    Head gasket 200tdi

    I have had the disco for 16 months and i have serviced it twice (oil/fuel/air filters) and changed engine oil. I have only replaced gearbox/transfer/diff oil once in this time. If you are standing at the front of the disco the leak seems to be coming from the back left hand side of the...

    Head gasket 200tdi

    Did a search before i created this thread - didnt really throw up anything meaningful or not like the symptoms that i am experiencing. So hoping that the helpful people amongst the discovery community would be able to help me diagnose the issue.

    Head gasket 200tdi

    Hi peoples, I am considering changing the head gasket on my 200tdi myself - i am fairly handy with most mechanical tasks on my disco, but wondering if that is enough for me to carry out the head gasket replacement myself? 144k on the clock and starting to run a little tired now - engine bay...

    What Shocks?

    Yeah was a real git...and a severe test of patience! The disco is so much smoother now though and corners better. Well worth it though.

    stereo installation

    Mike, Look on the well known auction site for an 'apature collar' its usually listed in the land rover section, its a spacer the security cage passes through and gives you an extra 10mm depth .... which is just enough to get cables and connectors behind. Expect to pay about an 'Ayrton Senna'...

    Headlamp Upgrade

    Hi Re@per, I am just going through the process of up grading mine. You will need to get 300tdi headlights and indicators (obviousley) but also you need the 2 bits of trim from underneath the head lamp itself from a 300tdi and a front grill. I have been told that they are called 'hockey...

    rear window seals wanted

    Morning Dez, Try "Range rover heaven" on the well known auction site. The guy has a few disco's which he is breaking. I got my rears, alpine windows and tailgate rubber seals from him not so long back... and postage is reasonable too! I think they are based in Wiltshire. Next job is to get...

    stereo questions

    You can either pack up the center consol with washers to make the apature deeper or you can get a spacer collar off EBAY for a tenner which the security cage slides through, which in turn increase the apature depth by 13mm. I did the latter and all is well!;) There are other threads which...

    Fitting a new stereo

    Hello, Luckily for me the security cage which came with the stereo has the fixing tabs down to about 20mm so i will be able to secure it in place. A friend of mine is has read your post and is going to use your method of fitting the stereo as opposed to mine. Thanks all for your help!!

    Fitting a new stereo

    Thank you! i have just purchased one, Halfords told me that the stereo would fit and there was no such thing as a spacer / collar for use with this purpose.
