Ta all for the advice I'll go have a look for a letter later when I get home and see how expensive that route it before I resort to the socket and hammer, cheers Reds!

Problem number 2 (of many no doubt!) with my new purchase.... Previous owner lost the locking wheel nut key so I now can't get the tyres off. Anyone know of a 'easy' way to bodge getting the old locking wheel nuts out without damaging the alloy?

No there isn't any unusual vibration felt anywhere whilst driving which is why I was asking as I found it a bit strange. I'm going to get a mechanic mate of mine to give it a full service anyway in a few weeks to see whats what and I'll mention to him to have a good look at the prop shaft.

OK so today I picked up my first Disco and drove it 300 miles back home and had this big smile on my face for the whole 5 hour journey!! However during the whole trip the gear stick was vibrating sideways quite badly all the time regardless of gear in use, revs or throttle position. Is this...

Hi Guys, First post be gentle please! Going to look at a Disco2 TD5 this weekend, but it's a bit of a high miler with 150,000 on the clock on a W plate. I've had a search on the forum for things to look for and I am armed with a list to take with me, this forum is a fantastic resource! It...
