can be costly) .Fuel pressure regulator I'm sure there is lots I've missed but if you do a search there is loads on what to look out for.

You probably have the optikool glass thus why don't need the blinds.

Bearmach is ok, message them and ask what make the filters are :)

Thanks must be decent if they supply Shell.

I rang four motor factors which are local to me and only one could supply it which was in 1 litre containers.

Yeah it was about double to get it from a main dealer, its just that I've never heard of smith and Allen oil and was hoping someone had used it. :)

I've been pricing some mtf94 gearbox oil up, I've got two Td5's to do and a 300 tdi the cheapest I've found is Smith and Alan which is about 45 pound for 10 litres, has anyone used this or is their another brand I should be looking at.

More than likely plus he also had a cigarette in is hand

This reminds me of when I was parked in town with the engine running to keep warm when all of a sudden this bloke told to me to switch the Disco off the cheeky fecker

Yeah there is two plugs behind the switch panel but nothing on the seats so i would need the elements it might be worth trying a breakers maybe

Well I had a look at my seats and there is no brown plug at either end and that's a Disco Landmark did yours have them ?

Citezens advice may be able to help?

You can get them on eBay, if you put your location their might be someone near you who has one, You could go to a dealer but I'm not sure what that would set you back.

And my old boys is an 02 plate.

If the plugs are underneath the cubby box you can, also the heated seat setting in the bcu might need enabling with Hawkeye or Nanocom too.

My dads Xs is half leather and has heated seats if that helps.
