    Disco 1 Helicoils

    For really tight places to drill I use a pancake drill, They are readily available on eBay and used in aviation a lot, https://www.browntool.com/Listview/tabid/344/ProductID/201/Default.aspx

    Classic 1993 200TDi - Gear box or clutch?

    Exactly, if it selects all the other gears no problem then it isn’t a hydraulic problem or thrust problem, gearbox out and strip and replacement clutch while it’s out, sometimes you have to bite the bullet:(

    P38A Range Rover Any interest ulez may force sale

    You may be lucky because they are exempting the M4 upto the airport spur, obviously it depends where the APNR cameras are situated :rolleyes: I can take to a couple of country lanes to get out of the zone and it’s highly unlikely they will fit cameras everywhere,

    D2 traction Control kicks in after Diff Swap.

    A poke in the dark but any possibility that the ratio of the diff you put in is different to what came out?

    Disco 1 Stupid ticking noise

    As Stanley has said I had a similar noise on my 200tdi disco and it was the heat shield above the starter motor that was making a noise under load at about 2200 rpm,

    First time towing - Dixon Bate Shocklink WANTED

    I fitted one to my discovery in the 1990s, towing a heavy 4 wheel caravan it made it much more comfortable for my passengers, Quite amazing to watch the caravan move up and down in the rear window without effecting the Discovery, Expensive but well worth it, many horse owners used them when...

    Wet passenger floor D1

    The grommet was missing, not sure if it was ever in place, when I ordered my Discovery I made sure she didn’t have sun roofs or bars, but payed for aircon, also fitted better drains from the heater scuttle so the water didn’t run down inside the wings,

    Help

    It still could be the stalk, easiest to put a probe to the motor and pull the stalk if it lights up then you can discount the stalk, but the feeds to the motor will change polarity depending on rear washers or front so make sure when using the front washer that you are getting a earth as well as...

    Help

    On the washers front it’s usually only one motor that goes in reverse for the rear washer jet, so you probably have no feed to the motor for the front , check your fuses and wiper switch,
