Just found that you can get discs to fit where non vented ones live. they are the same width, but they drill and slot them.

Good idea - then all you need is the Safari Snorkel to help force the air through the intercooler :)

Just fitted a twistedperformance intercooler to our 300 Tdi, it is the direct replacement one that fits in the same space as the Landy intercooler, on it's own I would not like to say that it was worth the £320 but in combination with the K & N filter and the removal of the EGR valve it has...

Probably no help at all but just worth checking the flywheel pully as if the key way becomes worn then the timing belt socket fitted behind the pulley can become untimed, usually quite easy to see as the pully will be wobbling

Thanks for that, nah wish I had won the lottery but do have credit cards :) So I assume you split the calipers and insert the spacers? to gain enough room for the vented discs, umm suppose I better get prices for new calipers to compare against. Cheers

If the problem started when the oil and filter was changed, do you know what oil was put in?

Hi, just finished a few mods to the 300 Tdi Disco, started out by adding silicon turbo hoses, then removed the EGR and blanked that off, next was a K&N filter, followed by a twistedperformance intercooler, and finally - well up to today added a Safari Snorkel to force some air in there. All this...
