I had the same problem tonight. Missus brought the car back from pony world, and abandoned it with the trailer still attached, cos it wouldn't start. Took the lappy outside, found this thread, got my LR tool kit out (hammer and crow bar) gave it a good wack and hey presto. So Thanks very much...

Hmmm, yes, Good advice. Probably solo driving to a much lower standard than capable to keep out of trouble. Just put Billing on the Calendar today, so maybe I'll be a bit braver in the right environment. Cheers.

Hi Paul, Yes that was my guess. that at the time the booklet was published, the description was probably right. But now the lane is wrecked apart from anyone with about double axle extensions. Still gave me something to talk about. Thanks.

Hi All, Thanks for the responses. I'm due for an MoT in a couple of weeks so I think ill get them done. Then I think she'll be good as new. Ready for the next bit to fall off. Bit like my Landrover hat I got for my birthday, Which has already had 3 bits fall off. Hard to imagine how three things...

Hi Dave, Sounds like good advise too me. 5mm plus movement can't be right, can it, under and load situation. I think it sounds like a good plan of attack given that the costs arn't too extreme compared to many LR jobs we have probably all had done at some point in time. Now where did i put this...

Hi andy, Thanks for the response. The Shocks bushes should be OK as they are new Monroe Shocks front and back. I feel that its a rear wheel issue, A bit like sort of a rear wheel steer. I feel that its almost like as the rear diff load changes due to the cabre of the road then the slack changes...

I like many people, I guess got the free little book with the popular LR mag last month. Found myslef in Holmfirth, having chosen an "easy one". Started down it, got to half way to find a 110 reversing backwards up the hill. "looking for a place to take tractors off road; too rough down there"...

Good evening all, I have a TD5 2002 disco whic has recently had Track rod end and steering box replaced so steering is pretty good. I feel that it still wanders around a bit and supect the Radius arm bushes that connect to the chassis of the car. I've put a brick infront and behind the wheel i...

Many thanks, I think you make a good point Yes, I was creeping up pretty slowly. as the top was a bit of a saddle which i wanted to hit square in the middle. so I guess up to three wheels were slipping in the clay, but I suppose I was surpised that the one rear wheel didn't seem to be doing any...

Hi, I've been out on a green lane today in my 2002 td5. I dont do much off roading but I've been very impressed with how well the car has coped with steep slippy climbs. except today, and I'm wonderring if i have a problem. I pulled up this steep little bank and sure enough the front wheen...
