    white smoke

    Glad it's sorted. I have a question regarding white smoke too. When I start the engine up it's absolutely fine, but maybe after about 2 or 300 yards down the street I get some white smoke but it's not a massive amount, and disappears within about 5 minutes of driving. Is this normal or...

    Increasing power in my Disco.

    Think I could get a bit more. Just need a bit more oomph for overtaking.

    Increasing power in my Disco.

    Ok guys, not quite sure how to put this, my Dad's mate has told him that I can get a bit more power out of my Disco. He said: 'Only takes ten minutes and all I have to do is take 'something' out the engine and turn it a quarter, then put it back in' Anyone have a CLUE what he was on...

    Wipers won't switch off, any advice?

    Ok guys thanks. I'll obviously try the easier option first, but taking the steering wheel off doesn't sound too bad if required. I'm reaping the rewards of Land Rover ownership already lol!

    Wipers won't switch off, any advice?

    Ok cheers. I'll find a guide for this as there is an airbag in the wheel. If it seems manageable I'll try it myself, if not I may need to get this done in a garage.

    Disco purchase tips(& encouragement?)needing!

    I'm no expert but I would advise shopping around also, and haggle. I have a 95 Disco with just 94000 miles on it, and so far it's fantastic apart from the wipers not wanting to switch off, but otherwise it seems sound. I managed to pick that up for £1200 on Friday night there, plus it has 7...

    Wipers won't switch off, any advice?

    Looks like it may be the switch going by the older topic I found. How easy a job is it to change it?

    Wipers won't switch off, any advice?

    Hi guys, so far so good with my new Disco, just one minor annoying niggle. I can put my wipers on but they wont go back off again until I switch the engine off. I'm not very mechanically minded but was thinking this may be a faulty relay/switch or something? Anyone else any the wiser...

    Newbie checking in

    Hello, welcome. I just joined the other day and have also just picked up my first Land Rover (95 Disco 300TDi). So far I'm loving it, a lot more easy to drive and park than I thought it would be, my previous car was an MG ZS so this is a big change. Only niggle so far is the rev counter...

    I've just put them in the gallery in my profile. Changed my profile pic now tho so hopefully that'll work lol.

    I'm James. HI :)

    Got it, and it was a joy to drive home. Pics up. :)

    I'm James. HI :)

    Everything sorted out now thankfully. Here's hoping I'll own my first Land Rover by tonight. Looking forward to it, never had a 4x4 in my life. If I get it i'll put some pics up. :)

    I'm James. HI :)

    Ok, thanks. It seems to be a bit of a guessing game with this one. The car I'm looking at has the ES style alloys and air con, but it doesn't have a 'fancy' trim as other ES models I've seen. Really like this particular car I've seen but my insurers are being very pernickity lol!

    I'm James. HI :)

    Hi guys, have never owned a Land Rover before but I am eyeing one up at the moment. Its a 1995 Disco 300TDi (Seven Seater) Needed a bigger car for the kids and this seems a nice alternative to a regular people carrier. However I need to know whether it's an ES, XS or S model for...
