    OK - new issue! Given I might be one of a half a dozen people in North America that drives a diesel Landy and I plan on keeping this until I am cocooned and buried in it I will soon be looking for a rebuilt 300 TDi to slip in. I am going to start asking around here if anyone can rebuild but the...

    key fob

    Guys - thanks for the advise. Euro models ARE different frequency than those in North America, which I found out. I was able to contact a guy in the UK who sent the programmer along with a new remote. In 30 seconds I had a new remote (along with no changes to the old remote - i.e. it still...

    97 Disco Rear Lamp Guards

    Howdy Folks - I bought the left and right rear lamp guards for my '97 Disco but without the mounting kit. I've been looking to hell and gone to buy the kit itself without the lamp guards. Anybody have a source?

    New to 300TDi

    OK Folks another question. My roof top manual windows are beginning to leak into the headliner. Thanks to nicedayforit and your provision of the manual I was able to discern these windows have a drain pipe(s). I would hate to take out the entire headliner to unplug these pipes (At least I...

    New to 300TDi

    Thanks all. I googled about the pet cock (or draincock). It appears that vehicles not made in the U.S. do not have them. I drained the radiator by pulling off the bottom hose, as suggested. And thanks for the answers on the repair manuals, winch and the purchase of the new turbo vice the...
